#1. Braids/Twists

I initially started doing these with extensions and graduated to doing them on my own hair. Box braids are a wonderful style for growing out your hair before the transition chop. Twists with or without extensions allow you to have your hair in a ponytail or bun and still take care of your hair.  Video tutorial here!

The main thing is to ensure you moisturize your hair really well. A water-based spray is a good daily move. And wrap your hair with a satin scarf at night. Above all, rock it like Solange!

#2. Roller-sets/ Straw-sets

These are styles you can do with or without heat being applied to your hair. This will help you to blend your new growth with your relaxed ends. Roller-sets take quite a bit of practice to do by yourself but you can still pamper yourself with the occasional salon visit for these.  Video tutorial!

Straw-sets give a more shrunken curly style to get your friends and family more used to you with curly, springy hair!

#3. Buns and Updos

Okay, these were my main stay for the first year of my transition. They are so easy to do and you can hide a multitude of fluffy hair days! Just spray with a water -based moisturizer, smooth back with a bit of gel and you're good to go!  Video tutorial (sock-bun) here!

#4. Wigs

Long hair, short hair, curly hair, straight hair... you can achieve any look in seconds! These are the ultimate protective style. You can be very realistic with these and you are still able to see your hair every evening. Half-wigs allow you to blend your hair with the wig even better.
Remember to wear a good wig cap and keep moisturizing your hair every day!
Video tutorial here!

#5. Braid-outs/Twist-outs

Again, these blend your new growth with your relaxed hair and gets people used to seeing you with thicker, bigger hair! Enjoy! Video tutorial!

These styles that you talked about are all nice. I know that I am not a credible source of information and date regarding this, but I really do find them good. I feel like they bring out the best out of all of these. If we think about it, it is these styles that can make us feel more confident with ourselves. I know that it is not that easy, but believe me, it is better than nothing, believe me.
