1. Half-up, half-down double Dutch braids

Boxer braids are a summer staple, but if your hair is too short (or you've got layers), it's not always so easy. If you've been struggling, you'll find you can get the same effect (and not have to worry about it falling out!) by tweaking it into a half-up version like this one instead. Problem solved!Credit: @hannahh_b00o
