TO BRAID OR NOT TO BRAID...

I'm so glad its almost summer.  The one thing that reminds me of the beach is cute braids in your hair!  Now obviously like anything, there is a way to wear them that is completely wrong, and there are ways to be totally chic about it! 

In an earlier post I had blogged about cutting bangs, and now... I'm totally sick of them!  I figured a cute little braid at the front would keep them out of my face for the day!  I could either wear my hair up, or down, and it would be perfectly acceptable (or at least I think so...). 
Gosh, now that I look at this picture I can't believe how terribly I need a tan!!!  The picture of my hair today is the upper left picture.  I also did a post awhile back of the picture to the right.  I think I like the one on the right better because it has some definition from my highlights.  I also know I'm in need of some serious color in my hair right not.  It has this terrible greenish tinge to it... Blah!  As of Sunday when I get home I will be rectifying it!

Now I searched the Internet for some braids that I like and then there are some that just speak for themselves!  I hope you love the chic ones, and get a chuckle out of the "not so chic" ones!
Obviously you can tell that these two are my favorites!  They just look so feminine and fun!  Who wouldn't love to have hair like this?


WOW!!  I think this is just a faux pas no matter which way you look at it!
White Gangsta in the house!! Like seriously dude... WTF?
I don't even want to know...

I know this guy doesn't have braids... but this is just so wrong that I had to post it anyways!

PS:  If anyone that reads this blog is pictured above and is offended that they made the 'WORST BRAIDS IN HISTORY POST", I'm not sorry!  But seriously, take my advice and find a new stylist!

These braid photos are awesome. My mum used to put my hair into a ponytail and then braid it. I found as a child this was a good deterrent to annoying boys used as a whip.... oh childhood memories....
