Beauty & Fashion
Summer is a time to make the most of being outside. However, as fall welcomes us with open arms, we naturally return to nights in, protecting our peace and hair. Fall braids are on the rise as the latest hair trend of the season. The colder temperatures can be quite drying for some hair types, and it’s always best to protect our hair the best way we can.
Braids can provide the moisture our hair needs to thrive all year. That said, we’ve provided some fall inspiration braids that could make you fall in love with protecting your tresses.
Floral Braids
Why settle for regular braids when you can spice things up? We love these box braids with flowers to add a refreshing feel for fall.
Boho Braids
Boho braids took over the summer, and it looks like they’re here to stay for the fall season. This style is a perfect way to get that “blowout feel” without risking damaging your strands. Get boho braids and enjoy living heat-free!
French Boho Braids
French boho braids are cousins to the classic boho braids. Both styles look very similar but are slightly different. French boho braids are woven with a straighter texture, giving an effortless feel, while boho braids have a wavy, beachy look. French boho braids could be for you if you want an Emily in Paris moment.
Straight-Back Cornrows
Straight-back cornrows are a protective style that never gets old. They come in handy when we’re not in the mood to sit in the salon chair for hours on end. This style is convenient and always gives a “cool girl” feel.

An ombré style is the perfect way to add color to your life when things get routine. We love the natural ombré braids that bring us right back to life. The best part? There are no limits! Pick your favorite color to blend into your hair.
Mini Twists
Sure, they’re not braids, but they’re just as good. Mini twists are the little sister of braids. They give us the protection we seek while allowing us to enjoy our natural strands. You can try mini twists and mini braids with your natural hair to satisfy your needs.
Crown Braids
It's another summer staple that is just too good to end. Crown braids are making their way into fall, and for good reason. They allow us to show off our forever-approved face cards. And because of this, we rightfully approve of this style.
