Big box braids trade some of the delicacy of a smaller install for real speed, and honestly, the bold, chunky finish has its own kind of appeal.
These are the twelve I love most.
Classic Jumbo Box Braids
Large, evenly sectioned braids give you the full box braid look in a fraction of the usual install time.
Big Box Braids With a Middle Part
A middle part on larger braids keeps the bold size looking intentional rather than accidental.
Big Box Braids Styled Half-Up
Half-up styling on jumbo braids shows off the scale of the size while still keeping hair off your face.
Big Box Braids With Curly Ends
Curly ends on a larger braid add extra volume that reads dramatic in the best way.
Colored Big Box Braids
Bold color reads even bolder on a larger braid, making this size a great choice if you want a real statement.
Big Box Braids in an Updo
Jumbo braids gather quickly into a striking updo, since there are fewer individual braids to work with.
