Guess what braid is this

[RitaPG]

It didn't took as long as I thought it would, but if I had to make it on my own head, it would probably take up to an hour.
Hope you enjoy it :)

Now guess the name of the braid! :p

Beautiful! Is it the Rapunsel (Tangled) braid? It looks a lot like Torrin Paige's tutorial style. Now, you have to tell us the answer some time instead of laughing at us all :tongue: and never revealing your secret! :):lol:

The lace braid is pretty obvious, you grab a section from the temples to the nape, and braid it.
The length, not so easy to figure out.. It seems like a 4 strand braid, with 8 braids (this is where I had to look at Torrin's tutorial, she made 4 on each side, that's how I did it too)

Sorry florenonite :flower:

[mrs_coffee]

I just saw Torrin's video on this braid a couple of days ago. It seemed like it took her forever to do, but it's beautiful. You did a fantastic job.

Sorry florenonite :flower:

Heh, no worries :)

[Velvet Dreamer]

It looks awesome. ö

[Syrena]

It looks very pretty! How long did it take to do?

[hypersensitive]

Really cool. Braided braids look even more intricate with dark color hair :)

[Savvyhorsez]

Lovely! I could never do that on my own hair! It would turn out quite horrible I think!

[SoulOfTheSea]

That looks so complicated and beautiful! Love it! :)

[wooliswonderful]

Ooh, late to the thread! I would have had it right away, Rita! :)

[longhairedlady]

LOVE it!!!! :)

[freecelt]

Really beautiful :)

[Torrin Paige]

Oh, RitaPG, you got the perimeter braids right! That's what I was aiming for, but my perimeter braiding leaves a lot to be desired. Excellent, excellent job!

[gthlvrmx]

Oh darn! I was so late, i knew it was Arwen the moment i saw it! I wanted to do that style for Prom! But i used a french braid, which was so elegant.
It looks amazing with shorter hair too! Wow, i've only seen it with long hip length hair.

[Safira]

:thudpile: Absolutely beautiful :bowtome:

[greentealeaf]

WOW! That's incredible!

[Dark Rapunzel]

It is absolutely breathtaking! I've tried it, but I had trouble with the lace braids and I have a bunch of mini hairs that make braids look horrible, so I'm waiting a while before doing it again.
