Side bun, a simple yet beautiful hairstyle for any occasion

Hi friends,

     I washed my hair last night, and this morning I braided my hair in a simple side braid and wrapped it up into a bun.  I love the loose look that my hair has in this style, so nice especially with fresh, clean hair :-)
     Thank you for visiting my blog!  I hope you have a lovely day.

Ballet Beautiful Bun

Hello everyone!

     Some friends have asked about my workout routine, after seeing my muscles flex during hair videos ;-)  I exercise with Ballet Beautiful workout DVDs each morning.  Mary Helen Bowers has created a workout routine based on ballet exercises~ she was a professional ballerina for years and has a studio in New York City.  I'm so excited about my new Ballet Beautiful slippers and t-shirt, I'm sure they will make my workouts even better!

     My hairstyle is a French braided rope braid.  I struggled making this braid for years until I learned the trick to make it not unravel.  You take 2 sections of hair, wrap them around each other, then add hair to BOTH sections before wrapping them around each other again.  Add hair to both sections, then twist them together.  I used to add hair to 1 section, twist, then add hair to the other section, and my braid always unraveled.  Now I know the secret, I can make this braid I have always admired on others.

     Thank you for coming to see my new post!  I hope you have a lovely day.

French braid headband & bun~ my look for today

Hi everyone,

Today I parted off a section of hair and made a small headband French braid.  I piled my hair into a big bun and held it all in place with hairclips.  Using several clips is my secret to keeping my hair up all day long, no matter what style of bun or updo I have.  I prefer a few clips to a ton of bobby pins!
