    Thumbs up ~~~ 101 PROTECTIVE Styles ~~~

    ETA: It seems Essence has removed or moved most of these photos, so I've updated the links.

    I came up with this list some days ago and figured I'd share it with y'all. Pretty please add to the list ... It's not quite one hundred and one (I think) but hopefully it gets there.

    ****** Thanks to FindingMe, rhlong, Conqueror_aka, Justkiya and others for their great additions. !

    Since protective styling helps with length retention, I figure this compilation will be useful for many of us who are trying to reach our length goals ... and who get stuck in a style rut.

    SLEEK & SIMPLE (for long hair, some for short/med hair):
    - Classic Bun (http://photos.essence.com/galleries/...ns/image/34621)

    Wow, this was very nice of you. I'm transitioning (10 months) and I'm running out of options. This really helps.

    p.s. I joined BHM when you first started transitioning. I'm pretty much a lurker on most hair sites. (No stalker) But anyway, we have similar textures and I really thought I wouldn't be able to maintain my hair during transitioning. You really kept me going.

    No problem, ladies!! Yes, thank the Lord! I was running out of protective style ideas (and was bored at the time) so I decided to see how many I could think of and find on the net. It seems like there are endless possibilities!

    Thanks for the welcome, Wheezy!

    Hey MissCooth! Wow really? How long do you plan to transition? Good luck on the rest of your journey. You can do it!!

    I tried to send you a PM to respond, but something went wrong. Anyway, I don't know how long I can take these two textures but I want to give it at least a year so maybe the first week of June I might cut it all off. I'm so confused , But thanks, I'm going to try to stick with it.

    Compiling this must have been a lot of work. Thanks a lot for sharing.

    This is great! I agree, it should be a sticky.

    I was just wondering how I should style my twists, because I do not want to take them out. I think 2 buns with hairsticks will do!
