Hot and spicy! This is for blondes who love a little pop of color. With this, you can still have blonde with a little bit more fun. The box braids are very trendy, and adding the red makes it so much hotter.
Any advice for someone considering it?
I think any one looking for a little adventure should definitely give the box braids a try. However, I wouldn’t recommend it to a person with fine baby hair as it would pull a lot. I highly recommend it to the ladies living on the edge full of raw wildness. This is definitely a style that you can wear many times and could last 3-6 months. Washing and maintenance are very easy.

How would you describe this look?
This box braid hairstyle is not considered to be elegant. I would say, it has rather an ethnic touch and fits an energetic personality with the soul of a wild girl. I personally like the small wooden beads which accentuate the overall impression and create an original wild style.
Any advice for someone considering it?
Lifestyle, as well as the fashion style, is crucial. Hair color is actually not very important. The ethnic effect may be conjured on any head when using the natural shades of Kanekalon Hair. I always recommend my clients to choose such a combination that will make them feel good.
Big Box Braids

How would you describe this look?
These red big box braids are a protective style that would be great for someone who is going on vacation. It is easy maintenance and gives you a goddess causal look with the pop of color and curls.
What I like about this style is its versatility. You can wear it all down, up into a bun with a few curls hanging, or pull a few braids up into a ponytail with the back down and it would go with any attire!
Any advice for someone considering it?
This style normally lasts about 3 months without the curly hair, but with the curly hair, it would last about 1-2 months. I use Kanekalon braiding hair to braid the client’s hair and Free Tress crochet hair for the curls, so you can cut the curls out if need be. The triangle parts are very hot and unique therefore edge control is used to define the parting. This is the most popular style for this upcoming summer!
Dark Red Box Braids

How would you describe this look?
It’s a side part triangle box braid perfectly tucked to give the full burgundy effects. The triangle part was perfectly parted and neatly and tightly braid to keep the tucked hair to make the style last longer. It’s a protective hairstyle for all women to prevent their hair from being exposed to harsh weather and prevent damage to the hair. The style lasts for at least 1-2 months depending on how the hair is managed.
Any advice for someone considering it?
Before going to a stylist, it is preferable to have your hair washed and dried without any oil/cream in it. Also, it’s important to ensure the stylist you are going to won’t pull too tightly and won’t use a lot of hair extensions, so it doesn’t put too much strain on your scalp or pull out your edges. Overall it is a very good box braid hairstyle – less painful and beautiful if done the right way.
