. . . with no results.
For the past several years, I've almost exclusively worn my hair in low ponytails/buns. Yet, I did not experience the massive growth that protective styling is supposed to bring . . . if anything, this style caused me to lose some of my edges and to have breakage in the back of my head. Now, admittedly a lot of this is because of my own poor hair care (lack of a regiment and knowledge about how to maintain healthy hair). But I'm wondering - will using these styles help me now that I'm armed with greater knowledge (about moisture, protein, etc.)? Or, should I try to find a new protective style? Or should I just get my hair braided to get me over the SL hump?
Thanks for any insight and advice!
