Lemonade braids, also known as, side braids, have been a popular braided hairstyle for a while now. You may recently know them from when Beyonce wore the iconic look in her 2016 album titled Lemonade. With a lemonade braid, your hair is typically parted to the side and cornrowed to one side of your head until you braids hang free.
