Braids & beads | This 80’s look is making a comeback

Braids & beads – the 80s look made famous by musicians Patrice Rushen and Rick James is making a comeback and we’re loving it!

“We’re really digging the old skool vibe of braids and beads. Musicians Patrice Rushen, Rick James and Stevie Wonder rocked them back in the 80s. Alicia Keys picked up the mantle in the late 90s and more recently Solange Knowles has been rocking platinum braids strung with colour blocked beads. Gold, plastic, wood – beads of all shapes and sizes are trending right now and they’re a must for slaying your braided festival or carnival hairstyle this season.” — Brenda Tukei @BrenzHairandBeauty
