MY FAVOURITE BRAIDS

Yeah, you know I'm all too braid obsessed as of late. Blame Instagram. Everyone's out there with these extra cute braided hair dos, and I'm here with my bird's nest trying to remember when it last got brushed. In hope of smartening up my locks, I've adopted braids as my go-to for helping a sister out. The four above are the ones I tend to go for, plus they're actually pretty easy to master. 

1. Braided Ponytail

I did this one in a video a while back, with the one above being the standard braid version. It's always one I go for when I'm trying to jazz up a ponytail and helps to show off my blonder bits. 

2. Half Up Half Down

Yeah, it does make me feel a tad medieval, but I love this one when I want my hair out of my face without it all being scraped back. 

3. Dutch Plait

I was a die hard French plait for school kind of kid (ain't no time for getting nits), these days opting for the Dutch plait for something a little more chunky, that I can fuzz up throughout the day. The BFF for summer holidays.

4. Fishtail

A basic. It's easy once you know it (YouTube tutorials are always on hand), and I love being able to wear it either super neat or all pulled out and fluffy.
