Protective Styles on a Budget? Yes, Please!

Protective Styles on a Budget? Yes, Please!

As the cost of living continues to rise, finding affordable yet stylish protective hairstyles is becoming increasingly important in Nigeria. The current market trend shows that good-quality human hair wigs now retail for over a million naira, making them unattainable for many. Regardless, one thing is sure: the price of a hairstyle should not compromise your beauty and confidence. This is why we have rounded up a few cost-effective options to help you look and feel your best without straining your budget.

Locs (Dreadlocks)

Locs, short for dreadlocks, can be a more affordable long-term option when considering the costs of maintaining other hairstyles. They can be achieved using your natural hair and require minimal upkeep, making them a practical and affordable choice.

Crochet Braids

Crochet braids are another excellent alternative. They are affordable and offer a wide variety of styling options. With crochet braids, you can experiment with different textures and colours without breaking the bank.

Cornrows

Cornrows are a classic protective style that is affordable and versatile. They can be styled in various patterns and adorned with beads or other accessories to add flair to your look.

Braids with Kanekalon Hair

Even the prices of human braiding hair extensions are affected; this can quickly add up, especially for longer or thicker styles. Kanekalon hair is a budget-friendly option for braiding and can be styled into different protective hairstyles, such as box braids, Senegalese twists, and cornrows.

Wigs Made with Synthetic Hair

While good-quality human-hair wigs may be expensive, wigs made with synthetic hair are a cheaper alternative. With proper care, synthetic wigs can be a practical and stylish choice.

Natural Hairstyles and DIY Styling

Learning to style your hair at home can significantly reduce costs. There are numerous online tutorials and resources available that provide step-by-step guidance for achieving various protective styles at home. Though time-consuming, embracing and styling one’s natural hair can be an empowering option.
