The holidays are upon us and many naturals are looking for protective styles that will last and look amazing all winter long. Protecting your hair should be less of a chore and more of a fun practice but if you struggled on how to style your hair for Halloween, you are surely dreading how to rock it for the rest of the holidays.
Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year’s parties will be here soon so are you in need of hairstyles that will look amazing? If you want to protect your hair, but also want to have fun, then check out what we propose for protection and versatility this holiday season for your natural hair.
Extensions
Adding hair is an ideal way to create a new woman every time you walk out the door. You can have longer, shorter, thicker, bigger and even various colors of hair if you choose when it comes to adding hair. From sew-ins to wigs to braids, rocking extensions is a great protective style coupled with giving you a different style to rock no matter the length or even texture of your own hair.
Problems with Sew-Ins/Braids
The problems that arise with added hair like sew-ins and even braids are the limitations on styles (once you have that style you are pretty much stuck with it) and price. Sew-ins are extremely expensive if you want quality hair. They also can lead to neglect of your own tresses if you are not diligent about caring for it under your sew-in or braids.
Some women have been known to keep them in too long which can lead to traction alopecia or even matted hair. Sometimes the problems occur when they were simply installed to tightly and that can create hair thinning, especially along the hairline. Those are extreme cases but it can and does happen more than you think.
Try Some Clip Ins!
One of the simplest ways to change up your hair without damaging it is adding clip ins. Clips ins are a less expensive and easier hair extension method to sew-ins. They can be added, removed and re added several times as they are wefts of hair attached to clips that safely attach to the hair’s root.
Clip ins give you options that regular sew-ins cannot as they can be applied to the whole head on one day and simply added to half a head (for fullness) the next. Hair is safely braided under the clip ins (unless some hair is purposely left out) and since the clips in should never be slept in, hair and scalp get much needed air and has access to products so they never get neglected.
Kurly Klips!
I cannot discuss how amazing clips in are without discussing a favorite brand of naturals, Kurly Klips. Created for a need, Kurly Klips are curly textured clip-in hair extensions that give women of color the power to rock their hair however they want as often as they want. With the holidays in full view, it is time for some versatility that will not sacrifice your hair in the process. Here are a few reasons why Kurly Klips are a great way to spice up your holiday hair and parties:
Versatile: Kurly Klips allow for you to wear them with some hair out or no hair out. Easy to install and remove, the clip ins change up your style even without having to re-braid your hair underneath as they can be placed for wearing down or installed for a high bun or ninja bun. The styles are endless!
Several Hair Types: Kurly Klips come in four different styles with TWO BRAND NEW STYLES:
NEW – My 3C Curls
My 3C Curls is a beautiful option between the My Fro Collection and the My Spirals collection. The curls are lightly kinky. And the ends? Springy and delightful. If you love a good kinky curl pattern, but don’t want to put in the work to get it, then this texture is for you.
NEW – My Kinky Straight Blowout
My Kinky Straight Blowout is designed to mimic your natural hair through rain, sweat, and humidity. So give it curls or iron it bone straight.
Chic Fro (Shoulder, Bobcat or Mermaid)
Spiral (Shoulder, Bobcat or Mermaid)
Play with color: Kurly Klips can be dyed so you are never over processing your hair with chemicals no matter what color you feel like rocking.
Long lasting: Kurly Klips will last anywhere from three to twelve months depending on your care as they need to be nurtured, washed and taken care of just like your natural hair.
The right price: This is the ultimate DIY hairstyle so no need for a pricey salon fee for installation and they are all well under $200 for each unit.
Easy to install: No need for a stylist as these clip ins are easy to install and quickly too. Whether you get a friend to assist or DIY, Kurly Klips will have you ready in no time for any holiday party and allows for several ways to rock them according to your mood.

Thank you Kurly Klips for sponsoring this post but as always, the content and opinions expressed here are all my own.
These extensions look amazingly natural. I would love to rock the kinky straight so I can wear staight hair without having to worry about heat damage.
That's an excellent idea. Thanks for entering and good luck!
My hair has been thinning and I'm trying to nurse it with protective styling. These look like an excellent alternative to weaves & wigs!
They actually are. Good luck and thanks for entering!
I have been dealing with hair loss since I gave birth to my son. During the pregnancy I had long thick hair , and I experienced hardly any shedding. As soon as he came out so did my hair..lol…These clips would be perfect for hiding my thin spots as I grow my hair back!
Great idea and good luck!
I want to win! These would be great for those days when i don't feel like dealing with my hair…
Yes, and easy to install. Thanks for entering and good luck!
I love the spiral! Looks nice and like a great protective style. I'm so boring when it comes to hair so I would love this. -Betsy
Ain't nothing wrong with 'boring'. Thanks for entering!
I like them all. I don't know how it will make the holiday better.
Just feeling great with your amazing clip ins will make a great difference. Good luck!
Please i really want to get it apart from entering the competition. How do i?
The only way to participate is to entering the competition. There are several ways to enter.
I have an autoimmune which is causing my hair to fall out in spots (lupus) so I love the idea of finally finding clip-ins that match my hair texture! It will allow me to let my hair breathe while being able to treat my scalp conveniently and without adding too much stress to my already weakened tresses. I am really excited about trying them!
I am sorry to hear about your disease and do hope you the best of luck and thank you so much for sharing.
I love it! Getting the opportunity to use clip ins without having to straighten my hair.
Yes! One of the best reasons. Thanks for entering and good luck!
I've never wore a wig let alone a clip, but I have been wanting to wear my hair straight without any damage and these clips look amazing. I would love to rock them.
Yes, rocking straight hair without worry! Good luck.
Thanks for sharing this nice post which in keep motivating us.
