" Poetic Justice... if I told you that a flower bloomed in dark room would you trust it? "

Box Braids season is quickly approaching. I always love to see the different ways in which gals are rocking their braids; from the colors, to the styles, to the length and size. I'm always intrigued by the vibe these braids let out. 

I hit up one of my Liberian friends and got my hair braided yesterday! It took approximately 4 hours from start to finish. I was exhausted by the end, and I'm pretty sure my behind was flat as a pancake from all of that sitting. But, in the words of our beloved Big Sister Yonce' ....



I gained inspiration for my box braids from searching through online images mainly via Instagram and tumblr. Check this Box Braid Tumblr page for your own inspiration! Box Braids Inspiration



Final product

Outfit Details Coming in a later post!

To achieve these braids, I used Dark Gold Blonde #27 and Platinum Blonde #613 Synthetic Hair! I used 5.5 packs of hair for $4.99 per pack at the Beauty Supply Store!


So Jaded,
JJ Willie Mitchell
