The Side Braid...

So, I'm officially obsessed. I have always like braiding my hair - it's so thin, it's about the only thing I can do to it. I love long hair but hate hair in my face or down my back - especially when it is hot out. I hate snarls in my hair too. I hate bangs but also hate no bangs...and I can't do my own hair.

So, this season on the Hills (my guilty pleasure!), Lauren has been wearing the side braid. I adore the side braid - solves all my problems, right... Wrong - I can't do it, can not absolutely figure out how. I have been practicing every morning in front of the mirror and I can not do it!! I have been scouring the internet trying to find out how to do it... I can't figure it out. I'm seriously thinking about going to a salon and having them 'show' me how to do it.

So, yesterday while I was sitting at my desk at work, my hair was driving me crazy! So I just started braiding it back and guess what - it was the best side braid I've ever done! All that practice in front of a mirror and nothing, but sitting at my computer at work, I can do it. I'm going to try it again today and see... I suppose if I'm successful, I hope you like the side braid as well - you may see a lot of it...
