hair braiding is an engaging way to express individuality while protecting one’s natural locks from breakage and increasing length and health.
Box Braids
Box braids are an effortless way to express yourself. Style them for casual everyday looks or formal events, and experiment with different partings or patterns to give yourself a new, trendy style!
Fulani Braids
Fulani braids were popularized by Alicia Keys in 2020 and are back into style again for 2020. This stylish hairdo uses long feed-in braids with various thicknesses to create a striking, eye-catching look.
Faux Mohawk
Faux hawks provide an easy alternative for those who wish to experiment with hairstyles similar to mohawks but have yet to be ready to shave their sides. You can create this look by creating fishtail braids from each ponytail and then pinning them together at the center.
Wavy Zig Zag Braids
Pink zig zag braids offer the perfect way to add fun color and style to any look, looking fantastic on all hair lengths. This adorable stitch braids style features two zig-zag patterns that meet at the top of the head to form an eye-catching crisscross design that will turn heads wherever it goes.
Sky High Ponytail
Create an elegant high ponytail using TRESemme One Step 5-in-1 hair Smoothing Cream as a heat protector and smoothing cream before flipping the ends upward with a size 1.25″ flat iron for an irresistibly feminine finish. Add a gold hair accessory, like Serena Williams did, to elevate your look to celebrity levels.
Long Braids with a Pattern
Combining two sew-in braid patterns, this design offers women plenty of styling options. They can choose between having a middle or side parting and styling it into a half-up bun or updo for maximum customization.
Bold Blue Braids

Braids with Beads
Stunning braid styles will always grab everyone’s attention; try incorporating beaded braids for an eye-catching appearance this year. Beads don’t have to be in an orderly, symmetrical arrangement – try scattering or layering them on your braids for a more original appearance!
