Black Girl Hair For The Gym
The challenge feels familiar. You see your fitness goals ahead. But the idea of ruining your meticulously styled twist-out with sweat during a vigorous run feels like too high a cost. Shampoo day is undeniably inconvenient, but it shouldn’t force you to abandon the exercise routine you’ve established.
Below are 15 black girl hair styles to keep you sexy while you focus on keeping your body toned
01. Wigs
For black girls hair, crochet braids, protective styles like sew-ins, and wigs are very popular now. These types of styles allow for hair to be braided down and not susceptible to sweating.
02. Bantu Knots
Doing these on your own is a breeze, perfect for staying active. Apply leave-in conditioner and cream to each section of your knots before styling.
03. Knotless Braids
Knotless braids are a go-to style to protect hair during workouts. I recommend wrapping them up into a bun and securing them so that your braids are never in your face during intense exercising. Once you’ve finished and your hair has dried, then take it down. At VIP, we offer tons of braiding services, and hair! Stop by and check us out!
04. Head Wrap
Head wraps provide protection for natural hair during workouts, reducing the risk of damage from sweat and friction.
05. Crochet Braids
Crochet braids help keep your hair out of your face, so that you can spend more time exercising and less time in the mirror.
Embrace Yours
Embracing natural hair in the gym is not only empowering but also liberating for black girls. By celebrating their unique hair textures and styles, they break free from societal norms and embrace their authentic selves. With the right care and confidence, natural hair becomes a symbol of strength and beauty. As such, it enhances the overall fitness experience and inspires others to do the same. So, let’s encourage and support black girls as they confidently rock their curls and coils while achieving their fitness goals.
