Sizzle & Slay SPF
It’s summer: time to take cover from the sun with hats, shades and sunscreen for your skin. But don’t forget to protect your hair from the heat and humidity. You should also give your hair a rest from regular combing, brushing and manipulation with SPF.
Your summer protection factor (SPF) can be stylish and sassy with options like clip-ins, braids and buns. For most SPF styles, your hair is braided down with additional hair installed or attached to the style. You wear the protective style from 4 weeks up to 3 months (but we don’t recommend longer because your natural hair can’t be combed). And the best thing is that you can choose the one that suits your lifestyle and needs. Here’s a little help to pick the one that’s right for you:
