Boho Dutch-and-rope-braids~ my look for today

Hi friends,

Since today is the first day of a new month, I'll go ahead and post another set of hair pictures :-)  I washed my hair last night so it was very clean today.  I've been using Moroccan argan oil for the first time, and I really love it!  It makes my hair super easy to comb out even when it is wet, and leaves my hair soft and shiny but not greasy or weighed down.
     Today I decided on a boho look and made a loose center Dutch braid.  Then I added lace rope braids on either side, and finished my look with a big low bun.  I held my bun in place with a clip hidden inside, and my favorite large wooden Grah-toe hair fork.  Thanks for coming by to see my new pictures!

Hot-Cross Bun for Orthodox Easter

Happy Easter to all my friends who celebrate this Sunday!

Today I made a sideways four-strand French braid, a little farther back than where a hairband braid would go.  I gathered hair from both sides at first, then only from the side closest to my face. This had a half-crown look when I finished my braid.  I put the rest of my hair into a middle ponytail, then wrapped it around a hairclip and into a bun.  I criss-crossed the length of my braid over my bun, so in honor of the Easter season, a hot-cross bun but with hair.

 

Laced-Up Braids with Grah-Toe Hair Fork

Hi everybody,

Today I tried something new, and made a waterfall braid on one side of my head where normally I might make a lace braid.  I made a lace braid on the opposite side, but added the left-over strands of hair from my waterfall braid.  This made a laced-up look, like tennis shoes or laces on a dress :-)  To finish off my hairstyle, I made a braided bun and held it in place with my special gift from my dear friends at Grah-Toe Studio.  Thanks for coming by to see my pictures!

Upside-Down French Braid~ my look for today

Hello friends,

     Today I fixed my hair in a style I don't do very often, an upside-down French braid.  I loved being able to use my new hair fork from my sweet friends at Grah-Toe Studio!  I made one upside-down French braid with most of my hair, then stood up straight and made a normal French braid with the hair right behind my bangs.  This helped keep my hair from looking scraped back from the front view.

     Thanks so much for stopping by to see my pictures!
