Darling Kenya, a hair manufacturer in East Africa, launched new light-weight braids. These braids aptly called #ElegantBraid for the stylish women who love long, elaborate braided styles but love to protect their hair lines. The #elegantbraid is a solution for thinning hairlines caused by previous more heavy braids.
I choose an oromo inspired hairstyle for my look. I spotted this style on a kenyan Oromo, but I
have noted similar styles across Ethiopia and Eritrea.
Decided to do single braids at the back to give me more styling options.

This hair is much more silky and lightweight compared to its previous predecessors. Stack it with cowrie shells and you're channeling your ancestral queens.
All in all, these braids are very light, very silky and very smooth, with a very luxurious quality. I had a lot of single braids done and this hair feels superbly light on my scalp. I also washed it recently and it dries super quick and still maintains the fresh silk look no frays.
