A solid braid is an enduring hairstyle that almost never goes out of style, and is one of the most versatile hairstyles you can create. While it suits just about every hair type—from thin to thick and everywhere in between—bride-to-be’s with thin or fine hair may want to avoid double braids in order to avoid looking too flat on the big day.

We hope that we’ve provided you with some insights into how to tackle some of the most common braiding issues. And if you’re still not sure where to go, we’d be happy to point you in the right direction: come by our studio or book an appointment online . We’d love to see you! But in the meantime, don’t forget to check out these braiding styles for yourself. They might just work out better than what you’re doing now.

The best and healthiest thing to do for your hair is to avoid damaging it. This means giving it the time it needs to relax, be nourished, and grow. As much as you’d like quick fixes and fast results, they aren’t realistic here: it could take some time before you see a significant difference in your hair’s length. But when you do, it’ll be well worth the wait. And if braid-outs and protective hairstyles are what you want, certainly give them a try. Just be sure to use all recommended products and treatments while they’re in: there will likely be a learning curve at first, but ultimately these are healthy methods that can help keep your hair strong and beautiful without risking damage.

You can create endless versions of this style by switching up the colors. You can also change up your pomade consistency and its shine output to achieve different finishes. For example, you could switch a greasy formula with a pasty one to achieve a matte finish like Zayn Malik’s. If you’re short on time, just tie it down in the back with an elastic. It’ll look slick!

Future generations will remember these teen years as a time of incredible transition for humankind. But, more importantly, they will look at this as the period that initiated a new attitude towards humanity and nature. They will see it as a moment in which our ancestors began to walk in balance and harmony with nature and really took ownership of our place on Earth as human beings.

I’ve had so many things in my life that I have kept to myself, I’ve had so many insecurities, and felt like I wasn’t good enough–and this goes for everyone. It’s easy to do that when you’re always around people who compare themselves to each other. Let me tell you though, there is a special place in hell for those people who are sabotaging another person’s confidence because of their own insecurities. Sometimes we can be our worst critics, but what happens when we don’t surround ourselves with supportive people? Or even worse, what happens when we surround ourselves with haters? Unfortunately we can’t pick our family or friends at times, but that doesn’t mean we should lose hope and give up. I’m lucky and thankful for all the love and support I have around me, especially from the people who really get me and lift me up when no one else does. And because of that, I don’t have time for anyone else who isn’t on the same wave length as me.
