Hi friends,

     Today I tried to fix my hair in a modern look to match the pattern of my dress.  My side braid is actually a French loop braid, but it looks more like a 5 or 6 strand Dutch braid because I did not pull on the loops to make them stand out from my braid.  I put the rest of my hair into a side ponytail which I then braided in a long rope braid.  I wrapped my rope braid up into a bun.  Then I took the length of my French braid and wrapped it around the outside of my bun.  My hair is held in place with bobby pins and a single hair-clip on one side.

Hello friends, Happy 2016!

In spite of a busy morning taking down Christmas decorations, I managed to fix my hair in the afternoon and head outside to take hair pictures between rain showers :-)  After all, I couldn't let the first day of the new year go by without fixing my hair in a fun style.  I hope your year is off to a wonderful start so far <3

Hello friends,

I hope you have had a beautiful week-end.  Today I fixed my hair in three accent fishtail braids and a side bun.  I wanted to take length pictures, but I think I will have to go a wash or two without using coconut oil...my hair is not cooperating with me right now!  But although coconut oil works can work against me when it comes to length pictures and loose hair, it is amazing for braids and updo's <3

Hello everyone,

This morning I had a fancy headband updo on my mind, so I ended up fixing my hair in three small French headband braids combined with a side bun.  I love small French braids!  And side buns!  So the two combined is definitely a favorite hair'do :-)
     The morning sun was so bright, I ended up taking pictures in the shade and also in the sunshine.  It's interesting to see the difference between the two.  I hope wherever in the world you are, you have a lovely day <3

Hello everyone,

We are having some stormy weather in the islands, but thankfully this morning was beautiful and just right for taking hair pictures :-)  I fixed my hair in a sideways 4-strand braid, and kept the side bun loosely held in place with tiny hairclips.  A fun way to fix long hair when you want it up but still slightly visible from the front.
