Did Yara Shahidi Just Declare Summer’s Biggest Hair Trend?

From afar, it looks like Yara Shahidi [1] had gold dusted along her centre part; but upon further inspection, you'll find she was wearing a braided middle part [2] adorned with safety pins.

Shahidi's hairstylist Nikki Nelms [3] is the mastermind behind the gilded braid. Nelms, aka the Hair MacGyver, is known for her creative use of craft store materials in her celebrity clients' hair (like these googly eyes [4] on Janelle Monáe [5]). She placed the pins on Shahidi's hairline all the way down to the end of her braid.

This is just one example of an accessorised braid — one of this season's biggest hair trends [6]. Expect to see more and more woven hair looks that are decorated with pins, chains, and jewels [7] pop up this Summer. See examples of the coolest braid trend ahead.
