Like so many daughters from the Diaspora, I started relaxing my hair when I was a teenager. I didn’t know any better than that it was a rite of passage and I was happy to have my Afro straightened.

During the summer hair needs to be protected from the heat of the Sun. Regardless of the protective style you choose, it’s important to look cute and effortless. Protective styles are great ways to not only minimize exposure to hair but the keep hair out of the way so you stay cooler in the heat.
