Knotless Box Braids Are the Must-Have Protective Hairstyle of the Moment
Author:Taylor BryantPublish date:Jul 11, 2019Updated onJul 11, 2019There are a couple of ways to determine whether something — a hairstyle, a popular style of shirt, a designer shoe — is evolving into a full-fledged trend. First, you see it on Instagram. Next, you see it on the streets of SoHo. Then, you see it on Rihanna. Or, maybe it's the other way around.
As for why this particular style has become so popular recently, well, it's hard to say . Figuring out the algorithm of trends these days is tricky, but both Stephen and Oludele think the interest is due to more and more women wanting a less put-together look. "People are coming into themselves and are tapping more into the natural side of their hairstyles," Oludele says. "They don't want [their hair] to look like extensions, they want it to look effortless.
All of this isn't to say that regular box braids are an inferior option to the knotless style. In fact, since knotless box braids exposes more natural hair at the root, they also tend to get frizzier faster, meaning they may not last as long as the traditional version. For those who spend a lot of their time swimming come summer, Oludele suggests considering knotted box braids. Also, since the process tends to take longer than regular box braids , some stylists may charge more.
