We regularly advocate protective and low manipulation styling here on BGLH, but we always wonder how readers actually put it into practice. We decided to check out the BGLH community forum to see how you all were approaching protective styling and we came across some gorgeous looks. Check it out;

+1 =)
Mini twist are my ultimate favorite protective style!!!
I would rock the Cinnabun Frohawk, Bun with Pompadour, Senegalese Twists(soon) and Chunky Twists.
I can’t choose a favourite they are all amazing … they need to post tutorials on all of them.
Me love mini-twist so… But all the styles are gorgeous and the ladies who wear them too ^-^
Those mini-twists would give my hair drama after the fact. No thanks! But I love the cornrows with the tuck & fold – amazing. And I love the bun and the bouffant bangs. I might have to try those. It is my wash day, and now I am inspired. :-)
I really like the second one! You have to have A LOT of hair for that one though. I used to really dread doing protective styles all the time ugh! But these are really cute.
I just started using this product I got @ http://www.thegudstuff.com. My girlfriend told me about it. She found out about it on BGLH. It has really helped my protective styling to stay sooo soft. Geez Im so glad I finally found something that works. I tried shea moisture but it made my hair sticky and product heavy. Yuk. Thanks to all the ladies who uploaded their protective styles!!! So adorable!
They are all beautiful! I have to try the Senegalese twists :)
Those hairstyles are gorgeous, and the frohawk style “Wow” just in awe of it. Did you do the style yourself or professionally done? Me I would be like a tiger just moving all in that seat, because I’m so tenderheaded.lol…lol….
Awww!!! My pictures got featured!!!! I don’t believe it! I feel so special! lol :oD
I would never wear the cinnabun frohawk but I love the twist styles!
The bun with the pompadour.
The frohawk is amazing!
oooo. . .the bun with the pomp. . .omg! Trying it NOW!
I love the first one but I can’t wear them due to baldness to the edges middle all over
I usually rock twists but right now I have my hair done in small braids.
That bun with the pomp is HOT!!! I can’t do twists, they lock up if I leave them in for more that 3 days…who wants to redo them that often…I wish I could…Is there a vid for that bun w/ pomp, tho????!!
