    GlossaryBraids (Hair braiding)

    interwoven strands of hair forming a cohesive pattern

    Braids, also known as plaits, are a hairstyle created by interweaving three or more strands of hair. This technique not only serves aesthetic purposes but can also protect the hair from damage and tangling. Braiding can vary in complexity, from simple three-strand braids to intricate patterns like French braids, Dutch braids, and cornrows, each requiring different levels of skill and technique.
