Messy Herringbone Updo

Happy Sunday!

Today I started out trying out a hairstyle from my braid book, and made a hairband herringbone braid.  It got a little bit messy, but I liked the poof so much I went with it, piled my hair up on top of my head, and created this slightly old-fashioned look.  Thanks so much for looking and commenting!

Purple Hibiscus & French Braid Herringbone Updo

Hello friends,

My purple hibiscus bloomed today for the first time!  What a perfect accent flower for my new hairstyle that I discovered on Pinterest.  My little plant has many more buds on it, I'm happy to say.  It's such an unusual color and so pretty <3

Florida Herringbone Bun

Hello friends!

As you may have guessed, I'm traveling in America this month and have been a little sporadic with my hair posts.  Here are some pictures of my Florida-morning hairstyle from a few days ago~ I made two small French braids with the front sections of my hair, then piled the rest of my hair into a high-middle ponytail.  I braided my ponytail into a fishtail (or herringbone) braid, and wrapped it up into a big bun.  Then I took the ends of my two French braids and wrapped them around the herringbone bun.  When I was finished, I held everything in place with bobby pins and a jewel hair fork.  Once again, a hairstyle with two of my favorite looks~ herringbone braid and small French braids as accents :-)

Nefertiti, Queen of Egypt, Hairstyle

Hello friends,

This hairstyle seems to have an ancient Egyptian flare to it~ thus the elaborate name :-)

I made a small herringbone braid with the lower section of my hair, then piled the rest of my hair into a high bun.  I wrapped the herringbone braid around the bun and pinned it in place with bobby pins.  The flower was added as an accent.  Thank you so much for following my blog and viewing my different posts!
