Should I wear my hair natural or get it braided?

You should do what you think is best! ;) If you want your hair to be healthy... I suggest that you should wash it everyday. Especially after swimming in salt or chlorine water. You could put your make your hair nice after you take care of your hair. You could switch from time to time though during your vacation though. I suggest that you don't leave your hair braided when you go swimming though, because your hair will be tangled and stuck. It's hard to get out. If you leave it naturally then you could just wash it out with shampoo and conditioner then you're good to go! But it's your choice! Have fun at your vacation! xD

how is your hair like naturally? mine is naturally straight so if yours is the same way you could do a couple of things. Do you have bobby pins? you can do a braid but pull some of your hair forward and pin it to the side so that it looks like it has a side part. pinning it up will keep it in place. also you could do a side braid or side ponytail. that covers some of your forehead and still give your face a nice defined shape. if you are also looking for shape/style, maybe do a half up- half down pony tail, you can take the top half of your hair and put it in a pony tail and then leave the bottom half down giving it a nice/different look. using a poof above your head while having a ponytail/braid, distracts from the forehead. while your swimming though, definitely put it in a pony tail it just makes it that much easier to swim. Enjoy your vacation!!

it depends on how ur natural hair is, if it's straight, try a ponytail (low, high, side), it it's curly just leave it the way it is & add a cute hair accessory or try one of the the hairstyles that i'm going to post the link for u, & about the braiding there are types of braiding (french braid, fishtail braid, dutch braid....) if a one type of braid doesn't suit u don't worry there a lot to try.

you are able to placed on braids with organic or comfortable hair, however the braids tend to maintain their neat visual attraction longer whilst the hair is organic. additionally, hair it fairly is further in has a tendency to anchor better whilst being blended with organic hair.
