Square Part

Hello all,

Today I tried something new that I saw in my braid book by Raychel Potter, a square part as opposed to a zig-zag part.  I made two lace braids, gathering hair from the inside closest to the center part all the way across to the outermost side by my face.  That is why the braids look more like Dutch braids.  Thank you for visiting my blog!

Triple French Braids

Hello friends,

My center mohawk braid looked just as good the second day, so I added a French braid on either side to create my hairstyle for today.

Undercover Mohawk Braid

Hi friends,

I tried a look that I had seen on Pinterest.  First I made a narrow mohawk French braid in the center, then I took the hair on each side to make a loose French braid on top of my mohawk braid.  It looks different from the original, but I like the overall effect.  Thanks for following my blog!

Fishtail Bun with Flower Accent

Hello everyone,

I hope you had a beautiful Sunday like I did!  Today I made a circle part and braided a wrap-around lace braid.  Then I made a fishtail bun with the hair in the center of the circle.  I had left out a small section of hair which I braided and made into a flower accent.  Everything is held in place with a lot of bobby pins!

Box Braid Accents

Hi friends,

I'm slowly trying to ease my way into a more complicated accent-braid hairstyle.  Today I made 2 small 4-strand box braids and used them as accents to my braided bun.  Box braids are actually easy once you get use to making them.  I have yet to try a 6-strand box braid!
