This may be the simplest style of box braids but this could also be the most beautiful if it suits your taste. The no-fuss simply straight box braid is a favorite of most women and I can exactly see why.

This style begins with the basic simply straight ‘do and is finished off by adding twists.
The twists enhance the look by making it a lot more sophisticated and stylish. So if you’re one who does not want to compromise classic style and modern style, this is absolutely for you.

There will always be days when we would like to feel a little bit more like a woman; long hair, more make up and girly dresses, you know where I’m heading here…
