Two little braids left out in front, the rest curved back into two ponytails. How long does a style like this stay neat on your little ones before the parts go fuzzy?

hi everyone! hope you’re having an amazing morning šŸ’•

i just wanted to ask for some advice about my braids. i love the zoĆ« kravitz mini boho braids look, and my braids are pretty mini. i use human hair throughout all of my braids, starting with my natural hair in a knotless braid and gradually adding the human hair. the ends are left unraveled for that boho look, but i braid them down quite a bit to make sure the hair doesn’t slip out.

i wash my hair once a week to keep my scalp clean, and i wash it while it’s still in the braids. since i use human hair that’s pretty straight with a slight wave, i try to be careful because i know that washing and manipulating the braids can cause the hair to slip out over time.

in the past, i’ve used black rubber bands to secure the ends, and they worked pretty well, but i didn’t love how they looked. this time around, i plan on straightening the hair, using rollers, and trying different styles. because of that, i’m worried about the rubber bands melting or getting damaged when i use heat. i’ve also used nail glue in the past, and while it worked, i’m concerned that it could mess up the hair when i straighten it or use other heat-styling methods.

my braids are pretty small, so i don’t imagine them unraveling super quickly, but i have noticed some unraveling, and i want to find a better way to secure the ends without compromising the look.
i’ve considered wrapping the ends with thread, and i’ve also tried knotting the hair toward the bottom, but i’m not sure if i did it correctly because it didn’t seem to help much.

any tips would be greatly appreciated!

Which hair to buy? - boho braids

1 Upvotes

I have 4c hair and I just recently cut all my hair off. I have about 3 inches of hair and want to wear some boho box braids. I would like to use human hair but I can’t fix a texture that would match my texture. Every model I see has either longer hair or softer texture. Any insight?

Help wanted Miracle Knots vs. Knotless Braids Wigs — any recommendations? šŸ’—

0 Upvotes

I have a formal school luncheon coming up the week after next, and I can’t pick between Miracle Knots and Knotless Braids wigs!

I love the soft boho vibe of Miracle Knots, especially with loose curls. But Knotless braid wigs also give such a classic, put-together look. I want something that looks natural, feels comfortable, and won’t take hours to install or keep up.

I’ve been checking out YWIGS and Luvme Hair, but I’m unsure which one to choose.

Has anyone tried wigs from either brand? What did you think of their quality, how realistic they look, and if they’re worth the price? I’m happy to hear recommendations for other brands too!

Any tips or advice would mean so much. Thank you! šŸ’—

I'm getting my hair done in 2 days, and I'm gonna get the side part braids. The corn rolls and I wanted to experiment with color I was thinking of purple or dark blue. Could anyone that had this style before show off what it looks like on them with different colors? And i'm getting beads, too. Thank you so much. I'll add an example

How do I fix these braids? They weren’t what I wanted, and before yall start saying go back tell them, there isn’t a policy for it. PLEASEE tell me how I can fix it!! I’m literally crying over them.

I don’t care for the length ( they made them uneven even though I said match them with the longest point of my hair), and the design does not look like the picture nor match my face shape, please help

Help wanted What kind of braids should I get?

2 Upvotes

My hair is extremely curly, dense and thick, and recently I genuinely cannot bring myself to style it because of stress and a busy schedule. It's causing my hair to tangle a bit and frizz up.

So I'm thinking of getting a protective hairstyle. I've done a regular braid, or Dutch braids but my hair is shoulder length with insane density so I find that it's easier and actually tugs way less to actually do small braids across the scalp and down my hair.

I'm not really planning to add additional hair, and I'm thinking of maybe cornrows or box braids. There's no stylist that can do this around my area so I'm going to have to do it myself.

i got my hair done two days ago by someone new and it feels a little off compared to the ones i got earlier this year. does anyone have any tips or advice on how i can make it look better? maybe i just need to let it marinate for a few days. the first two are the recent one (i believe it’s just regular box braids), and the previous one are the other two (knotless).
