Honey, crown braids are leveling up with strategically placed beaded accents that catch the light with every turn of your head! The intricate pattern frames your face perfectly while those beads add just enough sparkle for both everyday and special occasions.

Natural afro layers are a go-to style for adding shape and movement to textured hair. This cut helps prevent the dreaded “pyramid shape” by giving the afro dimension. Layers make curls pop, creating a fuller yet more controlled look.

It’s perfect for women who want volume without heaviness. Plus, it frames the face beautifully while celebrating natural texture.

3. Bantu Knot-Out Waves
