These were a couple of weeks ago, but been in my camera, hope yall can get an idea of what the style looked like. My hair is thinning in the back so my choice for protective styles are limited.

Cat Eyes your styles are so elegant!!
The Southern Tease Bun is the greatest style ever invented! Ha Ha! I only have *snap* this much hair and I can do it. And it looks cute. I dressed it up with some flowers...

Cute hairdo's on this thread.

I wear my hair in an updo or bun 99% of the time. I have some protective styles in my album:

Your hair is seriously pretty and I love that brownish flower! Great inspiration here! I've been wearing my hair down and I will be one more day, but after that back into the PS's I go!!! :blush:

Here's one of my versions of the Southern Tease bun. I love how it looks different on everyone. I want to try it again because it came out a little tighter the last time I did it.

Here's a side braid ending up in a bun and secured with a flexi-8. It's a little blurry, hope you can see it.


Here is an older version of this hairdo with a fancy ponytail holder. You can see the braid better on this one.

Super cute... now that my hair is getting longer... my bun is not looking like it did when I first started doing but I like how it's beginning to become something else.

I'm 2 weeks behind :look:, so here goes:

WEEK 9: STICKS AND STONES

I took a french roll with curly ends and added a wooden stick and small rhinestone butterfly clip. To get my hair curly without heat I used my favorite method of wet bun on day 1, and on day 2 I rolled the ends of my hair. Very easy and effective.

Whew it's week 10 already? :look: :giggle: Here goes:

WEEK 10 - DOIN' THE TWIST PART DEUX

I used a loose elastic and put my hair into a low ponytail. I parted the base of the ponytail above the elastic, looped my ponytail up and through the part and let the ends hang free. It formed kind of a bun with a little tail. Then I popped on a flower so I could be like the lovely flower ladies all through this thread! :cool:

:lachen: Lemme try again.
  1. Put your hair in a low, loose ponytail.
  2. Stick your finger right above the elastic and poke a hole all the way through so your finger is poking down and touching your neck. Leave your finger there.
  3. Grab your ponytail with the other hand and pull it up towards the ceiling
  4. Start stuffing it into the hole from the base (not the ends) until it is fully looped around the elastic and the ends of your hair are sticking out and hanging down.
If that still doesn't make sense :giggle: here is the YT tut that I jacked it from. :look:

Scroll to the 5:00 point, and try to ignore the annoying music. :perplexed
