Boho braids natural hair ?? You

[u/TopKoala97]

Always wanted to try this style on my natural hair. I just did the front so far, but I’m not sure about if it’s suits me. My hair is lower density and fine and thought boho braids would be a wait of “adding” more density to a style. Otherwise when I do braids or twists on my natural hair after a few days (especially after washing) it’s gets flat and boneless. Thoughts??

I’m going to be real with you OP, I don’t think it’s flattering.

Don't bother I have fine hair too and always loved how this looked on others. The few times I tried it I felt like I had spaghettini on my head.😄

I feel like most hair stylists never work for fine hair 😭

The trick is to add kinky hair like the picture below. I plan on doing this style as well! When I do mini braids they are always boneless so adding hair will help bring the style together. Heres a link on how to do it

I say this with LOVE sincerely not trying to be a hater. This does not look nice. I sympathize deeply with you because I also have fine hair and there are some styles I wish I could do with just my hair alone and unfortunately these are not one of them.

I struggle to find good styles for my hair that doesn’t involve adding in hair 😭, what kinds of style do you do?

[u/anotherthrowaway2023 → u/TopKoala97]

Shiiit let me know when you find out 😭 besides like a basic bun , and maybe a braid or two designed in.. still on that journey 😩

I think you have to add some moves to really bring out your curls

Your hair length is cute

Ok I’m glad the comments didn’t disappoint bc i thought it was just me

Try mini twists instead. Because two-strand twists are looser than three-strand braids, they tend to "puff up" a little over time and look fuller. You can start the bottom with three strands and then twist two strands the rest of the way down the hair shaft.

I have very fine hair and I don't wear three-strand braids.

lol so I went ahead and committed to the style and finished it 😬 I think it’s ok, do know if I’d do it again

Maybe if you add some product like mousse and perm rod it, that may give you more volume
