1. Crochet Micro Braids
Looking for a way to make your hair look longer? A crochet micro-braided high ponytail will definitely help you achieve that.
2. Micro Box Braids
Often used as a protective style, box braids are just that: boxy, squared off divisions of hair known for their intricate designs that are easily changed up.
3. Curly Micro Braids
Your microbraids don’t have to be straight. Let your naturally curly hair flow free by braiding only 3/4 of the way down the hair.

Do you have curly hair and want to change it up? Keep it simple with straight micro-braided hair, especially helpful for women with short hair wanting the illusion of long locks.

For women with curly or wavy hair, micro braids are a great way to control frizz and body while also adding a bit of style.

If you love having long hair, consider long micro braids. Not only will they make you feel girly, but they’re easily pulled back into a pony when you’re off to a workout.
7. Short Micro Braids
These edgy takes on short micro braids prove a little color is always fun to play with! A pop of pink or platinum blonde makes a short style stand out.

These medium-sized micro braids are a little bigger meaning they’ll take less time to complete. It might also be fun to just try braiding the top half of your hair locks and letting the rest go natural!

Micro twist braids are low maintenance so if you’re more casual and relaxed, put these at the top of your list! Faded highlights add a subtle touch of beauty.
10. Micro Braid Half Updo
Women everywhere can agree that braids are a favorite style you can’t ever go wrong with. Whether it’s a half updo or a design you come up with all on your own, you’re sure to rock it.

Invisible micro braids – braids that are so tiny you can’t tell they’re braided – are a flattering hairstyle for any hair length and color.
13. Micro Braids with Shaved Sides
A micro braided style with shaved sides is just the style for you if you’re looking for one with the ultimate edge. Electric blue or other highlights will also help take the look up a notch.

Your natural hair can look amazing with micro braids, just make sure you take care of it. Coconut oil restores moisture and will help whatever style you rock hold.
17. Ombre Micro Braids
Look pretty in pink or beautiful in blue with a fun touch of ombre in your micro braids.
18. Micro Braids for Kids
For kids, a simple ponytail or bun gets boring. Micro braids are a fun, low-maintenance way for them to express themselves.

Instead of a subtle ombre, try an all-over color for a more dramatic effect.

With a gorgeous micro braid weave, you can choose to do a heavy side part to make a statement or a fun zig-zag part taking care to brush baby hairs down with a gel.
21. Micro Braids in a Ponytail
When working out, pull your hair up and out of the way in a thick ponytail. Wearing a statement dress? A side pony that drapes over your shoulder will be the perfect accessory.
22. Micro Braids in Bun
A ballerina bun is stunning when piled high with micro braids. Leave a few shorter pieces loose to frame the face.
23. Cornrow Micro Braids
Cornrows and micro braids complement each other in that the cornrows draw attention to the face while micro braids keep the hair’s volume in check.
When it comes to micro braid hairstyles, the more advanced of a style you choose, the more time you’ll need to have, so save those for the weekends. Most micro braid styles are low-maintenance, which is why you’ll fall in love with them just as much as we did!
