Boho braids are back, and extensions for them are trending online. Our trending topics article will give you all the information you need to start selling them.

Bohemian Braid Extensions

Bohemian Braid Extensions (also called goddess braids extensions) became popular after Zoë Kravitz brought them back as a trending style. After her appearances in Big Little Lies and High Fidelity inspired many female viewers to copy her hairstyle. In both cases, it was, you’ve guessed it, boho braids.

As a retailer, you can enhance your inventory by offering hair extensions. The best variant for braids is the one that combines human hair with waxy, textured faux hair perfect for braiding.

Seller Focus

Wig sellers can benefit from the trend and improve their portfolio easily, as the connection with the target audience is already established. Retailers in the haircare industry can also offer fake extensions to customers interested in a long braid look without damaging their natural hair.

If you’re in the fashion business, you need to follow the latest trends and looks. Offering goods that allow your clients to wear bohemian braids is the way to go.

This trend of buying boho braid-inspired extensions is not based in the U.S. only. You can easily reach a global customer base if you have the means to ship your products efficiently.
