Holiday planning in winter is a bit challenging, especially if you have natural hair because you have to consider climate change. However, with the right preparation, you can make sure that you and your hair make the trip worthwhile by having all the necessities packed up in the luggage bag. 

Braid your hair

The best protective hairstyles when you are traveling locally or abroad are braids or faux locs. In that way, you can look good without worrying about combing every day. However, you still need to keep the hairstyle neat and tidy hence you must moisture it daily. The  Long & Lasting Braid & Dread Spray is a better option as it works best for both braids, and locs.

Hair Bonnet

Just like you cover your hair with a bonnet when at home, also must do the same when you're away. Satin hair bonnets are good for your hair as they trap in that moisture. The bonnet promotes healthy well nourished hair protected from drying and ruining your new hairstyle.
