Poofy French braid and herringbone bun~ my look for today

Hi everyone,

     I hope you have a lovely day today.  The weather here in the islands has been beautiful this week, very bright and sunny but with a strong steady breeze.  This morning I fixed my hair in a French braid slightly to one side, and pulled on the sections when I was done to make my braid poofy.  I braided the length of my hair in a herringbone (or fishtail) braid and wrapped my braid into a low bun.  I held my bun in place with bobby pins, then added a large clip on one side.
     Thank you for following my posts her on my blog and on Facebook.  I love sharing hair pictures and posts with my friends from around the world.

 

 

 

High Herringbone Braid Bun~ my look for today

Hi friends, 

This morning I fixed my hair in a high herringbone braid bun, a hairstyle that I always enjoy.  After taking hair pictures in my yard, I got to take a few extra by the ocean at sunset.  What a wonderful and spontaneous way to end the day <3

French Braid with Fishtail Wrap-Around Braid~ my newest demo video!

Hi everybody,

I love this hairstyle!  I saw a version of this look on Pinterest, and tried it out on my own hair.  When I included it on my list of top-10-favorite-hairstyles-of-2014, a friend asked if I could do a demo video on this look.  So today I did!  My video is on Youtube, and here are some still pictures of this updo.
     Thank you so much for following my blog and also my Youtube channel.  I'm so glad I can share pictures and videos with you all.  If you see any looks that I have tried and posted and would like me to make a demo video, just let me know and I will do my best :-)

Dutch Fishtail Braid

Hello everyone,

Today I tried a new style of braid~ a Dutch version fishtail braid.  It is the same as a French version fishtail braid, but when you add hair you cross underneath instead of over the top.  After making my Dutch fishtail braid, I put my hair in a ponytail and made a slightly off-centered fishtail braided bun.  I really like this look, and am so glad I finally was able to make this kind of accent braid!
