Fierce Short Hair Styles for Sistas

Bring Back Braids

And I’m not really recommending the old school Brandy dookie braids that have made a comeback. They’re cute,  but just not in style anymore–plain and simple. Neither are dull, straight back cornrows. Try some braids in the front of your hair and let your hair fluff out in the back, or braid up the side and try a fun and easily manageable mohawk. Play with designs, just nothing too over the top that it can’t be professional if necessary. They’re said to help hair grow, and if your scalp stays moisturized, your braids can have a nice sheen. Braids are great ways to protect your strands, so you won’t have to fuss with them too much. And we all know a good set of braids can last a few good weeks.

*Good for promoting hair growth

*Don’t forget to moisturize your scalp

*Great for the woman who loves to workout consistently — lack of drama

*Sleep with a satin pillowcase or head wrap of some sort to protect braids and keep moisture

*If played with, design wise and not straight back, this look can still be fun and functional
