Very common hairstyle for women (and men) with curly or frizzy hair, braids offer endless choices of look. For little princesses in the making, you can add pearls, bow ties, colored elastics … everything you need to sublimate their hair and their face. Here are some ideas!
What possibilities with braids! Glues, box braids, long, short … There is something for all tastes and all colors. They also constitute wonderful protective hairstyles. What do we mean by protective hairstyles? These are hairstyles that allow the hair not to be handled for a while, which gives them the ability to push.
Be careful, however, not all protective hairstyles are created equal and some, carried out excessively, can even damage your hair. The weavings and the additions, not to name them, must be carried out every three months or more and don't be too tight.
The risk of repeated too tight hairstyles is to break the hair follicle and lead to early baldness. Once the hair follicle is pulled out, regrowth is no longer possible.
