Braids are a girl's favorite thing in a morning where you're too lazy to style your hair. You'd just feel like throwing your Braids out of the net , pull back and head to your daily schedule.


Still on the braids talk. What do you think about pulling off corn rows braids with a very nice colored extension? I bet that's not bad at all.

Don't blame me for being so freaking partial with this color. I just love it. Have you seen any braids on this color that didn't look nice? I bet not!



This is a really color for the big box braids the wearer rocked here. This kind of braids can be pulled back, in a ponytail or simply have a gel applied lightly on your front hair line and you're good to go.

Most times, mixing up two colors for your braids are a cool way to pull off a type of braids. The outcome is usually cool and lovely.


Very loose whimsical braids for long hair. The braid that starts from mid-shaft is not noticeable in the front and looks sloppy in the back.




Long thick braided hair is a signature for African women. There are several types of braids one can opt for.


The combination and mixture of the two extensions whose colors varies is nice and very cool. Haven't tried this before.




Yeah, my color again on a cornrows braids. The braids are bigger and you know what they said? The bigger the braids size, the better.
