They are called boxer braids (or Box Braids) and are similar to a braid at the Dutchman, who, however, remains softer and lighter than this very pulled hairstyle. This type of intertwining is part of a tradition that has its roots in the African and African community and descendant; In the years 2010, celebrities such as Kim and Khloe Kardashian or Kylie Jenner showed them off making them their “stylistic figure”, which is why they have often been accused of cultural appropriation (different is the celebration).

How to make the braids of Alessia Lanza, the tutorial for the spring-summer 2025 hairstyle
Firm hand, patience and a pinch of art. To make The braids of Alessia Lanza (o boxer braids), it starts by dividing the hair into two perfectly symmetrical sections, tracing a clear line in the center of the head, from the center of the forehead to the neck with a tail comb. Each side thus becomes the field on which to weave with care. It starts from the forehead, taking a small lock that is divided into three equal sections. The technique is that of the Dutch braid, or each external strand passes under the central one, gradually incorporating new strands from the sides, so that the braid develops adhering to the scalp.
The secret lies in maintaining constant tension and in proceeding with fluid and safe movements, accompanying the growth of the braid along the entire length of the hair. Once you arrive at the tips, the plot is fixed (which is more in relief and three -dimensional than the flat and “negative” of the French braid) with a thin, almost invisible elastic. The result must be decided, sculpted, as if every intertwining was the stretch of a freehand drawing.
In the content Creator version there is also a particular design that develops directly thanks to the locks expertly divided into contrast with the lines on the scalp; The protagonist is a star, as in the nails and nail art most loved recently by the celebrations.
