Hair braiding can be traced back to an African origin. But today, its become a trending & favorite option in many countries. The braiding style has evolved & now we have many different options to choose from.




The listing below are the five popular braiding options in Bangalore, you can choose from.


1. Cornrow braid

One of the most popular braid styles opted for by most—long hair or short, men or women, is an all-time favorite. Here the braid is thin & lies very close to the head.

You can play around & experiment with different patterns by just playing around with the hair partition. Also, one can experiment with another braided hairstyle along with the cornrow braid, like a knotless braid, crochet braid, etc.

2. Box braids

Looking for something very low maintenance & very typical braid style, then a box braid is your answer. It gets its name because, at the root, each braid looks like box-shaped.

This can be worn as per one's convenience & style. One can choose to keep it loose or tight, long or short, even half or full. Or you can choose to keep the box hair just to half of your hair. The choice is all yours.

3. Senegalese twists

If you're the one who can't stop using hot styling tools & want to take a break from them. Then this is your go-to braid style. In this, artificial hair is attached to the root of your natural hair, separated into two strands, and wrapped down to each shaft, resulting in sleek-looking twists.

The cherry on the cake, this braid styling is said to promote hair growth too.

4. Nubian twists

For all the short hair girls who are limited on time, this one is for you. Nubian twists are associated with tight coils. It is kind of similar to the Senegalese twist but for shorter hairstyles, usually till shoulder length. It feels very lightweight & is very easy to incorporate, and it takes less time to get the hair braided in this style.

A very versatile option & if you are still not confident about braids, you can begin your braid-style journey with this choice.

5. Micro braids

While the other braid styles we spoke about were all about thickness, on the other hand, this braid style is created using very small sections of hair. It gives the look of plaits that feels & looks like one thick strand of hair. But the one thing to remember is that this braid style requires hours to style. So if you have patience and can spend long hours in the salon only, then opt-in for this. Time & money - needs both investments in this. And it lasts for up to eight weeks.

Things to consider before you choose what kind of braid you want to choose for your hair.

  1. Your hair type

  2. Your hair length

  3. Duration you want to keep the braid.

Our hairstylists at Salon Nayana, Bangalore, are experts in hair braiding. While keeping in mind these three factors & your lifestyle, they help you select the right hair braid style that will be the best for you.

It sure requires a lot of time & energy. A braided hairstyle lasts up to 4-6 weeks, depending on how well you take care of your hair.
