white girl wants black braids, where to start?

I have always admired black hair, especially braids and beads. But I am white and have smooth, straight, thick brown hair. I want to incorporate “add-on” braids (maybe corn-rowed) into an edgey short haircut, but can’t find a photo gallery online to search for a style that I like. Once I have that, I think I can go to any stylist specializing in braids, right? Should I hold off cutting my hair too short until I find just the right look? Does anyone specialize in caucasion/black fusion hairstyles?

I recommend you go to your local beauty supply shop and see what they recommend. The one I frequent for wigs and hair pieces has a bulletin board of business cards of people who specialize in sewing in braids and/or have the clip in hair pieces available. Just go and ask a lot of questions! Best wishes!
