Everywhere we go, braids seem to be the latest trend as ladies have been turning heads with their long waist length braids, stylish knot tying and short length braids in all kind of colours. It's so nice and tempting, I even got my hair made like that. Lol.

  There are all kinds of braids but today I'm specifically talking about the stylish kinky braids also known as Marley twist or marley braids.

  Marley braids are another popular protective style. The hair used is slightly coarser in
texture than traditional synthetic
tresses, but the two-strand twist method is again applied here. The typical length for Marley Twists are braided to about the shoulder.

    The Marley braids take between 5 and 10 hours to make and can last between 4 weeks and 3 months. This hairstyle is very popular amongst Africans and African-American women.

look. They can be styled in various different ways to give an
elegant, casual or even that official look.
