“How to Grow While in Protective Styles”

Hey Greaux Girl,

Braids, wigs, and sew-ins should protect your hair…

Not break it.

Growth absolutely happens in protective styles — if you care for your scalp the right way.

🔬 HAIR EDUCATION OF THE WEEK: Growth Under Protective Styles

Your hair grows from the root — not the style.

Meaning:

You can grow inches under styles if your scalp stays:

     • Hydrated

     • Clean

     • Stimulated

     • Unclogged

What kills growth in protective styles:

     • Neglect

     • Dry scalp

     • Heavy tension

     • Not oiling regularly

     • Leaving styles in too long

     • Ignoring buildup

Growth boosting routine:

    • Oil scalp 1–2x weekly with a dropper

    • Use a braid spray or hydrating mist

     • Tie hair down nightly

     • Massage gently through your braids

     • Take styles down every 6–8 weeks max

     • Clarify after takedown

Protective styles should protect, not punish.
