FRENCH BRAID

So it might sound strange if you have seen how I do Paislee's hair to admit that when is comes to a simple french braid I can't do it. I just can't hold the hair tight enough to keep the braid tight and it ends up looking horrible. Well it drives me crazy that I can't french braid, because everyone and their dogs can. I have had several people teach me their unique tricks to holding the hair and I have watched TONS of frech braiding video tutorials, but still no luck. The french braid is fun but really nothing that fancy to look at, it just drives me NUTS that I can't do it. So one of my new year's resolutions was to master the french braid in Paislee's hair. This is the second attempt and it's not perfect but by next year I will be a french braiding fool. I will be able to french braid in everyway, shape and form & also coming from every direction!

I love doing Elles hair, and I must admit that a french braid is my lazy days hair do. One thing I love to do with a french braid is weave a ribbon between the two braids {after it is braided} in a criss cross fashion and make it look like a corset!
Your braids look great!

Just me and my girls said...
