Some days I just don’t have the energy to take my curly hair out of its pineapple to wash and style. I relate to the attitude of the Lazy Natural, but I still want to show my personal style. This protective style updo will eliminate all those extra styling steps–and best of all, no one can tell.

All you need is a pack of braiding (kanekalon”> hair from the beauty store that blends with your natural texture, along with some bobby pins, and two minutes.
