We have seen an uptick in videos and pictures of naturalistas rocking ‘curly braids’ or ‘Goddess Braids‘ or ‘boho braids’ on natural hair all over social media and we had to share a few of our favorite looks.
If we were to attempt to define the style, it’s simply boxed braids on natural hair with tendrils coming from each braid.
And ..GIRL it’s cute fr fr.
@teerachelle_ recently shared pictures of hers along with a video.

@sashazhane i love these!! they’d be too short for my liking on curly hair so i blow dried first then added product to the curly pieces for less shrinkage ???? #goddessbraidsnaturalhair #bohobraidstutorial #naturalhair #fyp
The style is very easy and can be manipulated in whatever way suits you.
We do however recommend starting out on freshly washed hair, so that the base of the style is neat and you can layer fresh product.
Use a Mousse or gel to mold the style and a rat tail comb to create your parts.
You can blow dry your hair so that your braids have less shrinkage, but this isn’t a requirement.
Watch @sashazhane give a few tips about her method:
