La La Anthony and Tia Mowry Hardict debuted some braids on Instagram, and the question is do we love it? That’s an easy question answer: of course we do!
I particularly like La La’s style its a combination of cornrows and long braids; she looks stunning as always. On Instagram she said:
“I start shooting a new movie this week…the director wants cornrows.. lets do it! Detroit here I come!!! Thank you @myssmonique love these braids”
We think the style looks amazing and easy for her to pull off and from the looks of things, she is totally feeling the look.
Tia on the other hand, added braids for protective styling, she gave us a bit of a fashion show on Instagram which really wasn’t about the hair but you can tell she was enjoying her style like many of us do.
On Instagram she took a selfie and captured it saying:
“Then this happened… #protectivestyle #braids”
That picture is pretty daggone raw, her skin looks amazing which can probably be attributed to her healthy vegan lifestyle. You can catch more glimpses of the style as she shopped in the Farmer’s market and as she takes a selfie rocking Alexander Wang and a slip form Noe Undergarments.
Tia’s hair is straight box braids with no combination cornrows, both versions are a common choice for a lot of our readers and protective stylers out there.
If you had to choose between straight box braids and a combination cornrows and braids, which would you pick? If you did the combination style, it would probably not have as much versatility in the sense that the front would pretty much be the same and you could only manipulate the hair that is loose.
With loose box braids, you can create quite a few styles changing your look form day to day if you want to as you protect your hair. Comment below on what you think about the girls style.
Out of the two, which would you prefer? Cornrows with braids, or just loose box braids?
What do you mean Installed Braids?
Lol I know. .. like its something your drilling into your head
I’m glad I’m not the only one who looked at that title and went “whet? Installed??” Who says that? #nobody
When I get braids or a sew – in at the salon, my stylist call it installed or an installation too……so I guess it’s their terminology. So, I just respect their craft.
Yep, even sew ins are called installations.
No such thing as”Installed Braids” they both have their hair braided
Installed must mean added hair because that’s what their styles look like. They got braids with added hair. A protective style. The style will last longer, at least 2-3 months if they want them to. They can just get up and go. Less maintenance. A little moisturizing here or there. Dry shampoo to wash.
I don’t see the big deal. I’m a fan of both ladies, but why is this blog worthy? These braids are average braids. Nothing special.
Wooowwww lol maybe BlackHairInformation=Posts about hair & hairstyles lol.
But these are ordinary braids. That’s why I asked. There’s not anything special or new about them.
Don’t worry Tiana you are not the only one not excited bout this
Right I feel the same way lol
Some posts can be fun and simple and regular, while others might be deep, scientific or even pushing the envelope, the cool thing is you get to pick your poison..on this one over 1000 individuals liked it so its hard to determine what is most important to any one individual .. Thanks for supporting ladies 🙂
Just like most of the world fun n simple. Or maybe that’s why this simple post is getting toooo much attention. Support anyway you can.
Mowry looks cute with her braids.
My fave go to protective style
Wow. I feel people who know nothing about a subject should keep know it all comments to s minimal. A braid installation is just that …. Installing because of the fact weave is being used and not just natural hair. Just like a weave is installed.
A bunch of negativity. It’s a website about black hair so that’s what they are talking about @tiana
Yesss
Yesss
Lol thank you!!!!

Big deal
LOL both of these ladies have braids ……you guys try to make it sound fancy!
I’ve never seen them with braids
Stacie Hart Dawn Borom Tiana Franco Ain’t nothin’ new under the sun. Everything we’ve been doing to our hair has a name for it, a new name to describe it, and/or is reintroduced as something never done or seen before even though it’s been around longer than we all (the living) have been in existence. Pretty crazy, but I guess since so many people are just now learning things about their hair and things they can achieve, things like this are seen as a big deal and out of this world amazing to some.
Tia looks like a teenager again
Love them on both!!!
Who REALLY cares?!? This is so OVERDONE!
I luv both hairstyle…i will be getting mine soon
What in the hell is installed braids?
Installed though?….
I like it.
agreed I do not see anything interesting about this
“Installed” lol
That “installed” really threw me off for a second. Incorrect wording. We’re not working on cars here :$
Beautiful Queens
GREAT PROTECTIVE STYLE
I love them on both of you beautiful
