| 8 Fun Protective Styles for Natural Hair This Winter |
1-3. Three Faux Classic Updos
Nyla starts from heatless stretched hair, which you can achieve by watching her other tutorial here. Other options are to start from hair that has been blow dried or roller set. All the styles in this tutorial are effortless.

Products used: Water
Tools: Marley Braid Hair, comb, bobby pins, hair tie
4. Twist Updo with Side Swoop
Even if you are not the best at flat twisting (Naturally Michy admits to not being), you can still create this look. Only one side is flat twisted while the rest is twisted.

Products used: Shea Moisture Curl Enhancing Smoothie, Eco Styler Olive Oil Gel
Tools: Clips, rattail comb (for parting), bobby pins
5. Mini Braids/Twists Into Bun
This protective style is great for those with thin (or scalpy) braids/twists. The entire video is really informative, but if you want to head straight to the tutorial, fast forward to 7:09.
