These tiny braids are super cute. With that beautifully layered length, we are all about a side part that allows gorgeous hair to fall on one side while showing off beautiful cheekbones on the other.
Medium Long Box Braids
It’s awesome to know how to do funky styles with boxed braids, but it’s just as awesome to wake up and not have to do anything to your hair at all (except maybe a little water-based moisture spray). Adding gold beads is a no brainer.
Box Braids Bun Style with a Side Plait
When styling medium box braids, you get to be an artist, so whatever you do, don’t limit yourself. You sat hours getting those things, so now you can use their styling potential to the fullest. A bun and a big side braid to start with? Yes, go for it.
Box Braids in a Formal Bun
For a look that’s all yes I’m going somewhere, swirl braids into a super cute and super high bun. You can tuck the pieces under to keep the style sleek. The healthier and more nourished your natural hair is before you get box braids, the better it will look while you have them in (not to mention way less chance for damage).
Dark Side Part Box Braids
Do you know that with long braids as smooth as these, all you need to do is whip hair to one side for a sexy style?

When done right, they’re like a cocoon that allows hair to grow, giving you a break from hardcore maintenance.
Ombre-ed Black and Red Box Braids

Box Braids Pigtails
A box braid in itself is a 90s throwback, but don’t stop there. Princess Leia buns show off gorgeous features and add a whole lot of spunk to any outfit. Easy to achieve, this style will look amazing with tube dresses or tank tops and jeans.
