2018 has been the year of standing out. And one way ladies have mastered this is accessorising their braids. And we’re not talking about your average braid beads, people have taken it to the next level. From celebrities to Instagram models, women are coming up with the most unique ways to keep their hair intact, while making a statement at the same time. Think rings, beads, coloured thread and basically anything you can get to stay in your hair.
There are many hair styles, and tons of fun accessories to choose, but the beauty of it all is the creation behind the dramatic effect look. The most popular hair styles to achieve such a look are with braids, dreads or a slick back ponytail.
