The power of the braid

I love having short hair, and highly doubt I'll ever really grow it out, but if I did have long hair I think I would rock the braid as often as possible. It's so simple, yet so pretty and classic. Plus, the braid has become all the rage recently, which means people are getting creative with it. It's no longer just a simple tail down the middle of your back; now it's worn as a headband, intricately woven with flowers, and used to liven up a basic bun. Truly lovely.

  2. Those are beautiful! I'd love to get to the point where I can braid my hair again. I rode horses as a kid and always braided my hair just to wad in up in the helmet. I'd love to give the braid it's rightful place again.

    Thanks for the inspiration!

  4. I want to wear a braid that goes on the front like across the forehead! I tried doing it to myself, but cant figure it out! I wear my hair in a boring braid in the back a lot, but I cant get my fingers to do much else! I need to learn

  5. i am so jealous of anyone that can style their hair in fun ways like this. i am completely lacking in this department. i LOVE the braid look, but sadly have never been able to pull it off (bc i have no idea how!!)
