1. The Faux-hawk

To achieve this look, section your locs or braids into 3 down the center of your head. Tie each section up into a ponytail and then wrap each section into a bun. For this look in particular I swooped the front ponytail and wrapped the hair around the middle bun. I secured the style with some handy-dandy bobby pins.

2. The Halo

To achieve this look I parted my locs down the middle. I placed one half in a ponytail to the lower side of my head, near the back of my ear and I placed the other half in a ponytail to the upper side of head near the front of my ear. I then took both ponytails and braided them. Afterwards, I wrapped one around the perimeter of head until it connected to the other and did the same with the other ponytail and created this halo. I of course secured the style with bobby-pins.

3. The Swoop/Up-do

Honestly, I'm not sure how I achieved this birdsnest atop my head. It just involved alot of bobby-pins, but it wasn't complicated at all. It's a great style if you want to go for a care-free yet chic, boho look.

4. Bantu-Knots

To achieve this look, I separated the front of my hair into four sections. I then put each one into a rubber band. I proceeded to twist each section, then wrap them around to create these bantu-knots. Again, I secured them with bobby-pins.

5. Top-Knot Bun

This look was simple to achieve. I just put my hair all the way up towards the front of head. I then wrapped the hair and secured it towards the front.

6.Pig Tails

Y'all know how to do this lol.

Okay, so there you have it. If you find yourself bored with braids or faux locs, here are a few ideas. I hope this post inspired you, now go slay and snatch souls!
