Now, they\u2019re coming back with a vengeance. Box braids reigned supreme the last few years, but microbraids are giving them a run for their money in 2023.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These braids take a while to do, so they\u2019re a labor of love, but they offer more movement than other types of braids. If you\u2019re not ready to commit to hours in the braiding chair, ask for mixed-size braids, using microbraids to frame your face.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.styleseat.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/throwback-microbraids-833x1140.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-16153\" width=\"417\" height=\"570\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.styleseat.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/throwback-microbraids-833x1140.webp 833w, https:\/\/www.styleseat.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/throwback-microbraids-626x856.webp 626w, https:\/\/www.styleseat.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/throwback-microbraids-768x1051.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.styleseat.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/throwback-microbraids-1122x1536.webp 1122w, https:\/\/www.styleseat.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/throwback-microbraids-600x821.webp 600w, https:\/\/www.styleseat.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/throwback-microbraids-219x300.webp 219w, https:\/\/www.styleseat.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/throwback-microbraids-748x1024.webp 748w, https:\/\/www.styleseat.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/throwback-microbraids.webp 1140w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 417px) 100vw, 417px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.styleseat.com\/m\/v\/mariamsellers2\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Adjias Braiding<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>2.
