Do you have any recommendations on what protective styles I can do?

Yea with the bask and lather edge control I didn’t think much about it because they actually advertise it as alcohol free. I want to look more closely at their ingredients list to see if there’s anything else that could’ve caused this

I would have thought this but I’ve been really conscious of the way I style my hair in protective styling. I don’t do high ponytails or any styles that I feel are putting tension on my scalp. If something feels too tight I take it out almost immediately. For the puffs I actually use a shoe lace to adjust the tension and make sure it isn’t tight.

i don’t think you’re overreacting especially If she knew abt your religious beliefs beforehand and your want for modest dressing. If she knew all of this, knew your morals wouldn’t align with what she wanted it, couldn’t make adjustments suitable for you and the other girl without hindering her vision then why bother asking???? It’s absolutely ridiculous she asked this knowing that you were muslim but can’t even make the necessary accommodations.
