{ONE} The first is my "braided headband". (And I actually use this tip & cheat by just twisting the hair instead of actually braiding it). This is my favorite way to wear my hair, because I can get the headband affect without having to actually wear a headband (which doesn't work well with my glasses).
{TWO}The second is this side braid. I was going for something more like this, but I haven't learned how to French braid yet, so a free floating braid it way! I'm going to play a little more with this one, because I see great potential in it!
{THREE}The third "braid" I do is actually only using braids to make my hair extra wavy. I picked that little trick up from this Threadsense video. But I haven't mastered the actual braiding part in the second half of the video. Just the braid-to-make-it-wavy part.

I don't really mind my limited experience. It's giving me some great opportunities to learn. I just wish it came easier to me!
What's your favorite braiding technique right now?
And what's your trick?

I love the braided headband. I just wish my hair was long enough for a braid these days.

Totally into braids and wish I could do more than the one style of braids I already know. BTW, thanks for coming by earlier and for leading me back here. Loving your blog and looking forward to many more posts! x
ReplyDeleteI like to pin my bangs back in a "braid". I say "braid" because you're supposed to french braid your bangs down to your head from one side to the other in the front, but I usually end up doing a twist instead. Just start with a deep side part, start twisting at the roots and add more hair as you go across your head, then pin in place! I love it! It's super easy and works great with down hair, up hair, or even a side braid.
ReplyDeleteOhhh yeah, I am all about braids! My hair is finally getting long enough to where I can do more creative things with braids as well! Thanks for stopping by my blog and leaving your sweet comment :)
ReplyDeleteI love the braided headband look - too bad I'm terrible at fixing my own hair.
ReplyDeleteI'm loving braids as well and I really need to work on my skills...still don't know how to french braid either...lol.
