Boho Braids are a modern variation of traditional box braids—an African protective style with roots across West and Central Africa. The “boho/goddess” finish adds loose curls to the ends and throughout the braids, a contemporary twist that keeps the protective benefits while offering a softer, lived-in look.
Boho braids, short for bohemian braids, are a protective hairstyle that combines traditional braiding techniques with loose, wavy, or curly strands to create a relaxed, natural look.
Unlike other braids that focus on precision and symmetry, Boho braids embrace a perfectly imperfect appearance with loose, tousled tendrils and a carefree vibe.
