Space Buns<\/strong><\/h4>\n<figure id=\"attachment_10624\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-10624\" style=\"width: 320px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\" wp-image-10624 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/darlingafrica.com\/kenya\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Untitled-1_0001_Space-Buns-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"Space Buns\" width=\"320\" height=\"320\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-10624\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Courtesy: Darlingkenya instagram<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Putting on braids doesn&#8217;t mean you have to let it down always. After braiding on Darling Abuja, you can start the process of bun making. Part your braids into two from the centre of your head. Taking one section at a time, make a ponytail at the side of your crown. Spin the ponytail around the elastic band to make a bun. Secure this bun with some bobby pins and repeat the same procedure for the other half.<\/p>\n<p>Style Tip: You can leave some hair on the front to act as bangs. This would add some fun to the hairstyle.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>2. Simple Extra Long Braids<\/strong><\/h4>\n<figure id=\"attachment_10625\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-10625\" style=\"width: 320px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\" wp-image-10625 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/darlingafrica.com\/kenya\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Untitled-1_0002_Simple-Extra-Long-Braids-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"Simple Extra Long Braids\" width=\"320\" height=\"320\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-10625\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Courtesy: Darlingkenya instagram<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Girls who are obsessed with long hair should go for this hairstyle. Simply take Darling Abuja\u00a0and braid them onto your natural hair. These braids possess a soft and silky texture which can be easily used to achieve cornrows, twists, box braids and classic braids. Moreover, they are made of lightweight fibre, thus, you won&#8217;t feel heavy on your head.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>3.\u00a0Twisted Pattern Cornrows<\/strong><\/h4>\n<figure id=\"attachment_10623\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-10623\" style=\"width: 320px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\" wp-image-10623 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/darlingafrica.com\/kenya\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Untitled-1_0000_Twisted-Pattern-Cornrows-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"Space Buns\" width=\"320\" height=\"320\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-10623\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Courtesy: Darlingkenya instagram<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Sometimes it\u2019s about the intricate and complex pattern of cornrows on your head. This hairstyle will require a remarkably skilled stylist behind your chair. With Darling Expression braids you can create elaborate and clean styles. The quality and texture of these kanekalon hair extensions enable you to devise any fancy layout on your crown. However, with so much going on at the top, it is better to keep your remaining braids flowing. Yay or nay?<\/p>\n<p>All set to put the extensions on and try these hairstyles?
