10. The Half-Up Braid
This style keeps hair out of your face while still letting you show off your length. Take a section of hair from the top and braid it. Pin it back, and you’re done! You can even add a cute hair accessory where you secure it.
9. The Fishtail Braid
Don’t let this one fool you; it looks complicated but uses only two strands! You take small pieces from the outside and cross them over. It creates a beautiful, intricate pattern. Pulling gently on the sides makes it look thicker and more romantic.
8. The Pigtail Braids
Bring on the nostalgia! Dividing your hair into two sections and braiding them is a playful look. It’s great for casual days or when you’re working out. You can do simple three-strand braids or even fishtails for a different feel.
7. The Crown Braid
Feel like royalty with a braid wrapped around your head. You can braid sections from the sides and pin them across the top. It’s elegant and keeps all your hair neatly away. Make sure to use bobby pins that match your hair color for a seamless look.
6. The French Braid
This braid starts at the top of your head and adds sections as you go. It creates a braid that’s integrated into your hair. It’s perfect for keeping hair neat and tidy. Keeping even tension as you braid is key for a smooth finish.
5. The Dutch Braid
Similar to a French braid, but you cross the sections under instead of over. This makes the braid pop out from your head. It adds great volume and texture. Try to make sure your sections are about the same size for a uniform braid.
