Everyone talks about protective styles, but what does that mean exactly?

What is a protective style?

A protective style is one that keeps the ends of your hair tucked and requires minimal manipulation. Protective styles can be useful for hair growth because it gives your natural hair a break from being exposed all the time. These styles can consist of braids, twists, wigs and weave. Protective styles can be fun especially when using extensions because you can test out new colors without the full commitment.
