Two braids turned boho chic! Keep it simple and effortless by sectioning hair down the middle and braiding the hair starting at the base of the neck. To get the effortless, boho vibe pull the braid out a bit after you’ve secured it to get the oversized shape.

French pigtail braids have been a classic hairstyle for years. Now, they’ve gotten an update! Braiding the hair in an oversized dutch style really changes the feel of pigtail braids. That, in addition to, wrapping the ends of the braids into buns at the base of the neck. This is SUCH a chic look.

Similar to the previous two braided style, yet different. Styling oversized dutch braids with a center part has quite a few options! This time instead of tying the ends into braids, they brought both of the braids into the center with a ponytail to complete the look.

How cute is this hairstyle?! Start by creating a center part and sectioning the hair to each side. Braid each side into a French braid until reaching the nape of the neck. Secure the braid with a hair tie and then using a part of the hair to wrap around the hair tie. Go down the ponytail a bit and repeat, then repeat one more time to get the bubble effect.

Typically when we think of braiding hair we often automatically think of styling hair in braids that are symmetrical.

Our jaws dropped when we found this two braided hairstyle. We’ve shown you a few pigtail French braid styles but this is a completely different take on the style. Double stacked braids is the new double braid. The way you create this look is by leaving a small piece of hair out of the dutch braid when styling, after you’ve secured that braid you then braid the small section you left out and secure that over the first braid.

Two French braids styled into pigtail buns?! Yes, please! This is such a cute and unique way to style hair to keep it half up and half down.

Who says you have to choose one braid method in a hairstyle?! We sure didn’t! Instead of sticking to just one way of braiding hair combine them for a completely unique take on French braids. Here, they’ve combined the classic dutch style French braid at the top of the braids and worked into fishtail ends.

Add an edgy vibe to your perky party ponytail by styling braids onto the side of the head. Start with creating the sections for the braids.

Two braids wrapped to the back of the head is a different way to pull just some of your hair away from your face. Instead of the classic braid, style the pieces in a fishtail braid for the edgy twist. Once you’ve braided each side, secure it in the middle with a fun ribbon! The ribbon adds a completed touch to the look.

Two braided hairstyles don’t always have to mean two French braids with a center part. We adore this take on styling two braids into one hair style.

We adore this free flowing two braided hairstyle. The braids aren’t perfect which makes them perfect for the look. Loosely braid hair starting at the forehead and bringing back towards the middle of the back of your head. Leave some pieces free at your face to frame and give the undone feel.

This look is the epitome of effortless, relaxed hair and we love it. When you want minimal effort in your hairstyle but also want to look cute – this is your go to look.

We don’t know about you but we really love an asymmetrical take on two braided hairstyles. Ponytails are always a great option when you just want your hair pulled back.

Bring the braids to the very ends so they come through the ponytail.

The great thing about braids is their ability to add great texture to a hairstyle. This hairstyle, without the braids has that gorgeous beachy texture we all know and love but when braids are mixed it in gets some additional edge to contrast the beachy feel. Fishtail braids are a great way to give depth to your hair.

Isn’t this hairstyle so edgy and fun? Add this edge easily to hair that’s straight and sleek by sectioning the hair on the side of the head and braiding two evenly sized braids. Stop the braids around the ear area with clear hair ties so they blend in.

This outfit is similar to the previous but the way the braids are sectioned off makes it different, and provides a whole different aesthetic. Start with a strong side part, then create a diagonal part so you’re left with two triangular shaped sections of hair to braid. Braid those sections all the way to the end and curl the rest of the hair.

Short hair women! We found this two braided hairstyle for you. Another thing we love about braids is how versatile they are, regardless of your hair length you can rock braided hair.

Notice how the shape of parts can really change the way braids look? This two braided hairstyle is similar to some we’ve shown you throughout this list but the triangular shaped parts is what elevates the style and makes it look different from the rest.

Keep it classic, chic and sleek with this hairstyle. Two braids that are brought into one single bun gives the feel of a much more complicated hairstyle. The good news? It’s not! Just section your hair, braid and secure the hair into a loose bun. Voila!
