Some of you may remember this familiar face from Disney’s movie “Jump In” starring the hottie Corbin Bleu. Keke Palmer is a multi-talented celeb who’s famous for her singing, acting and presenting. She is the epitome of girly mixed with a whole lot of edge.<\/p>\n

If you’re looking for something bold yet simple, then Keke’s red hot box braids<\/a> <\/strong>are it. You\u2019re guaranteed to make a statement if you pair them with a dark lip. This will definitely accentuate your braids even more.<\/p>\n

“Red has more emotional associations than any other colour. This fiery hue is linked to passion, love and desire as well as power, anger or rage. Red is inherently exciting and naturally draws attention.” – Kate Smith<\/p>\n

2. Alicia Keys\u2019 popping braids<\/strong><\/h4>\n

There\u2019s no denying that this girl\u2019s on fire. She\u2019s gone from cute cornrows to bold shades over the years and we\u2019re loving her evolution. Make a change that\u2019s as saucy as Alicia\u2019s.<\/p>\n

A perfect blend of orange and pink braids<\/a><\/strong> are a great way to take your hair to a vibrant level. You can match it with an all black or white outfit and add some gold accessories into the mix to look extra stylish. Style them in a ponytail for that sporty look or let them loose when you’re out on the town. Whichever way you choose to style them, these braids will make you feel as fly as ever. Rock them just like Alicia does and you\u2019ll be just as fabulous.<\/p>\n

3. Nadia Nakai<\/strong><\/h4>\n

She is the ultimate girl power. This South African rapper has become known for her risk-taking and creative style. She\u2019s also influenced many women around the country. She experiments with her clothes and she doesn’t hold back when it comes to her braids<\/a>.<\/strong> Get inspiration for your look from this queen.<\/p>\n

These beaded braids are life. Instead of going all out with colourful braids, why not go crazy with some glamorous accessories? You\u2019re bound to make your inner beauty glow. Nadia rocks simple black braids and adds golden beads and charms to give them a splash of elegance. These accessories are the perfect match for a summer dress or for when you want to show off the goddess you truly are.<\/p>\n

Bead it up and be the bomb. Just add multicoloured beads to your braids<\/a><\/strong> to give off a fun festival vibe. These beaded braids will liven up your bob and bangs instantly. Don’t be shy to experiment with lots of different colours. It\u2019s your time to shine, so go for it.<\/p>\n

Green is not for everyone. But who said you have to look like everyone else? This shade speaks confidence. It says you know exactly who you are and you’re happy to express yourself to the world. Green is also known to bring growth, vitality and wealth.<\/p>\n

Nadia has added some extra spice to her braids<\/a><\/strong> by tying them into two top knots to show them off a little bit more. This look lets off a bright, fresh and summery feel, perfect for a tropical holiday.<\/p>\n

\"Justine

She’s a Brooklyn babe who has swept up the music industry with her R&B and hip-hop influenced hits. Her style is very versatile. She’s a tomboy. She’s chic. Sometimes she\u2019s even a little girly with a tomboy twist. Justine is known for her purple hair, which she rocks in all sorts of styles. “It’s become a comfort zone for me”<\/em> she says. Her purple braids<\/a><\/strong> aren’t just a random fashion statement. They go back to when she was a young girl and the only colour she could dye her hair was purple.<\/p>\n

Purple braids are the perfect trade-off between going bright and still being elegant. If you aren\u2019t ready to dive deep into colour, then this shade is a winner.<\/p>\n

“Purple is the colour for royalties. It stands for luxury, wealth and sophistication. It is also the colour of passion, romance and sensitivity.”\u00a0– Amira queen of creativity<\/strong><\/p>\n

She went from working in a department store to being the winner of America’s Next Top Model. Her nickname is Eva the Diva. Missy Elliot even featured her in one of her songs saying “Top model diva, but my name not Eva”. So she\u2019s definitely made a splash.<\/p>\n

The best way to describe Eva’s style is quite simply, glamorous. She\u2019s known to be experimental when it comes to her braids<\/a>.<\/strong> The looks she\u2019s sporting here says \u201cI\u2019m ready for a little festival fun\u201d. You can also accentuate your blonde braids by adding accessories just like Eva does. You can use yarn, shells, beads, cuffs, and rings. Choose what takes your style to the next level.

Even though these braids<\/a><\/strong> aren’t the brightest of colours, brown is a colour that will never go out of fashion. It was and will always be a classic. Rock a 90’s look inspired by Janet’s hipster trends back in the day. These brown braids could be the ultimate bomb. You could add a unique pop of colour by throwing in a bright old school scrunchy.
