they're so easy and quick to do and such an excellent protective style. and black women always end up looking like royalty with them. here are some pics:

I like braiding others hair.... And mine too, but I just dont look good with braids at all, I usually do them small but it doesnt make a difference, I think my head may be too big :^/
Lucky you for being able to wear them.

Did you do them yourself? Do you have a tutorial. I will like to do similar braids before I go on my two week vacation to Hawaii in Feb.

I am seriously considering going back to braids. I love that Brandy came back out with the crochet ones.

Yours look awesome mech!

I think these are so cute on other people, but I don't think I'd look right in them.

thank you! the hair is 100 percent kanekalon braiding hair. your local bss should carry at least one brand. and if your girls are young/small head, i'd say about 8 packs.

 

[ghanagirl23]

those are beautiful I even have some in right now such a great protective style

 

[toinette]

they look great but I dont think I can pull them off. I look good in the regular pencil sized box braids though

 

[whiteoleander91]

pretttyyyy

 

[BronzyBella]

I love them too!!! I know I should take a break from braids, but I'm thinking of installing some this new year (January).

 

[reeko43]

So pretty! However, that doesn't look easy at all

This is my only hair style now that my hair is too long and thick to have 'pick and drop' (where the ends are left out), or micros - cos it would probably take 3 days! I agree with you OP its a great hairstyle cos it doesnt take ridiculously long and it can last about 3 months if you redo the hairline now and again.

Here's my pic:

I wear them all the time. But it pisses me off when the girl at the braid shop makes them too small.. I have them now but they are a little too small for my liking. I like the size of yours and that's the size I was going for... I told her Brandy/Poetic Justice braids and the heifer gave me braids 4 times bigger than micros.... Too small....

Loving these!!
I used to rock these all the time back in the day!
I just did a set of braids a few days ago. But mine are much smaller.
