Butterfly Braid in the evening

Hi friends,

     I washed my hair this morning, and took hair pictures later this evening.  I braided my hair in a butterfly fashion with lace braids, and added a long 3-strand braid that was looped up once to make my hair appear waist-length.  I love hairstyles that show a little bit of length :-)

Butterfly Braid

Hi friends,

I saw pictures of this hairstyle on the internet, and tried my own version today.  I love how easy it is to make this braided butterfly!  And instead of leaving my hair loose, I made a very low ponytail and then a pull-through braid.  It's loose enough that I can casually drape my braid over one shoulder.
     Thank you for following my blog!  I hope that you are having a lovely day.

 

 

Flock-of-Butterflies Braid

Hi everyone,

Who could not love butterflies? :-)  Today I made a hairstyle with two random French braids and two random lace braids, and braided the length of my hair in one long English braid.  Then I wrapped my English braid back up and around, and held it in place with little hair clips.  The overall look reminded me of butterflies flying together.

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!
