Jumbo knotless braids 34 styles

Jumbo knotless braids are one of the most stylish protective hairstyles known for their prominent appearance. A key distinguishing factor between regular jumbo braids and jumbo knotless braids is that the latter does not have a knot at the base, thus giving them a seamless look.

How to maintain jumbo braids

Scalp care is one of my major tips for ensuring that your jumbo box braids remain intact. I recommend moisturizing your scalp often. Poor scalp care, for example, constant itching due to dandruff, can affect the longevity of knotless braids. The second tip is wearing a satin bonnet before retiring to bed. Also, regularly maintain your braids by washing them using a sulfate-free shampoo and leaving them to air dry. To get the most out of protective styles, consider eating a rich diet for growth such as leafy green, eggs, and fish.
