Protective Styles: A Great Way for Fine Hair Ladies to Grow Hair and Retain Length
Protective Styles for Fine Hair
Ever wondered why your fine strands won’t grow past shoulder length? Well, often times you may be causing damage to your hair without even knowing it. Here are ways that you may unknowingly be causing damaged hair:
1. Wearing your hair down every day (leads to rubbing against your clothes or necklaces causing breakage)
2. Sleeping at night with your hair uncovered (best to sleep with a satin or silk scarf)
3. Sleeping on cotton pillowcases (best to sleep on satin or silk pillowcases as cotton zaps the moisture out of your hair)
4. Wearing tight ponytails (using ponytail holders made of cotton)
5. Over usage of direct heat (curling irons, flat irons, blow dryers, etc.)
These are just a few of the ways that we can cause damage to our hair. It is vital for fine or thin hair women (especially women of color) to keep their ends well protected. The reason is because as women of color our hair has a natural curl pattern which means it has the tendency to be dry, fragile and more susceptible to breakage. One way to prevent damage and retain your length is to incorporate protective styling into your regimen. Protective styles protect your ends and keep them hidden. The main goal is prevention from the hair rubbing against your clothes or from other damaging elements. Protective styling also keeps manipulation at a minimum resulting in better growth and retention.
Protective styles which are great for thin/fine hair:
1. Roller-sets (my favorite)
2. Soft up-dos
3. Wigs (another favorite)
There are other protective styles such as braids, ponytails, buns, and sew-ins. However, from my experience they are not always the best for growing fine hair long or for retaining. If you’re going to use these take extra care of your edges.
I didn’t know there were ways to protect thin hair. I am forwarding this article to my mom.
