In the summer months every girl is looking for a way to keep a bomb hairstyle with less effort. Not only that, we are looking for something low-maintenance during the hot months while in the pool or on the beach.
Here are 3 protective styles that will last two to three months that I recommend for a low maintenance, fun and effortless look for the summertime.
Cornrows

Cornrows are a great protective style that can last two to three months if taken care of properly by wrapping your head with a silk scarf at night. Cornrows can be worn straight back or in a design or pulled up into a ponytail. For added length, try the feed-in method that can give you a more natural look with less tension on your edges. Be sure to follow Kay kay Green YouTube for more instructions on the feed-in method.
If you’re taking a vacation to a tropical beach this will be a great hairstyle for you. You don’t have to worry about it messing up when wet and you can dress it up with a flower for a more feminine look.
With a NH Beauty Supply Box Braid Kit you can create a cornrow hairstyle look with ease.
Marley Twist

I can say a lot about the Marley twist hairstyle. This hairstyle blends effortlessly with your natural hair and can be maintained by re-twisting every other month. Marley twists can be achieved with NH Beauty Supply Marley Twist Kit, that comes with five bags of Afro Kinky Marley hair, styling gel, bone-tail comb, and duck-bill clips.
I recommend this hairstyle because the twisting technique used to install, has low tension on the scalp and the best part is that you can make them large or small and they still look nice.
Glue-less Full Lace Wig

Last but not least, we have the Glueless Full Lace Wig. If you are going to be traveling abroad for 2 to 3 months I would recommend a full lace wig. Lastly, Once the wig is installed and styled this look is low maintenance and easy to take off and on. I know this hairstyle is a little more expensive but it is well worth it. A full lace wig, for those who don’t know, is a human haired wig with a brown tinted laced base that blends seamlessly with your scalp. Laced Wigs are becoming more popular due to the versatility of lengths and textures.
For install, your hair will need to be braided flat into cornrows. A wig cap will be placed over your cornrows, and then the wig will be placed on the cap. This way the lace will not rub directly against your scalp. Lace can be damaging to the hairline.
Most importantly, remember to have fun with whatever style you decide to rock in summer. Let NH Beauty Supply make choosing your next look easy.
