Wow! That’s the perfect starter!

Is that a dutch braid where u pulled one section a little to add more volume?
Sure is! Hope you give it a try x
I love this. It has such a casual, yet put together feel. If only I had one once of skill in doing hair…

Thanks Linda! This will be in my new ebook out in October and I’ll be posting new tutorials online at the end of the month x
Love it! I am no where near your skill, but you always inspire me to practice. The hardest part for me seems to be getting the hair to stay in place. How many fasteners, clips, pins, etc did you use?
Thanks Gina! Try using a dry shampoo or texture spray to help your hair to hold in the braid. These products add some grip to your hair. I have only used 2 pins to hide the rest of my hair underneath, and I only use professional quality pins. They make a huge difference. Hope this helps!
It looks gorgeous! Is your hair the perfect lenght for this braid or do you have to hide the ends? I tried it but ended with a loner section hanging in the front :S
Thanks Lily! My hair is past shoulder length. I’ve tucked the end of the braid underneath and pinned it up.
Thank you. I see now, my hair is too long for this one.
I see that you mentioned professional type of hair pins. What makes those different than the other pins? I wonder what I have! LOL
I so love braids. I’m glad to see you showing us more ways to use them.
Hi Kimberly!
Thank you! I’m loving this braid challenge – it’s pushing me to find new ways to do my hair.
Pro pins are stronger than the regular pins you find at the supermarket, pharmacy or drugstore. I wrote about the pins I use here – http://www.hairromance.com/2012/03/which-hair-pins-do-i-use.html
Gorgeous!!! I LOVE this – wish I could do it on my hair. Love the braid challenge
Thanks Kate! Xx
I love this look!
Thanks Chelsea!
Are there directions anywhere on how to do it???
Hi Lyssa, all the instructions will be in my new ebook! It’s coming out at the end of this hairstyle challenge x
Is your hair super thick or is it mostly big sections? Thansks!
Hi Amber, it’s a bit of both. I have fairly thick hair but I also stretch out all my braids to make my hair look thicker.
I am loving all of these! Now that I donated 16″ my hair is finally short enough to do some of these styles! Might have to wake up early tomorrow to play
Thanks Jessie! So impressed that you donated so much hair! Have fun with these styles and let me know how you go x
I absolutely love this, Will you be doing tutorials eventually?
Thanks Keenah! Yes I’m putting together a brand new ebook with tutorials for all these styles. Plus I’m making new braid video tutorials too.
This is absolutely GORGEOUS! Thanks so much for posting this! I’m off to attempt this style right now!!! <3
PS: your hair is beautiful!
Thanks so much Micha x
