Which kind of braid is your favourite?

Hey! This thread needed to be revived.

I love 4 strands braids. They always look intricate. Plus they look awesome with ribbons/lace/fabric.

Flat four-strands are also gorgeous, but I can never get them to stay FLAT. I'm thinking of trying it with ribbon/yarn one of these days, though.

My favorite is the only braid I know how to do.

The English braid. It works. Could be fancier, but eh.

I tend to do dutch braids (pigtails pinned into a bun at the nape of my neck) or a four-strand on a weekly basis. Four strands look so pretty (that ribbon photo is lovely), I'm trying to figure out five strands though!

I find that dutch braids are easy to do and look pretty. I always have trouble doing french braids

I like English and French braids. I would love to learn waterfall one!

I LOVE fishtail braids on long hair! I'll be able to experiment more when I get passed APL. Lol.

French braids! They look tidy and sophisticated and they are so versatile. I do prefer a Dutch braid when braiding along the base of my head from one side to another mind... Think it just looks better. Waterfall Braids are another favourite of mine too

I like the plain old English braid the best. There are fancier and more sophisticated braids, but the English the one I like the most.

For wearing myself, a Dutch braid. For looking at when other people wear them, herringbone braids and rope braids. They always turn out really fuzzy when I try to do them, all those little hairs sticking out. Waterfall braids are also lovely, but I always screw them up.
