8 Quick & Easy Ways You Can Style Your Box Braids

I enjoy my natural hair in different styles such as twist outs, mini twists or goddess twists. However, sometimes I want to switch it up and put it in other styles. These are styles that I wear year-round and they include senegalese twists, kinky twists, feed-in braids or box braids.

 

Typically, the way I wear my box braids is down or half up half down. But when I get box braids or senegalese twists installed, I keep them in for 6 to 8 weeks. As a result, I need to have my hair in other styles including half up half down, or ponytail or bun.

 

 

 

 

Here are 8 different ways you can style your box braids.

 

 

 

1. Bantu knots & hair down
