by Alice Smith Professional Writer

If we think about the cultures of the world and scroll through the pages of some History books, we will certainly find Mythology to be one of the hugest parts of our culture and heritage. Speaking of mythological characters, the Goddesses cover a predominant part in the world culture. Hence, it is not at all surprising when the fashion world found some style inspiration from the Goddesses and wanted to show them off to the world through goddess braids.

One such exploration in fashion is Goddess Braid. They might be simply defined as the thicker versions of cornrows. Besides helping you look stylish, they actually protect your hair. You can wear the Goddess braid look for weeks and continue making people feel envious. You can go for a bun, a fauxhawk or a crown braid.

Here, we’ve rounded up3-Goddess Braid looks and styling ideas.

But first things first, let’s find out what actually you would need to adorn your hair with this look at home.

The list comprises of the following:

1. Wide-toothed comb

2. Braiding hair extensions

3. Clips for sectioning

4. Hair Gel

5. Some boiling water in a bowl

· The Method To Goddess Braid Your Hair:

Wash and condition your hair well. With a wide-toothed comb, remove all the hair tangles from your hair. Now, take a rat tail comb and divide your hair into sections. Now use a sectioning clip to clip up the hair on the other side and leave the section that you've decided to braid first. Now, from the section of loose hair, pick up a thick chunk and divide it into three equal parts. Just near the hairline, apply the extensions at the centre section of the hair- one that you would like to braid first.

Allow your natural hair to fall on the hair extensions by dividing your natural hair into 3 parts. Use your hair gel to sleek down your hair and braid it for 2 stitches. With consecutive stitches, add more hair to the braid. Braid the rest of your hair once you run out of hair to add. Repeat the same process for the other sections and you are done with your goddess braided hair.

1. Straight Back Goddess Braids: Are you doing goddess braids for the first time?

Straight Back Goddess Braid is a very basic goddess braid with which you can start your hairdo if you are a first timer. They are thicker versions and can be easily done by you at home without much hassle. To bring that dazzling look, you can accessorize them with golden beads and continue to grab the attention of people around.

2. Coiled Spiral Look: This look will truly take you to the next level, and it is the best fit for a woman who wants a charismatic look. This hairdo creates a spiral effect as the braid coils all the way around your head. Apart from being a stunning hairdo, this look can help you keep off the sweat and feel refreshed especially during summer as all your hair goes up and it is away from your face and neck. If you are bored with your straight hair look, you can go for a change by choosing the coiled spiral look.
