Almost every new trending hairstyle has a braid involved in it. So many different styles and ideas to choose from. If you know how to make a braid you are half way there. Here are the top picks to make a statement in braids.
Boxer braids: These braids are feminine but at the same time they give you an edge. They are called boxer braids because female boxers braid their hair like this before a fight. So you know, it's got a "bad" girl feel to it.
Fishtail braid: Something our mothers would have tried on us years ago, but it wasn't in style so it never caught up! But, the style is back and how. Fishtails are to die for! A little complicated but once you get the hang of it, there are so many new styles to try!
Messy braid: If you don't like putting an effort into your hair, this is the style to go for. A scruffy, messy braid is super sexy and easy to do. Always keep this one loose and looking "naturally" messy.
Braided band: Another in style braid is a braid band. You create an illusion of wearing a braided hair band on your head. You could try this at the back of your head or in the front. Either way, this look can pull off as elegant and chic at the same time.
