Crazy braids

Hi hi hi!

It's the Lieutenant :)

So if you've got long hair, and want to look for something fun to do with it, here's a few braids you can try out yourself!

First, if you don't know how to do a French braid, take a look at one of the YouTube tutorials, like this one:

French braids look kinda complicated, but they're actually real easy!

Once you've figured out the French braid, try a few twisted versions of it, like these ;)

The ones as shown in the pictures, are perfect for keeping your long hair healthy as it doesn't tangle throughout the day or get damaged from rubbing the strands against each other like it does when you just have it loose. Also static is a real cuticle killer :P

In addition, close fitting braids like this are really kind to your scalp as it doesn't pull you skin with the weight of your hair as is usually the case with regular ponytails and buns.

Ever get that sore scalp feeling after you take your hair down at the end of the day? That's the skin on your head stressed and screaming for relief :S Use this style to let it have a break without getting your hair in the way ;)

Hope this helped a bit for the hair lovers out there!

Thanks for reading ;)
