Moisture-Rich Protective Style Prep Package

Protective Style Prep: Healthy Hair Starts Here

Say goodbye to dry, brittle strands and hello to hair that's truly ready for its next protective style.  I created this service after seeing too many protective styles go wrong - not because braiders pulled too tight, but because the hair wasn't properly prepped.  Without the right cleansing, hydration, and care, even the gentlest braids can cause breakage or frizz.

Our Protective Style Prep ensures your hair is healthy, supple, and ready to thrive under braids, twists, wigs, or any protective style.  Stylists love clients who come prepped - no need to wash or blow-dry, they can go straight to the braiding, saving time and protecting your strands.

Your appointment (up to 4 hours) includes:

• Scalp exfoliation - removes buildup, stimulates growth, and revives your roots
• Clarifying cleanse - a fresh start for your strands, allowing deeper product penetration
• One of the following nourishing treatments (choose one):

1. 1. Standard Deep Conditioning - restores softness, strength, and elasticity
   2. Butter Treatment - inspired by Ethiopian and Eritrean sisters and produces rich, restorative moisture (+$15 upgrade)
   3. Butter + Chebe Powder - inspired by sisters from Chad, it maximizes strength, growth support, and long-lasting health (+$21 upgrade)

• Damage-free detangling - with our Metamorphosis Scalp & Hair Therapy Oil and Moisture Lock Pomade
• Gentle blow-dry & heat stretch - preps hair for a smooth braid-down without stress
• Styling finish - a sleek ponytail or 2-3 neat cornrows, leaving your hair ready for its next style

Perfect for naturals, transitioners, children, or anyone planning a protective style.  This service doesn't just prep your hair - it protects your investment in length, moisture, and overall hair health.

After a Protective Style Prep, hair stays moisturized, retains length, and feels stronger - so when your style comes down, your strands are still thriving.
