Which braids can I try?

Braids take hours at a salon, so it helps to see one first. These ai braids hairstyles start with two classics: long box braids, and two Dutch braids that sit on top of the hair.

The prompt changes only the hair and keeps everything else, so the picture shows what the style would look like on you.
