16 Best Medium Knotless Braids with Beads

Knotless braids do exactly as their name says! The braiding is done without a close knot to the scalp, as used for box braids or other braiding types. But that doesn’t mean you can’t add hair extensions as you are braiding those plaits. 

And if you’re dealing with coarse hair, medium knotless braids with beads are here to last because these specific plaits tend to stay attached and in good shape longer than other knits. 

So if you want a hairstyle that looks stunning even for two or three months, these beaded braids have your back. They are styled this way so that the tension applied to the scalp is reduced.

Also, they have a more natural aspect as the hair is gradually added and beautifully blended.
