Hello everyone,

Today I braided my hair in two blossom-Dutch braids and added three small braid rosettes as accents.  I have seen variations of this look on the internet, and wanted to try it out myself.  My hair is still extra-soft from the hair mask treatment I used a few nights ago~ so easy to mix together and always has such fabulous results <3

Hello friends,

     We managed to take hair pictures in the evening light before the sun completely set~ a blossom-Dutch braid with a braided bun was my look for today.  I love the way a Dutch braid looks so full and lacey when you slightly tug on the sides to give it the blossom effect.  You can see how I do this in my last YouTube video.
     And speaking of YouTube, I saw the best cartoon ever tonight and found the link so I could share it with you.  You may have seen it already, the Pixar short film "Lava."  It is so sweet, and the scenery looks just like our islands <3

Hello friends,

A few days ago I braided my hair in a Dutch braid and left the end long, which is unusual for me.  I like Dutch braids, they are simple and fun.
     Thank you for following my blog!  I hope you are having a wonderful week.  Christmas is just a few days away <3

Hello friends,

I hope you are having a wonderful holiday season.  I was so happy to find that one of my flower headbands just matched the flowers on my dress.  What a fun addition to this updo, a combination of two Dutch lace braids and a braided side bun.  Thank you for checking out my new post!  Have a beautiful new week <3

Hello all,

     Thank you so much for coming to see my new hair pictures!  Today I experimented with a new hairstyle, and love how it turned out.  First I made the three small English braids on one side as accents.  Then with the rest of my hair I made a Dutch braid, which I turned into a blossom braid by tugging on the sides to make the sections of my braid "blossom" into a bigger, fuller braid.  I've found the secret to making a blossom braid is to put your hair into a low ponytail when you finish making your Dutch braid.  Maybe this can be an idea for a future hairstyle video :-)
     I hope you have a wonderful week!  This Thanksgiving week, I am thankful for you.
