2. Lace Braid Headband
Every girl loves braided headbands and you can easily take this whole hairstyle to a greater level by knitting two pieces. While one of the lace braids starts from the right, knit the second starting from the left side. As for the rest of your hair, let it fall in a cascade on your back.
3. Lace Braids for Black Women
Black women adore braids and certainly love the lace braids. To recreate the look above, start the first lace braid from one side and knit it to the other.
For the second one, select a thick stand above your ear and start braiding. The rest of your hair will be gorgeously decorated! Pin the whole hairdo with a low rubber band.
4. Dutch Lace Braid
Split the top hair into two sections, one in the back and one in front. Again, section the front part in two with a diagonal line. At the start of the line, braid a small lace knit that contours your face. At the end of the line, knit another braid that goes in the opposite direction.
5. Lace Braided Bun
Whenever you want your little princess to look spectacular, create a lace braid that goes around her head. Take the remaining hair and pin it into a gorgeous bun. When braiding, don’t forget to spare the bangs if you want a ravishing image for the young lady.

How to Do Lace Braid
The lace braids are very similar to French braids, with the only difference that you’re not adding hair from both sides. In this case, you’re only adding it from one. You’ll soon see how simple it is once we break it down for you. First, you have to decide where you want the braid to be.
Let’s say that it’s in the front and starts in the middle part, moving towards the ear. You will be adding hair only from the right side. Get a strand of hair and divide it into three parts. Start braiding by putting the right over the middle one, then the left as well.
During the next step, you will get the strand that is on the right but also gets more hair from the side. Put it again over the middle, then the leftover the right, without adding hair. Continue the same until you think you are done. You can do the lace braid wherever you want to. Such a flattering look for all ages!
So which of the eye-catching lace braid styles are you gonna pick? No matter which one you choose to wear it will make you stand out in the crowd for sure!
