Yesterday I posted on my blog a pic of my first french twist (looked more like a french mess :D) Today's attempt looks much better. And I cannot believe MY hair is that SHINY!!!! :cheese::cheese:

I still can't manage a decent twist. I always get a funny poof on top of my head.

Very shiny!

Mandamom! That's a really nice-looking French Twist!

And a drop-dead gorgeous barrette! :agape: Or is it a clip?

Practice. Keep practicing it, and it'll come more smoothly and more easily.



Ohio_sky - If you get too much of a bump on top of your French Twist, you need to do one or more of the following ---
tuck the top back down in, and secure it with pin(s) or a hair fork
OR
clamp it with your 1st and 2nd fingers lower down, closer to your scalp
and/OR
twist and/or roll it over tighter with your other hand (the hand that's not holding the top of the twist in a finger vise)

Just like I told Amandamom: Practice. Keep practicing it, and it'll come more smoothly and more easily.

Thanks :D

Yes it's a barrette. I was looking for a new hair toy and couldn't find any I liked, then as I was turning to leave I saw just a little bit of blue sticking out from under a pile of other stuff. I pulled it out and voila! I was in love :D
