Grecian Up-do

Hello everybody!

I hope you are having a beautiful Sunday.  This morning I tried a rather elaborate hairstyle that I learned from one of Lilith Moon's videos.  I really like how it turned out, and will definitely try this hairstyle again!  Here are some pictures (actually a lot of pictures since I couldn't decide which ones to leave out :-)

Thank you so much for viewing my post!  Come again soon!

Swirly Lace Braid~ my look for today

Hello and welcome back!

Thanks for viewing my posts~ here are some pictures of my look for today. I wanted to do something easy yet pretty, so I made a swirly side-to-side lace braid with a braided bun. I started the lace braid gathering hair closest to one side of my face, then switched and gathered hair from the other side, etc...

Thank you for looking! I hope you have a good week-end <3

Double French braids and butterfly clips~ my look for today

Hey everybody,

Today I did a zig-zag center part, then made two French braids. Then I made two braided buns and held them in place with these butterfly clips. It's night-time now and they still haven't moved!

Thanks for stopping by to look! I hope you have a beautiful day :-)

Black Belt Studio Pictures~ Long four-piece braid

Hey everybody!

Today I fixed my hair with a French braided mohawk and a low bun. Since I've already uploaded pictures that look very similar to my look today, I thought I'd post these pictures from a few years ago. This was right after I got my black belt~ I wore my hair down in a long four-piece braid:

My hair was shorter (lol) back then~ it came to about mid-calf length, if I remember right.

(A few minutes after posting this, I Googled "Taekwondo girl long hair" to see if I could find any emoticons or animations for my post, and was so surprised to see picture after picture from my hairstyle blog show up on the first page. I guess word is starting to get out! Thank you for all the views, everybody!)

Micronesian Girl~ Side Dutch Braid

One of my little Sunday School girls had the cutest Dutch braid today~ it looks kind of like a big question mark :-)

Isn't her hair a pretty blue-black color?

Four-strand French braid~ my look for today

I love the look of a French braid made with four-strands as opposed to the normal three-strand version. It's neat how one side of the braid looks like a French braid and the other side looks like a Dutch braid. Here are some more pictures of my look for today:

My braid was too long to wear all the way down, so I folded it up till it was a comfortable length. Then I wrapped the end of my braid around several times and clipped it in place. 

Four-strand braids are a nice way to make your hair look super thick!

Thanks for looking at my post :-)

Braided Figure 8 buns~ another Taekwondo hairstyle

Hello everybody,

Yesterday was the Taekwondo competition for our students~ everybody had a fun time!

That morning I had braided my hair in random English braids, from the top of my head near my bangs to about the level behind my ears. I divided the braids and my remaining unbraided hair into two low pig-tails. Then I braided the extra hair in the first ponytail into one English braid, and the three braids into another English braid. I did the same for the second ponytail (although this ponytail had four braids, so I added one of the smaller braids to my single English braid).

In each ponytail, I wrapped one of the braids up into a bun. Then I took the extra braid from one side and wrapped it around the two buns in a figure-8 fashion. I took the extra braid from the other side and did the same thing. 

A little funky, but a fun recreation hairstyle :-)

(I'm wearing the Taekwondo Peace Corps shirt that my friend from Korea gave me. Wimsey got in on the hair pictures, as you can see.)

Thanks for viewing our post!
