If you're eager to upgrade your braided hairstyles this year, you're in for a treat! In this guide, I'll show you how to do a gorgeous pull-through braid and share some creative ways you can rock this look in 2025. Whether you've never tried it before or you want to keep up with the latest braided wigs, these simple steps and fun style suggestions will leave you feeling beautiful and confident every day.
What is a Pull-Through Braid?
A pull-through braid is a pretty and clever hairstyle that looks like a chunky braid but is actually made with many small ponytails stacked together. Unlike a regular braid, you don't need to weave sections. This means less tangled fingers and more time to enjoy the look! The pull-through braid is perfect for anyone—long hair, short hair, or even with curly or textured hair. It's also a favorite for those of us who love using braided wigs when we want a flawless, salon-like finish in minutes.
Why the Pull-Through Braid is a Must-Try for Modern Queens
I love the pull-through braid because it's bold, beautiful, and so easy to customize. It's a statement style that celebrates creativity and natural beauty. You can go from classic and sophisticated to playful and fun—all with the same basic technique. The pull-through braid is also less likely to make your hair feel tight or stressed. Plus, with options like Luvme Hair's braided wigs, you can change up your look as often as you want, no matter your hair length or texture. This style reminds me that every queen deserves a crown that reflects her unique personality!
Mastering the Basics: Step-by-Step Guide to a Stunning Pull-Through Braid
- Start with clean, detangled hair. You can either use your natural hair or try a Luvme Hair braided wig or extension for extra length.
- Divide your hair into two sections, creating a small ponytail at the crown of your head with the top section and secure it with an elastic band.
- Make a second ponytail just under the first one using the next layer of hair. Let the first ponytail fall forward for now.
- Split the top ponytail in half, bring the bottom ponytail up, and clip it out of the way.
- Gather the two split pieces and new hair below, form a new ponytail beneath your second one, securing with another elastic.
- Repeat the process all the way down, making sure each "pull-through" is snug for that full, magical look.
- When you reach the end, add a final band and gently tug at each section to make the braid look lush and voluminous.
