Those are sooo cool! I really want to try one of those multi-strand braids when my hair's a little longer. They look so intricate and difficult to do, but I'd like to try nonetheless. Thanks for posting these Madora.

Wow - very unique braids on that site! I'd love to try the one strand braids and am kinda in awe of the seven and nine strand braids. How does one even DO that? I have enough trouble with a simple english braid.

I only wish the site had instructions to go along with the pictures. I looked but I didn't see any. :(

I love the look of the five strand braid. Seems like you need at least waist length hair for most of the styles

I get accused of doing fancy/complicated hairstyles by some friends of mine. I seriously need to show this site to prove them wrong! :p

Now please excuse me while I go pick my jaw up off the floor.

Thank you so much for sharing this web site, Madora! :flower:

HOLY HONK. I wish this person wasn't all the way across the country! I'd certainly have to book an appointment otherwise...

I want to be a princess too! Only princesses have that hair, hehe.

Actually several of them remind me of mermaids, the way they cascade and are sleek and shiny like the mermaid just came up from the water so fabulous.

/gasp! I LIVE here now! That's only 4 hours away!

The seven and nine stranded braids are simply STUNNING. The finger dexterity of whoever the braider was who did those styles is out of this world. How do you NOT get confused about which strand cross over which strand when you are working with that many strands?!

Glad all of you are enjoying those beautiful braids! She is bringing out a book in 2013! I can't wait to get my paws on it! (not that I'll be able to do them, but intricate braiding fascinates me).

Thank you for the link, Madora! Those braids are stunning! I can't believe I thought the box braid I just learned is complicated... I wish I could do the seven and nine strand braids. I'll have to keep an eye out for the book.

Piece of candy! I love the way six strands look when braided. I'm working on braiding hand-fasting cords... They are lovely!

Haha, I know how to do all of the braids with one, two, and three strands, and I know how to do (though I'm not good at it) one of the 4strand braids. :D I feel kinda good about myself...

Thnks for the link! I'm definitely sticking around there to learn to get past four strands. :)

Beautiful! Thank you for sharing. I was just trying to do a 7 strand braid yesterday, this should be quite helpful!

I've been looking for this everywhere! Thank you so much, Madora! I think I may do one of those tonight.

Those are amazing. 7 strand and 9 strand braids! Even doing it on someone else, how do they have enough fingers and hands :bigeyes:

Oh my gosh these are beautiful. If I ever have to go to the hairdressers again I'll know what to ask for ;) (braids!)

Oh...my...gosh. I love braids and these are amazing. I am determined to learn the 5-strand on myself. Not to mention that I'm now very curious about the single strand? Thanks for the inspiration.

Wow, those are amazing!
Just measured our 10 year old tonight and she's at tailbone & 31", I want to experiment with some of those 5 & 7 strands on her. :)

Wondering about that one strand braid... Is there instructions anywhere? All of the braids are truly amazing!

Although I am not fond of the general style (too much princessey-flowers-in the-crown-braids stuff, yuck shudder:), the skill is nothing short of otherwordlly - just WOW !

Truly inspirational! Oh, how I'd like to see some of the 5-strand dutch styles on my head...on my wedding maybe. Hah! Only dreams, I will never be able to find a hairstylist able to replicate these in my region. I'll have to learn them myself :eyebrows:
