Inside-Out French Braid Up-Do

Brookie made a stunning bridesmaid for McKenna's (Bride who is posted previously) Wedding. She wanted something up, off her neck since her dress had a high collar.


Begin on the side of the hair your hair is not parted to and start the inside-out french braid. Continue braiding around the head and until you reach the other side and add the rest of the hair and braid to the ends. Lay the braid flat and secure with bobbi pins.

You can either pin your bangs back or . . .


leave some down. We pinned them back for the wedding day so we would not have to worry about the wind blowing her hair in her face.

Double French Braid

This is my friend McKenna, a soon to be BRIDE! I am so excited for her! We did a sweet, double braid up-do for her shower last weekend.

With a loose french braid down the front left side into a messy bun.
Check out the back! I love how much more is added with the second braid.
To get this look braid the top braid first then secure with an elastic, then
braid the second one underneath and secure as well, leaving out the front section of your hair down to your ear so you can put a loose french raid in that to meet up with the other two. Then put an elastic around all three braids and take out the other two elastics so you can make the messy bun. Pin in place and you are set!

Braid headband and Ombre

Ombre is a great way to lighten up any dark hair without having to worry about your roots showing or it growing out too quickly.

Meet my younger sister Jessica. She is constantly changing her hair color and always wanting a new style. This is a great on-the-go style.

Start by curling all your hair. Then gather hair from the opposite side of your head and braid it to the very end. Gather all the hair and use a clear elastic band to hold and wrap a thin strip of hair around the elastic and pin in place.
Hannah was so much fun to work with. She knew exactly what style she wanted and had a book with the picture ready! We did a simple look that is great for a quick morning or a last minute invite to an event. Just a side french braid into a loose bun with a few hair accessories and voila! You are set and ready to go!
