Free (Water) Fallin'

Something I always wished I was good at doing is hair. I'm not good at curling, my arms get tired trying to do updo's, and I cannnnnot manage to do a sock bun on myself. I get frustrated VERY easily and then tend to give up!

One of the girls who works at the store with me texted me and asked if I could do a waterfall braid. I texted her back saying I didn't, but look for something on Pinterest like a how-to or something like that that might help. I didn't think about it again until I went into work that following Friday.

She ended up coming in and we played around with it and then finally figured it out! It was SO easy!!! Like I said, that's coming from someone who's NOT good at doing hair! We found a quick tutorial that was easy to understand:

We followed this set of rules and did it ourselves! The first time it ended up cute, but we took it out and re-did it with a better strategy in mind. The second time it came out GREAT! Once we got to the end, we ended it with a clear elastic and wrapped another piece of hair around the elastic, securing it with a blonde bobby pin! Taylor wore her hair like this to a wedding and it looked SMASHING! This is a great hairstyle instead of doing the usual half-up-half-down look and it definitely adds some va-voom to your look!
