New School Year = A fresh start and a new look
Soon you will have one less thing to think about, and that is what you should do with your hair on the first day of school. I say that because this list will provide a wide range of hairstyles, from box braids to wigs. You should be able to leave this post with either a few hairstyles in mind or your definite new style.
Let’s begin with the first back-to-school hairstyle, a beautiful combo of box braids and cornrows.
