Protective Styling - Braids and Twists.

Updated: Dec 15, 2022



This month our service of the month is braids and twists. We are in love with the versatility and protective benefits of both braids and twists. Whether you chose to use extensions or not they are a great way to switch up your style while still looking after your hair. Both styles are great for the colder months as they can protect your hair against drying out in the colder temperatures and keep your ends tucked away and protected against the use of heaters and radiators.

Braids and twists are becoming very popular amongst both women and men as a versatile, protective style, with many men and women opting for extensions to add a little extra length to their style. Braids and twists with extensions can be very versatile as they can be tied up and last longer than braids with just your hair.



Braids and twists can be sprayed down with leave-in conditioner 2 to 3 times a week to help keep your hair soft and conditioned in the braids. A scalp oil can be applied to the roots to


How can I maintain my hair while it is braided or twisted and keep it looking fresher for longer?


- Use a braid or sheen spray to keep hair and scalp moisturised.

- Protect hair at night whilst sleeping by using a silk scarf.

- Cleanse using a dry shampoo if necessary.

- Remove and renew every 6 – 8 weeks.


So, if you want to try some braids or twists this month, give us a call to get yourself booked in or drop us a message on our Instagram page @thhairsanctuary.
