Hair Question .:All Comments are Welcomed:.

I love being on a HHJ. One of the hardest parts of my journey is hair retention. In addition, I have suffered with my failure to protective style. I can never commit to a protective style. It never last long. Sometimes, they do more harm than good.

So my question is:

Can a person have a successful HHJ without protective styling?
(When I say successful, I mean retain length and healthy hair???

Please help me with this, because I believe that I may abandon protective styling altogether.

Thanks,
Alexis

  1. i think it depends on how long you protective style, maybe shorter intervals helps them to retain length.

  2. I think that there are "levels" of protective styling. For example, I'm a low level protective style bun kinda girl. Its easy and quick but still gives me access to my hair. Although I adore high level protective styles like braided extensions and wigs---I just can't commit to hiding my hair for extended periods of time. I haven't had as much retention as I wanted (Is there a such thing as too much retention? Ha-ha!), I'm still retaining length fairly well.

    Great question. It's really got me thinking!
