How many times have you had your hair combed with a root braid when you were little? Surely when you think about this hairstyle, the figure of your mother patiently brushing your hair, putting it up with great care... and putting on your favorite bows comes to mind.

Well we have very good news. The hairstyles with braids They seem not to have disappeared and, thanks to them, we can relive the good moments of our childhood and adolescence.

You already know that when it comes to style and trends you have to thank the celebrities. They are always the ones who rescue past hairstyles or fashions and send them to us as if they were something completely new.

Far from pining for childhood, this type of braids manages to give women a lot of power, very much in line with the female characters in your favorite series. A very clear example is the series of Game of Thrones, which although it is a few years old, we always have Daenerys and Cersei's hairstyles in mind.

Now it's time to make this hairstyle yours!

1.

Start the braid from the roots by brushing the hair very well so that it is completely untangled and it is easier to pick up the strands of hair. Try to cover the junction of the extensions with your own hair.

2.

Depending on where we want to start the braid, we will take the front part of the hair (the root), where the braid will begin. To change your look on different occasions, you can try starting the braid at the top, or on the sides.

3.

We divide the strand that we have selected into 3 parts to start making the braid, the rest of the hair will be loose.

4.

It's time to start braiding your hair. To do this, we will add strands of the rest of the hair to the initial 3 strands. In this way we will join the braid with the rest of the hair. We repeat the process until we join all the hair up to the ends to our braid.

5.

When you have the entire head part done, tighten the strands well and continue making the simple braid with the rest of the hair. Use a comb and hairpins so that the braid is always tight and not a single hair escapes.

6.

Another option is to leave part of the hair untied. Knot it with a transparent elastic band or the same color as your hair. With the rest of the hair, you wave it with the help of a hair straightener and hide the elastic of the braid with a hairpin between the hair.

7.

To fix the entire look, you can apply a little hairspray (without going overboard) so that the braid lasts perfectly all day. Or if you prefer, you can ruffle it a little to give it a more effect. Boho Chic.
