Hair post: Milkmaid braids
I know what you're thinking, it's Monday therefore this weekly hair post is late! But no, technically this is a long weekend and I'm off today, therefore still in the weekend. Right? Here's a step by step tutorial on how I do my milk maid braids à la lovely Zooey Deschanel. I first start off by applying one layer of my clip in extensions to add some length. My hair is just not quite long enough to make it all the way on top of me head just yet. (See that added about 4" to the ends) 1. Seperate hair at the base your head. Don't worry about dividing the top part. 2. Start by making low braids on each side. 3. Secure with small elastic band 4. Continue the same thing on other side. Again, starting the braid very low, behind the ear is best. Now you have two Pipi Longstocking braids! Just like this! 5. Take the braid and fold it over towards the top of your head. Secure it with a couple of bobby pins. 6. Add a few more bobby pins along the braid and secure it close...
