Basket weave hairstyle

Hi dear friends,

     This morning I watched a video on YouTube and it was so easy to follow that I tried it on my own hair.  Of course I had to set up a second mirror, so I could look in one mirror and see the back of my head in the mirror on my wall.  I love how this basket weave hairstyle turned out!  Thank you so much for coming to see my post.  I hope you have a lovely day!

 

Basket weave braided hairstyle

Hello friends,

     I love this hairstyle, it is definitely one of my favorites.  I made two waterfall braids, one on top of the other, then a third lace braid along the bottom to incorporate all my loose hair.  I put the length of my hair into a four-strand braid and clipped my braid over one shoulder.  This braided hairstyle was the perfect compliment to my shabby chic camo look.  Thank you so much for visiting my blog!

 

My 1,000th Post! Micronesian "Kieki" (Basket-weave updo)

Hello friends,

     Last night I watched several YouTube videos explaining how to do a basket weave braid, and this morning I tried it out on my own hair.  I have always wanted to do this hairstyle, and although I would like to do it again with more weaves, I am quite happy with my first attempt at this braid.  My Micronesian friends were very surprised to see this hairstyle, they told me my hair looked just like a "kieki" which is a mat made out of woven palm leaves.  How thrilling to hear their description, that they could see the woven concept I was striving for <3

     Thank you for visiting my blog.  I love sharing hair pictures with my friends around the world.

 

 

Flipped braids for my friend and me

Hello everyone,

     This afternoon I taught my young Micronesian friends the popular "flipped" braid that took the internet and Instagram by storm a few months ago.  I love the surprise of this braid, it definitely has a WOW! factor.  I demonstrated the braid by braiding my own hair first, then I braided my friend's hair.  Hair-braiding is definitely a way to give girls individual attention and make them feel special <3
