Side Ballerina Bun~ my look for today

Hi again everybody,

Today my hair'do was inspired by Mary Helen Bowers from Ballet Beautiful.  I exercise with her dvd's every day, and today I noticed her deep side part and side bun.  Later when I fixed my hair, I made my own version of Mary Helen's hairstyle.
     Thank you for following my blog and coming by to see my new pictures!

4-strand French braid in the sunshine~ my first hairstyle video outside!

Hi everybody,

After several requests from different friends, last week I made my first hairstyle video outside!  You can see the full-length of my hair as I braid it in a 4-strand French braid.  My favorite part about this braid is that it looks like a French braid on one side and a Dutch braid on the other.  Here are some pictures of my final look, after I wrapped the end of my braid up and clipped it in place.  I show the full-length of my braid in my video, so be sure to visit my Youtube channel, too!
     Thank you so much for following me here and also on Youtube.  I appreciate each view, comment, like, and share!  Maybe soon I will reach 500 subscribers, thanks to you all :-)  And now for some hair pictures~ the link to my video is at the bottom of this post.

A Day at the Beach~ 4-strand mohawk braid

Hi everybody,

I went to the beach this morning, and while I was there I got some hair pictures taken :-)  This is a four-strand mohawk braid with a small English braid on either side, and a bun.  Thank you for following my hair posts!  I'm excited to  share these pictures and videos with you all.

Butterfly Braid

Hi friends,

Today I tried something a little different.  I gathered a section of hair from the front near my bangs, and made a four-strand braid.  Not a French braid version, just a regular four-strand braid.  Then on either side of that center braid I made a tiny French braid.  I put my hair into a ponytail, and tugged on the sides of my four-strand braid.  The results looked to me like an almost different kind of braid, rather like several butterflies in a row.  So that's why I thought I would call this...my butterfly braid!  I finished my look off with a big, wavy bun.  There are a few hairclips hidden underneath like I've shown in a few of my videos.  If you've noticed I try to avoid using bobby pins whenever possible!
