I am in love with braiding. Random, but once in high school...I braided over 10+ heads in a row for our school musical. It wasn't just any regular braid either. It was an all over the head, spiral, twist, this way - that way kinda braid. Sort of like the middle right picture. I swore my hands were going to fall off that night. It was so fun though and all of the girls loved it. Or at least that's what I remember. I just wish I was able to braid my own hair like that, but apparently my arms are not that flexible. Anyway, braids are so fun and there are so many ways to change them up! Are you getting your braid on this winter? I am!

i love braids too...on other people! hehe. i don't like how they look on me. maybe cuz i wore my hair in braids all the time for gymnastics that i associate it with that. no clue - but these braids you featured are all so gorgeous!

Braids are lovely. I never learned how to french braid, so I have really never tried to style my hair with braids.

Perhaps I can find a friend who would braid my hair for me...

I could never pull of these braids but these celebrities look gorgeous in them... espcially Fergie!

I went through a braid-obsessed phase last summer! They're so sweet, whimsical and classic all at the same time, and easy to wear if your hair is slightly on the greasy side aha (: I've been braiding my hair a LOT recently! xx

I love braids. Too bad I suck at all things feminine. ha ha. It looks like a second grade with missing thumbs messed with my hair every time I try to braid :) Glad to know there are some ladies out there who've got the whole femininity thing down.

Thanks for stopping by To Spend Or Save! I'm glad to have found another Bama blogger too-especially one from Birmingham!

My friend can do her own braiding, but that is crazy! I barely can do an easy one, I get confused. :) I think braids are very romantic.

Love all of these! Especially the first one and Nicole's!
I can't wait for my hair to get a bit longer so I can start braiding it :)

I love the fishtail braid. I tried to do it the other day and it didn't work out so well. I need more practice!

Yeas I may as well try to braid my hair this winter!
It looks vintagey in a strange kind of way, which I love!
Defo fan.

Sorry for my incredibly late reply, but blogging has been off my agenda for about a week!
Finally have a new post up :)
