Show off your fro with a style that looks straight out of Los Angeles – hard part with soft side fade. Add an eye-catching twist to any look with a blonde braid for an eye-catching touch. This bleached style looks particularly sophisticated when worn with a sleek cut hairline.
Mini Ponytail
For dances and formal events, sleek ponytails add an extra element to your look. As seen on Camila Cabello, this chic style can highlight any color changes within your hair if it has an ombre style. To achieve the look, part your hair in the center before gathering a section from each side to tie into a low ponytail; add a headband to hide any elastic bands if necessary. This half-up, half-down hairstyle works well day or night and complements any afro texture. The loose lower section frames your face perfectly while adding interest with clips or embellished headbands like those seen on Janine Kerr and Rosemary Monica. Furthermore, this look pairs perfectly with cornrows or Fulani braids!
Asymmetrical Afro
This medium afro style features subtle yet eye-catching asymmetry that adds interest. An asymmetrical haircut can take many forms; often by altering one side to have different lengths than another or by simply growing out specific areas (such as bangs) longer. Asymmetrical haircuts can also be enhanced through hair color. This particular look incorporates soft pink dye with blonde locks for an eye-catching asymmetry perfect for summer.
Twisted Halo
If you want a beautiful halo braid but find mornings too hectic to manage them properly, this twisted variation could be just what’s needed. Similar to French braiding but using only twisting the strands instead of wrapping them around each other and pin them behind your ears as in French braids – finished off with a generous spray of hairspray, this look strikes the ideal balance between glamour and casual. Be it for bridal style or everyday chic, this is one of the best halo braid hairstyles for medium hair. The look is highlighted by an eye-catching combination of texture blonde balayage and an oversized flower crown to complete its beauty. This stylish way of improving a low ponytail without using additional hair accessories is an elegant way to elevate its appearance without adding unnecessary accessories. Perfect for formal events and weddings where you want to stand out, teasing hair before braiding will give an added texture and volume boost!
Protective Style
Are You A Naturalista? Protective Styles Can Stimulate hair Growth! When it comes to naturalistas and their haircare regimen, protective styles can be extremely helpful in maintaining length. Protective styling refers to any style that protects natural strands from manipulation, heat or environmental factors – such as manipulation or heat exposure – thus helping prevent breakage or tangling while simultaneously increasing length retention. Braids, twists and faux locs are popular examples of protective hairstyles which are both easy and accessible at home. Space buns are an easy, low manipulation style perfect for protecting the ends. Add extensions for more volume or simply opt for a high bun if this style doesn’t suit you. No matter which protective style you select, it’s essential that your actual hair receives adequate care during wear. Failure to do so could result in tangling, dryness and breakage – which would hinder growth! For optimal hair health use a moisturizing shampoo like Rosemary Mint Strengthening Shampoo as part of a regimen to nourish strands while they grow back in.
