A quick messy braided hairstyle

Since I'm off today, I didn't wash my hair. There was no point in putting effort into it when I was just going to be cleaning the house, cleaning out the car, cooking a bit, and going to the gym. Plus I try to give my hair a break every once in awhile. :)

So, I saw this tutorial on Pinterest for a french braid on one side, but it was left down. I just gathered mine up in a mess, wrapped a clear rubber band around it twice and pulled a few hairs loose in front.



super quick, super easy, but a little bit more interesting than just a ponytail!

  7. Thanks for all of your tutorials :)
    What are your tips on washing/not washing your hair? I have always had better success with my hair when I wash it at night & style it in the morning (my hair is fine, non-permanent colored dark brown, and naturally wavy/curly but very easy to straighten). When I wear my hair curly it often looks better the next day (dirty) & when I wear it straight it looks great on day 2 in the morning, but is often quite oily by noon, or earlier. Love to have your thoughts.

  8. Sj: I think it's different for each person. If you are able to go a few days without washing, great! If you have to wash everyday, just use a good conditioner and good products to keep your hair soft and healthy!

  19. How do you get that volume? I can never seem to figure it out, other than teasing like crazy, but after all my teasing it just looks like a birds nest. Any suggestions on products to use? A how-to video would be great :)
