Short bob for the day

Hi friends,

It's fun to have a short hairstyle for a change, but of course only for one day.  I would never want to use scissors to achieve this look, just bobby pins and hair clips :-)












60's style chin-length bob for ankle-length hair

Hello friends,

     Last night I experimented putting my hair up in a faux-bob and liked the results so much I tried it again today.  I'm pleased to say that this hairstyle lasted all day long and only looked slightly tossed and windblown by night-time.  My friends who saw me with "short" hair were very surprised~ they love this look like I do and were relieved to know that no hair-cutting was involved at all, only bobby pins :-)
     I made a ponytail, then folded my hair up to chin-length.  I still had an arm's-length of hair left, so I piled that on top of my head and pinned it in place with bobby pins.  This beehive effect gives the overall look a 60's feel.



 

 
 

  

 

 
 




Faux Braid

Hi friends,

Yesterday I started twisting small sections of hair and clipped them in place behind my head with little hair clips.  When I stopped to look in the mirror, I was surprised to see how much this new hairstyle resembled a French braid, but actually there was no braiding involved!  So I guess this is my version of the very popular faux French braid which I see so often on-line.
     Thank you so much for coming by to see my hair pictures!
