Maintaining her hair may take a backseat regarding daily tasks, like carpooling or afternoon pick-up, but keeping up with its styling should remain on your list of priorities. Braids remain timeless looks that always look stylish!
Create an elegant look with the Dutch braid
Create an elegant look by braiding a fat Dutch braid across the crown for a stylish, sophisticated look. Be sure to use a smoothing product to combat frizz and keep her locks shining and healthy!
Try box braids for versatility
Box braids are one of the most renowned hairstyles among black women. They can be worn in various lengths and are highly versatile. Play with part placement, add color or accents, and even accessories like cuffs, beads, or rubber bands for extra character and dimension. Add a fun spin by incorporating curly accents!
Keep your hair clean before getting box braids
Before getting box braids done, make sure your hair is thoroughly clean. This will help avoid build-up and matting and make washing them later easier. Use PATTERN’s clarifying shampoo to remove product, sweat, dirt, and grime from your scalp and tresses.
Sophisticated cornrow braids
Cornrow braids can look sophisticated without needing intricate patterns. Small cornrows that gently cascade into soft, loose curls create an elegant look. You can also braid them in a circle for an ethereal style. Add beads for extra pop and dimension.
Beaded braids for character and sophistication
Beaded braids are an easy and stylish hairstyle that adds plenty of character and sophistication to your appearance. Beaded braids come in various colors and sizes and are perfect for dressing up cornrows and other protective styles. Beads can be placed at either end for a soft vibe or evenly distributed throughout for a bolder appearance.
Elegant bun for a sophisticated style
If your little princess has long braids and desires a sophisticated style, she can quickly wrap them into an elegant bun. Add beads or cuffs for flair, or dye the braids a funky color for added flare. Braided buns make the ideal protective hairstyle for special events and can also be worn as everyday wear if she has long, thick locks.
