Do Something With My Hair: 2016 Edition

Back in 2014, I wrote a post called "Do Something With My Hair." No reason I put that there. Just it's there.

My hair is getting longer since my last donation which you can read about in A Cut Above (The Ponytail) so I figured I should do something with it.

'Cause my relatives are always like, "Why don't you DO something with it?"

'Cause this is how I look - so I have a lot of area for adornment and improvement. Anything to distract from this personality.

I have always wanted to do a crown braid or side braid, but, my hair is very fine and it takes a lot of hair to make it work.You know, doing stuff like this in about 5 seconds while hung over - 6 Easy Braided Hair Looks.


I did recently figure out I don't have to do a three-strand braid, I can just do a two-strand twist. I don't know what the technical term is. I found I just started with my bangs, I just grabbed two strands just beyond my natural part and twisted as close to my hairline as possible.

Before I used a tiny claw thingy to clip it back, I ran my fingers under it to loosen up the twist and add some volume.

This was the result.

Here is a up-close-selfy look at how it looked. For the other side, I just pulled the hair back and used a few clips to hold it all up in a bun type thing. It did not look as good as this side since I did all of this without a mirror.

So sassy - right? Again, I did this without a mirror and while I was watching a Lethal Weapon marathon on TV. Probably drunk.

Here is a glimps of what I normally do to the back of it, just twist is up with little claws. You probably will want a mirror for this part. But, practice makes perfect!

Just keep trying. :)
