Braids are an investment: several hours of installation, a real bill, and a look you keep for weeks. Seeing them on your own head first is worth more than any Pinterest board.

This AI braids tool renders neat, even box braids that follow your scalp and hairline. Your face, skin tone and lighting come through unchanged, so the result reads as you with braids and not a wig laid over the photo.

The gallery below covers the styles people compare against box braids most often, from cornrows to a single French braid.

Choosing a braid style

  • Box braids

    Square-parted individual braids, usually with added hair. They frame any face shape and the length is up to you. This is the style pinned on this page.

  • Cornrows

    Flat braids that follow the scalp. They show the head shape fully, so preview them if you have never worn a scalp-tight style before.

  • French and Dutch braids

    One or two braids worked into your natural hair. No added hair, no installation time, and they suit longer faces by adding width at the crown.

  • Hairline and edges

    Braids put tension on the front hairline. If your edges are fine or thinning, ask for knotless braids and larger parts, and preview a version that starts further back.

What braids actually cost

  • Install: 4 to 8 hours, $150 to $400+

    Box braids are priced by size and length. Smaller braids take longer and cost more. Knotless versions add time.

  • Wear time: 6 to 8 weeks

    Longer than that and new growth starts to strain the roots. Plan the takedown when you plan the install.

  • Night care

    A satin scarf or bonnet keeps frizz down and extends how long the braids look fresh. Scalp oil once or twice a week.
