All About Braids

The braids are back in town! All over the blogosphere and in magazines, braids seem to be popping up left and right. As a kid, my mom used to French braid my sisters and my hair all the time, and despite much practice, I have never been able to braid my own hair as good as she braided mine.

However, these Heidi-braids make me want to bust out braids all over again!

I've been itching to give the Heidi braids a shot. Now you've got me really motivated.

I know...all the models look super cute. I am trying to decide if I could pull it off (or even do it myself in the first place)!

They are adorable! I'm a hair-challenged person. Usually I stick to keeping it in a pony tail or just down. I'm going to designate time to just work on braiding. lol.

I love the braids and I miss having them like I did as a kid. My mom would french braid my hair so tight when it was wet and I'd sport that for a day or so. Then I'd take it out and my hair would be perfectly wavy. Now, my hair has thinned out a lot and doesn't hold braids too well. I miss my kid hair badly and wish I had thick hair so I could do these awesome braids!

braids are awesome! My hair is so thin though that I feel as though I don't have enough to work a decent look braid. :\
