The most awesome heart braid I have ever seen

[PrincessIdril]

So I was browsing youtube and looking for a cute heart themed hairstyle that I might possibly be able to do myself I stumbled upon this gem

This is the most amazing heart braid I have ever seen! I lack the necessary skills to do it myself but is anyone here feeling up to the challenge? Since the tutorial uses a styling head I'd love to see this done with real hair!

Wow! :thud: This style must be just about impossible to achieve without help, unfortunately.

not sure exactly what a heart braid is, but watching the video it seems to be quite similar to the completely awesome braid that a friend of mine posted yesterday.

Heart braids are just hairstyles in which normal braids are shaped to look like hearts, there are so really adorable tutorials on youtube.

:thud: Fyral that is one of the most amazing things I have ever seen

Wow. That is really cute. I am not that skilled.

Maybe because I am over enthusiastic or just that I think lace braids are the easiest braid of all, it doesn't look that hard. However, when we attempt it with The Naughty Mess I highly doubt my heart will not droop. My hair is heavy.

Wow, this looks gorgeous! I wish my hair were thick enough to do this without the part being left free looking, well, stringy.

Double post! :o My first double post ever... dubious pleasure?

Fyral, gorgeous hairstyle and hair. Like teal, I wish I could do it and look so great

PrincessIdrill, thank you SO much! I'm in awe. This is a way to braid I never thaught of and I love it so much !!!

This heart braid is really pretty. Thanks for sharing. Unfortunately I don't think I have the skill to try it out on myself, but it looks easy enough to do with someone else's hair. Maybe I can find myself a volunteer who would let me try it out :)

It doesn't look too complicated skill wise, but I think that doing it on yourself would be difficult, particularly the "shaping the heart" part at the end. Unless you have double mirrors set up so that you can see the back of your head while you're doing that, I don't know how well you'd be able to make sure the heart is shaped evenly. Definitely good to do on someone else though! Very cute style! I've never seen something like that before.

Not a thick hair friendly braid. That or you have to use product. Both times I have tried it I have had to pin the 3d heart up and there is no way I can roll my braids under it. I am trying to dream up a long thick version though.
