Are Box Braids Going Mainstream?

 

Box braids have long been a staple in the black beauty community. They’re fairly easy to install and instantly stylish. Black celebrities have rocked the look, from Zoe Kravitz to Beyonce to, of course, Janet Jackson.

Pop singer Christina Aguilera rocked box braids for a time in the early 2000s, but at the time they never quite caught on. But is the style crossing over into mainstream territory?

A picture of a white woman rocking a set of blonde box braids has been making the rounds online, and its sparked lively debate. According to the photo’s original caption, the braids were done at a salon in Chicago.
