How much shedding is normal after you remove a protective style? Use this picture as a reference.
When wearing protective styles, I recommend keeping them in for no longer than 6-8 weeks.
Why?
-Your scalp needs a thorough cleansing by then
-Your leave out needs a break
-You don't want to stress those edges
-Your hair definitely needs a treatment and maybe even a trim at this point
If you have finer strands, don’t opt to wear protective styles for longer than 6 weeks or so. Doing so can cause the weight of the extensions to pull your hair out from the root. OUCH!
How long do you usually leave your protective styles in?
