Black and Purple Braids

Purple is an eye-catching hue, particularly on dark skin, which looks beautiful when worn in braids.

It makes an eye-catching protective style ideal. Make your purple braids even more dramatic by pairing them with black shades. A combination of dark purple and black in a zig-zag pattern or even more subdued hues such as purple and brown will create an eye-catching style and draw everyone in the room’s attention! This unique and creative color mix will stand out from other braid types.

Princess Leia Bun

Princess Leia’s iconic saucer buns have long been one of the hallmarks of Star Wars hairstyles, first donned by Carrie Fisher herself during all four of her films and now carried on by Billie Lourd in Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker. Lucas and his team can never say precisely what inspired the coiffure they designed. Still, a post-it note pinned to an inspiration board at a Smithsonian exhibition on the Star Wars costume design process showed some references: soldaderas from turn-of-the-century Mexico as well as Native American Hopi women who wore their hair in “squash blossom whorls.” Whatever its source, it has since become one of sci-fi’s most beloved feminist symbols and is worn by fans across age groups to express a sense of independence and individualism.
