Looking for someone wanting box braids done, only on natural hair and ideally Afro/ Afro Caribbean hair, will be doing this discounted as want to use it as a session to try and time myself. This could take anywhere between 4-8 hours. Please remember, I am not a professional but I am trying to get to a good standard, this is currently just a hobby of mine I am doing on the side 💜

This was my first try of braids with extensions on myself, loved the natural colours, chunkier braids but still liked them, surprised myself with the amount I improved from this attempt to my current style 💜

Did my first trial of box braids on someone today. No I didn’t get them all done but definitely did it quicker than I did my own, also very long due to the extensions used, but had some help from the customer 😅 love love love the colour that was picked and looked so natural! Cannot wait to finish this style. I am thinking this length extensions will be a 2 day booking though 😬💜

Tried Dutch braids with extensions for the first time today, the first one was absolutely awful, but happier with the second one. Took longer than expected, but want to thank my bestie Hannah for letting me try on her and having the patience to deal with my meltdowns during 😂 still a work in progress for sure but practice makes perfect 🤞🩷💜

Welcome to bRAEds! I’ve decided to make a hobby of mine a part of my lifestyle, I’ve been braiding my own hair since I was 13 and really enjoy doing it. I’m wanting to help out others and offer my services to those who would like their hair styled. I am new to doing this on other people but really wanting to make something out of this! Please feel free to message me with any questions you may have!

Here’s my most recent achievement I did on myself! 💜💜💜
