Africans, both male and female, have exceptional interest in braids. This is mostly because it is their natural hairstyle and looks very beautiful on women no matter the age.
For all you care, a simple braid will cut down a lady’s age by 10 any time, any day. If you are skeptical about the shape or size of your heads, take a deep breath because all you just need is to choose a style that fits your face shape best and there are a handful of styles at your disposal.
Long braids
Because they are long, they give you that adventurous look any day. You can make them tiny or big, loose or tight. To add glamour, you can pick a colour off the regular black and brown. For instance, wearing it in purple, wine, blue or even yellow will give you that unique look and stand you out in any crowd. You can also braid it as Bob Marley or twisted style.

Intricate thick cornrow braids
This is the latest trend among braid lovers. It is braided geometrically, leaving gaps in-between the braids. This style showcases the volume and beauty of the hairdo. It is one beautiful style that is simply perfect for everyone and any occasion. One good thing about this style is that it affords you the opportunity to flaunt your big earrings and showcase your well- made eyebrows.
Simple plaiting
If you choose to go the simple way, then, the all- back, pony tail and bond-up styles are just perfect for you. You can get more creative by adding a strand or two of contrasting colours.
