Deep side parting with a french plait going across the front of my face and pinned back. Not sure what you call that!

Considering how basic it is I've never been able to quite get it right before today!

That looks really good! I can never seem to get the joining right so congratulations.

That is so pretty! I'm gonna check the video out, but just by looking at it I know it takes more patience than I have.

Isn't it great finally getting something we couldn't before? It feels like such an accomplishment even if it is only hair. Looks very nice too!

It is!

I'm glad I'm not the only one who always feels really proud!

Ren Fest hair!

Apparently my henna application on my underlayer needs work LOL. Ah well, that is a project for another day.

Thanks! You are sweet.

I particularly like the second picture because I can clearly see the difference between my hennaed sparklies and my untreated ones. It is kinda fun to see the comparison in the color.
