The summer heat might feel great at the beach, but it can bring issues for naturally textured or chemically relaxed clients that have to deal with unwanted shrinkage or frizziness due to humidity. To give your clients hair a break from constant heat styling, recommend protective style options that best fit their lifestyle.

 

Styles such as cornrows, box braids or goddess twists help keep natural hair moisturized and the ends protected with little daily upkeep. Protective styles also promote healthy hair growth since the hair isn’t being manipulated as much. To get you and your clients ready for summer we stalked Instagram to find some protective style inspo, so keep scrolling ‘cuz these styles are straight FIRE!
