![| Mamas, do you have a go-to protective style for your littles? P's braided ponytail isn't doing it for us anymore. 😂 I had honestly forgotten how much I used to braid her hair [yep, I can braid] when she was younger, and when she started school last year + playing soccer every weekend, I honestly just didn't have the time anymore.

With winter coming, I'm definitely going into #protectivestyling mode so get ready for allll the braid tutorials over the next few months + check out #theprinceandthepbraids to see all the different ways I've protected her hair over the years. 😍 // #theprinceandthephair](http://scontent-lax3-1.cdninstagram.com/vp/d1df2f3927a41a28898a81301c0906e8/5C8C6641/t51.2885-15/sh0.08/e35/s640x640/44769794_1143707759119815_146175357919740045_n.jpg "| Mamas, do you have a go-to protective style for your littles?

![| I keep getting soooo many DM's about what I'm using on P's hair now since I dumped 70% of our hair product stash [toxic 🚫]. Honestly, it's been a struggle finding low porosity hair products with clean ingredients I can trust, but I'm currently using @organigrowhairco products + have been pretty happy with the results. My faves are their Growtein Free Deep Conditioner + the Low Porosity Hair Dew, but for this pic I also used the Mega Mangrow + Curling Custard. #NOTsponsored I also went back to basics by incorporating ACV rinses + honey into the kiddos regular wash day routines + scalp massaging with an ayurvedic oil (more on that soon!) 4-5 times/wk. I will keep you guys posted! // #theprinceandthephair #organigrowhairco](http://scontent-lax3-1.cdninstagram.com/vp/c430ee182fb542d4bedfd3790fa2f926/5C7AC62F/t51.2885-15/sh0.08/e35/c0.134.1080.1080/s640x640/43772857_501303017056513_618864197113268937_n.jpg "| I keep getting soooo many DM's about what I'm using on P's hair now since I dumped 70% of our hair product stash [toxic 🚫].
