What type of braids are free-hanging?

Cornrows
Rope braids
Single braids
Visible braids

The correct answer is: Single braids

Single braids are free-hanging because they are not attached to the scalp, unlike cornrows or rope braids. Cornrows are braided very close to the scalp, making them lay flat against the head. Rope braids are braided in a way that creates a spiral effect, which makes it difficult for them to hang freely. Visible braids can be either single or multiple braids, but the term "visible" does not specify if they are free-hanging or attached to the head.
