Casual French Braid updo

Hi friends,

I hope you are off to a great month!  A few days ago I braided my hair in a loose sideways French braid.  For the bun, I clipped the braid to one side of my head then to the other side, so that the braid was laying horizontally at the nape of my neck.  Then I kept wrapping the end of my braid around one clip and then the other, almost in a figure-8 pattern.  I added several bobby pins to keep my hair up and in place.  I like the loose, casual look this hairstyle has, great for week-days when I want something simple.
