Braided hair tutorial

I’ve been doing different hair arrangement using braids lately. I like this one since its easy yet looks like I spent more time on it than I actually did :p I hope you like the tutorial!

1. You need two elastic bands and a couple of hair pins.
2. I like to start by curling my hair slightly with a curling iron, but this step  is totally up to you! I think this braided hair is great with straight hair, wavy or curled, as long as your hair has enough length to wrap a braided piece around the back of your head 🙂
3. First part your hair in the center. Then take a strand of hair right above your ear, leaving your bang, if you have it.
4. Then braid tightly.
5. Braid till the end, and tie it with the elastic band.
6. The side will look like this.
7-8. Do the same for the other side.
9. Take the braid, and wrap it around the back of your head and pin it right behind your ear. Make sure to hide the end under your non-braided hair.
10. Do the same for the other side.

And tada! It’s so easy and takes less than 3 minutes:)

    Romeo and Juliet"

    A love-struck Romeo sings the streets a serenade
    Laying everybody low with a love song that he made.
    Finds a streetlight, steps out of the shade
    Says something like, "You and me babe, how about it?"

    Juliet says, "Hey, it's Romeo, you nearly gave me a heart attack!"
    He's underneath the window, she's singing, "Hey la, my boyfriend's back.
    You shouldn't come around here singing up to people like that…
    Anyway, what you gonna do about it?"
    Juliet, the dice was loaded from the start
    And I bet when you exploded into my heart
    And I forget I forget the movie song.
    When you gonna realize it was just that the time was wrong, Juliet?

    …thanks!…wonderful…Lady!
