Intricate Cornrows with Bangs on Natural Hair + Review

The Style



Check out Anisa's new style! I created this intricate cornrow with bangs style this weekend. I must admit that I did not have this in mind when I started. My original plan was to create an updo but I ended up changing a few things and this was the outcome. 

I started on clean, detangled, moisturized hair. I banded her hair in preparation of this style in the following way: 


I began braiding the left side first and made my way to the the right side by braiding from the front to the back in each section. 



For clarification, let's say that there are three sections. Section 1 was placed into a low bun in the back and secured with hair pins. Section 2 was formed into side swept bangs and secured with hair pins. Finally, Section 3 was left to hang and wooden beads were added for extra flair. 


Anisa received so many compliments for this style! Another option is to form another small bun on the right side instead of letting the hair hang.

It's Review Time!! 


We recently received this beautiful jewelry set from Zuri Designs by Seleana. Isn't it beautiful?? The Afro Puff Zuri Girl jewelry set includes a necklace and matching bracelet. The Zuri Girl earrings are sold separately. I love the set so much, I ended up purchasing another set for a friend!!

  11. Hey, Love! So glad to have found this blog! It's awesome!

    I sent you an email not too long ago but I didn't think about simply posting my question here lol

    Anyways, I'm 23 years old and I am really lovin' that banding (preparation) style you made. I was wondering if it would be age appropriate for someone like me to wear.

    Thanks so much!
