Lilith Moon's Criss-Cross Waterfall Braid Hairstyle

Hello friends,

Last night I watched Lilith Moon's new video on this criss-cross waterfall braid, one of her most popular videos ever!  I love her hairstyles and ideas, and this one is definitely a favorite.  I tried it out today, with a low bun instead of a ponytail.  Thank you for stopping by to look!  Be sure to click on the link below and watch her video for yourself.

Rural Music Awards Hairstyle

Hello everybody,

I wore my hair like this yesterday, and it reminded us so much of the Carol Burnette "rural music awards" skit on Youtube that I'll post the video below.  My country singer look :-)

Fancy Braided Bun

Hey everybody,

I tried to do a version of a pretty circle braid updo that I saw on the internet~ it turned out a little lop-sided, but it's hard to braid 360* around one's own head lol

Here are links to the two Lilith Moon videos you can combine to create this hairstyle~ Lilith posted this idea on her Facebook page with a few pictures of her own.  First video on circle lace braid updo~ and the next  video on a circle French braid.

(When I fixed my hair today, I did the center circle French braid first, then the outer lace braid.  I poked the ends of my braids up under the bun, so that's actually all my hair and not a sock.)

For lack of a better name (or the imagination to think one up!), I just called this my fancy braided bun.  If you have a better name for this hairstyle feel free to comment below.  As always, thanks for looking!

Wimsey :-)

Wavy Updo

Hello all, 

Yesterday I made two chain braids (or snake braids) to use as accents~ you can see pictures here.  I love the crimps that chain braids make~ much more defined than regular braid waves.

I kept these crimpy sections separated from the rest of my hair.  Then I sectioned off parts of my hair and made twists, like Lilith Moon does in this video:

When I finished making the twisted sections, I put my hair into a low ponytail.  I braided that hair into a rope braid, then wrapped that braid into a rose bun and clipped it in place with my butterfly clips.  Finally, I took the crimpy sections of hair and arranged them between the twisted section.  I wrapped the ends around the base of my rose bun and bobby pinned them in place.  It sounds complicated when I try to describe it, but actually it was relatively easy.

And now for pictures :-)

 

 

A lot of pictures, I know~ thanks for taking the time to look!
