There’s something magical about goddess box braids. The combo of cascading curls and intricate braids always makes me swoon. Lucky for me (and all the other goddess-braid lovers out there), we’re celebrating the iconic style on this week’s episode of The Braid Up with this stunning stitch braid version by stylist Omobolanle Ajao. Ajao laid this stitch-braided look all the way down in today’s episode, so I highly suggest taking a moment to peep the whole process in the video below. This masterpiece nods to the curly cornrow looks that dominated red carpets in the early 2000s (I’m looking at you, Beyoncé), but it still feels super fresh and modern.
