This is one of my most searched keywords…mini braids for short hair. I definitely think this is a style that anyone can wear…long haired and short. I wore mini braids just a few weeks after my big chop. At that time I had less than 3 inches of hair. I did use a lot more accessories to jazz it up and the let the ends unravel almost completely before taking them out. Doing so gave me the look of a wash and go without the hassle or fear of tangling (not that I’m afraid of wng’s).

If you have a TWA or are in the in between stages and are wondering what short mini braids look like, here are some pics of where I started. They are all from 2009 and 2010 mostly, when my hair was shorter than shoulder length. Once I reached shoulder length in braids, I wore them up more often.
