Stuck on what to do with your hair? Well, this one’s for you.
Being in a hair rut—or feeling nervous about trying something new—is not just a you problem. We’ve all been there. And at the Twist & Go Salon, we see Curlfriends like you every single day.
You know it’s time to ditch the frazzled look and get your hair done, but you're unsure what style to choose—or if your go-to look still fits your vibe.
The first step? Knowing when it’s time for a style update. Next? Finding the perfect style to give your hair the glow-up it deserves.
In this post, we’re breaking down the signs it’s time for a switch-up and sharing trending protective styles to make choosing your next look easy (and exciting!).
Signs You Need a Style Refresh
You’re seeing split ends and noticeable damage (book the appointment Curlfriend).
You’re bored of your usual styles.
Your current style has outgrown its shape and become hard to manage.
Your hair feels limp, lifeless, and lacks volume.
The compliments have slowed down (we get it—it matters!).
You’ve worn the same style for a year or more (sis, it’s definitely time).
A new season calls for a new vibe.
You’re making lifestyle changes—including with your hair.
How Protective Styles Can Support Your Hair Goals—and Turn Heads
Protective styles are more than just cute—they’re functional and powerful. These styles tuck your ends away, limit daily manipulation, and help you retain moisture and length. If growth, strength, and less stress are on your list of hair goals, protective styles are your go-to solution.
Think of them as mini bodyguards for your strands—letting your hair thrive while you do the same. And don’t confuse “protective” with plain. Today’s styles are bold, trendy, and built to turn heads and protect curls.
From twists to braids, protective styles give you versatility, low maintenance, and high impact.
Twist & Go’s Signature Styles: What’s Trending This Season
We’re right on the cusp of spring and summer—and these styles are heating up:
Goddess Braids Elegant, dramatic, and finished with curly ends—perfect for
soaking up sunshine in style.
Two-Strand Twists A Twist & Go favorite! Low-maintenance, versatile, and effortlessly chic for the season.
Faux Locs Get the loc’d look without the long-term commitment. A boho-chic vibe with serious staying power.
Bantu Knots Bold, beautiful, and packed with culture. This statement style never fails to slay.
Ombre Knotless Braids Soft roots + pops of color = a style that’s easy on your scalp and big on personality.
Why You Should Switch Up Your Look Professionally (vs. DIY)
We love a DIY queen—but here’s the tea:
Pros of going pro:
Your stylist helps choose a look that fits your face, hair type, and goals
They’re trained in the latest trends and techniques
They’ll pamper you with top-tier products and a luxury experience
Yes, salon visits require time (and coins), but the results are unmatched—and often save you time and stress in the long run.
Pros of DIY:
Saves money
More control over your schedule
Great for learning new skills
But real talk? DIY can come with a learning curve, limited tools, and inconsistent results. If you want a flawless finish, professional styling wins every time.
