Side Lace Braids

Hi everybody,

This is one of my favorite hairstyles when I don't feel like trying something complicated.  It's easy and pretty!  I like to pull a little bit on the center section of smooth hair to give it a slight bump.  I put my hair into a low ponytail before making my bun, and this helps keep it up all day long because the clips have something to anchor to.  Thanks for stopping by to look at my pictures!

 

Knot Now

Hi friends,

Yesterday I started off with a one-strand pretzel knot on one side, brought it over into a two-strand rosette knot on the other side, made a third knot at the bottom, then a low bun.  An easy updo that doesn't require braiding :-)

A hibiscus in our yard had the most unusual two-in-one flower, and it just matched my dress!

My look for today~ Criss-Cross

Hi friends,

Thank you for all the birthday wishes and pageviews!  I'm always glad to hear that you enjoy my hair posts.  One of my birthday presents was Disney's "Frozen" on Blue-ray.  I had seen the movie when it first came out, and now I get to watch it again!  The hairstyles are so pretty, and I love the story-line, especially the end.  (And Olaf is so cute :-)

Now for some hair pictures - they were taken at night, so you can tell my look lasted all day long.

Zig-Zag Braided Hairstyle

Hi friends,

I hope you have a fun Saturday!  Several days ago I fixed my hair in this zig-zag braided hairstyle~ it's a lace braid except for the very bottom section which is a French braid.  Thank you for following my blog!

And finally, a beautiful sunset picture that I took yesterday evening from my front porch~ purple flowers and a pink sky :-)

Hairband Braid

Hi everybody, 

Today my sister added a small English braid as a headband, then made a low cinnamon bun.  She really knows how to use her hair sticks!  Such a pretty hairstyle~
