African-American Women Protective Hairstyles?

Hi! I am trying to grow out my hair and was wondering what type of protective hairstyles everyone uses. My hair is not long enough for a bun yet and braids thinned my hair out (even with a barrage of conditioning).

Sew-ins grew my hair out thicker and longer fast. You can leave them for months at a time, I think getting fewer relaxers and not having to bother your real hair is what makes it grow stronger and thicker.

I wear a wig. First I braid my hair (my hair is almost to the middle of my back when straightened out) then put on a satin cap then put on my wig (you never want the wig to touch your hair, the rough fibers will cause your hair to break)... I won't wear a weave because I believe the threads used in sew ins break hair and glue is a huge no-no. Tree braids, box braids add unnecessary weight and pull... so I go the lazy simple way.



I am getting tons of growth

I know it sounds old fashion ,but I wear wigs. Braids put to much stress on my hair rather putting them in or taking them out. Bonding Glue is not happening. Sew ins is just like a wig only worse because alot of times people cut your hair trying to take out the tracks. I went natural all last year. This month I put in a relaxer my hair grows slow so it is only half way down my neck. But my hair is healthy.
