    Default Name That Hairstyle

    I'd call this my:
    "lazy woman's Dutch braid" or "third day hair chic."
    Either way it's a fun way to have a faux-braid that helps my thin hair look a little less sad!

    How did you wear your hair today?

    I know this is off topic, but I think you have the perfect hair for this hairstyle. I came to think about it when I saw your pic

    I love the way pull through braids look! I'm too scared of damage from the tiny elastics to do them very often, though. Your hair looks great, Mrs. Day! I wish mine looked that nice on day three lol. Maybe I'll have to try your "Lazy woman's Dutch braid" .

    I will say my hair is not usually this nice and cooperative on day 3. It's so greasy and limp! Tomorrow is wash day finally!

    Oh, I used to put my daughters' hair up like that for school sometimes, MrsDay. Pretty!

    Today my nautilus bun is getting into the groove with my bass clef, so, ummmmm, Boom Bump?

    Isn't that called a bubble braid? I think so. I could be wrong!

    Banded french ponytail? SEctioned ponytail? Sectioned french ponytail?

    ETA: I called it in one of my blog's hair style inspiration post a "Segmented (french) ponytail".

    Haha, thanks for the inspiration!
    I've tried it on my chin (jawline?) length 3day old hair with faux braids in the front, and actually I like it very much
    Today I was just struggling with it, most of the day it was in half-up in a small "man bun", but this one feels more natty

    I'm using silicone elastics, and having the same concerns (my hair is too short and sleek for the padded ones when not in pony or in 2 pigtail). Do silicone elastics bad for hair if not used on wet hair/daily bases?
