Sunshine Braids

Hello everybody,

Today I added my accent braids into a new hairstyle.  I started on one side with a lace braid, adding an accent braid, then loose hair, then an accent braid, until I ran out of hair to add.  Then I wrapped my braid up into a bun and held it in place with hairclips.  Aren't the flowers in the background pretty?

Braided Swoop Bun

Hi friends,

I got the idea for this hairstyle from a pin on Pinterest.  First I sectioned off a small section of hair, like a some-up-some-down hairdo.  I braided that and wrapped it into a small bun at the top of my head.  Then I divided the lower section of hair into two halves.  I braided one section in an upward direction and wrapped it around my bun.  Then I braided the other section in an upward direction and wrapped it around the bun the opposite way.  After adding several bobby pins and tiny hairclips, my hair was firmly in place.  In fact, it still looks as good tonight as it did this morning!  I'm wondering if I can manage to sleep without messing my hair up and get another day's wear out of this look?  :-)
     Another interesting point, I washed my hair this morning so my hair was actually still wet when I put it up.  I'm thinking....braid waves!

Coiled Rope Braid

Hello friends,

It's great to be back home in the islands.  I have a few hairstyles in store from my trip, and will post them in a few days.  But for now, here are some pictures of my look for today.  I started out with a headband rope braid, and kept coiling it around into this braided updo.  My little hairclips hold everything in place perfectly!
     As always, thank you so much for following my blog!  I appreciate all your kind comments and pageviews.
