What better way to protect your hair is there if it isn’t braids? Yup, Braids have been the go to protective styles for African women over the years, though it might seem like the same old box braids or twist, believe it or not, braids hairstyles have vastly evolved. So on that note, here are a few braids hairstyles you can try out this season:

Wool Braids

Or Yarn braids are the use of wool/yarn to braid your hair, the color palette is vast as wool comes in all sorts of colours.
