Happy National Braid Day! What, you didn’t know it was a holiday? It is, and it’s the perfect one to get creative with your hairstyle. In the summer, we can sometimes fall into the habit of wearing the same side braid hairstyle over and over. As gorgeous as side braids are, it’s nice to switch things up and try other hairstyles. There are lots of other braids that are just as stunning and simple to do.
