Waist-Length Classic Box Braids

Box braids are a protective style that works best for those with medium to thick natural hair, since your strands need enough strength to hold the braid tension and weight. Tell your stylist the braid size you prefer and the exact length. these extend well past the waist. Maintenance is straightforward: keep your scalp moisturized and wrap your braids in a silk scarf at night to reduce frizz. If your hair is fine or fragile, you might want to skip this one to avoid stress on your roots.
