Chisholm says the braided baldie is the style of this summer.
The weather will be hot, so getting your hair up off your neck is key, says Chisholm.
It just didnt have a name, says Chisholm.

Though #braidedbaldie is going strong online, not all braiders are familiaryet.
Chisholm always starts her appointments with a consultation to make each look personalized.
Every design you see me do is unique to that client, says Chisholm.

Nobody else is going to have that design.
Braiding in shapes (instead of straight down as you would for traditional cornrows) takes extra time.
Shorter lengths work best with this style.

Itcanbe done on thick, [dense] hair, but it makes it harder, says Chisholm.
Besides that, the key to making this style last is keeping it wrapped.
When you’re not doing anything, throw on a durag, says Chisholm.
With designs these gorgeous, its worth every effort to make them last.
