Around-the-World Braid for Short Hair

Braids aren’t just for long hair and New Beauty Magazine shows us how it’s done in this video. This braid works beautifully as an updo and perhaps one of the best parts of this hairstyle is that this style will last for a couple of days.

Braid-in-a-braid

This is probably one of the easiest hairstyles you’ll ever do and it looks really cool. This braid-in-a-braid style consists of one micro braid in the middle of your hair which you’ll use as one of the strands in the three strand braid and then you just braid as normal. It’s that easy but it looks like you put much more work into it. Perfect for those days you don’t know what to do with your hair and crave something different.

Famous Quotes

Love is like a friendship caught on fire. In the beginning a flame, very pretty, often hot and fierce, but still only light and flickering. As love grows older, our hearts mature and our love becomes as coals, deep-burning and unquenchable.
