Though knotless braids can are available in the identical sizes and lengths as field braids, the principle distinction between the 2, in keeping with Gemma Moodie, afro hair stylist at Neville Hair and Beauty, is that “knotless braids seem like they’re rising out of the scalp, whereas with field braids you may see the knot the place the extension has been added”.
To attain the look she explains knotless braids are created “by including small quantities of hair to the braid as you go,” reasonably than beginning out with a cumbersome, chunk of extension hair.
Eunice Asiedu, who’s been braiding her personal hair for years and has just lately worn her hair in knotless braids, explains: “The primary distinction between the 2 types for me is with knotless braids, you will have the moment flexibility to model and you may manipulate the hair, however with field braids it takes just a few days to your scalp to loosen up earlier than you may model them.”
