1. Box Braids (Best for Length Retention)
Box braids are one of the most popular protective hairstyles for Afro hair. This style involves sectioning the hair into square parts and adding extensions to create long-lasting braids.
Box braids help protect your natural hair by tucking away the ends and reducing daily styling. They are perfect for clients who want a low-maintenance style that lasts.
Benefits:
Promotes hair growth and length retention
Low daily maintenance
Long-lasting (4–8 weeks)

2. Cornrows (Best Low-Maintenance Style)

This style keeps your hair neat, reduces tangling, and protects your strands from damage.
Benefits:
Lightweight and comfortable
Ideal for wigs or weaves
