How to Do A Natural Hair Protective Style with Clip Ins

If you don’t like wigs or sew-ins, try clip ins! All you have to do is prep the clip ins for the style you want, clip them in, and go! That way, you don’t have to worry about failed hairstyles. The key is getting clip ins that best match your hair texture so you won’t have to over-manipulate your own hair by trying to blend it with the extensions. Ladies, I hope this curly afro hairstyle with bantu knots and braids, gives you another protective style option for your natural hair!

Step Three

BLEND

To blend, just do two strand twists on your damp hair and then let it air dry, but the twist makes your hair more defined than the extensions. So smooth your fingers down the length of your hair to try to loosen it a bit and then give a little tussle so that it could naturally fall with the clip ins.
