Faux Basket Weave Updo

Hi friends,

     My look for today was simple to create but looks complicated.  I made three 4-strand push-up braids, then put the rest of my loose hair into a low bun.  I arranged my three push-up braids across the top part of my hair, and noticed that they had a basket weave look (that was much easier than an actual basket weave effect!)  I love push-up braids, they are the perfect accent braid to any hairstyle.

 

 

 

 

Afternoon Flair

Hello everybody,

     I hope you are having a peaceful and wonderful week so far.  Today I took advantage of the Florida summer weather and wore my new white dress again~ with a fancy braided updo as my hairstyle.  I made a 4-strand push-up braid, a small sideways French braid, and then a braided side bun.  I decorated the outside of my bun with the end of my push-up braid, and held my hair in place with several hair clips.  I love push-up braids!  They are so easy to make, and still look extremely intricate.  They add flair to any hairstyle.

  

 

 

Crisscross Princess Braids

Hi friends,

     I hope you had a wonderful start to the new week. Thank you for all the kind comments here on my blog and on Facebook. I'm sorry for late responses, and will try to answer soon. My birthday is this weekend and I am traveling to celebrate :-)
     Yesterday I made two small accent braids at the top of my head just behind my bangs. Then I braided two lace braids in a princess style. I took my two accent braids and laced them back and forth between my princess braids. I have seen this look made with ribbons, always so beautiful. Thank you for coming to see my version.

Micronesian Girls~ Two beautiful hairstyles

Hello from the islands,

My two friends had such beautiful hairstyles yesterday, I wanted to share them with my other friends around the world.  The first is an amazing hippie braided headband combined with an incredibly thick ponytail.  The next one is a circle Dutch braid, on hair that is around knee length which makes this hairstyle even more impressive.  Thank you for coming to see our pictures!
