Box Braids
This style features tightly braided strands of hair, commonly known as box braids. The braids are sectioned in a grid-like pattern, creating a structured and uniform appearance. This style is versatile, allowing the wearer to explore various braid sizes, lengths, and parting designs to suit their preferences. Box braids are a popular protective hairstyle that helps to minimize damage and promote hair growth, making it a practical choice for many individuals.
To achieve this box braid hairstyle, start by thoroughly cleansing and conditioning the hair. Part the hair into equal sections, then use a crochet needle or braid tool to neatly divide each section into smaller, equally sized subsections. Braid each subsection, ensuring the braids are tight and uniform in size. Adjust the parting and braid placement as desired to create the desired grid-like pattern. Secure the ends of the braids with small rubber bands or beads. Maintain the style by regularly applying scalp-nourishing oils and rebraiding any loose sections as needed.
