My Husband had surgery last Friday and I have been super busy trying to do all the stuff around the house AND take care of him this weekend. He is doing okay (nothing life threatening). I wanted to post this sooner but life just gets away with me sometimes! Too bad I have to work during the week!
This was pretty simple, and I love the way it turned out. When you do braids up front like this...the options are endless for the next day's hair-do.
Start by parting her hair on both sides down to the middle of her ear, and pull the rest back into a ponytail.
Section out 3 equal sections and then pull the middle one up and out of the way.
I braided 3 braids in the left section.
Then I braided 3 braids in the right section but only part way down.
I braided 4 in the middle section. Once again pulling these up and out of the way.
Take the top of the 3 braids on the left side and connect it to the top braid on the right side. Notice I connected them on the back/right side of her head?
Then braid this piece. Add the next braid down on each side into the middle piece. Repeat with the bottom braid on each side.
Grab the 4 braids from the middle section and weave them over and under the sideways braids,(alternating with each braid).
I slipped some decorative bobby pins down into the connection points of the connecting braid to cover the elastics. Curl the hair. I did half ringlets and half partial curls.

Can you see my dying plants in the background. Maybe I should spend more time doing yard work and less time doing hair! LOL!
