the heart braid.
the goal of this creation was making a heart shaped braid. i basically accomplished my goal. please forgive my rudimentary Paint skills as i demonstrate. :)

i began by separating her hair into a top and bottom half, on a diagonal.
i french braided the top half up toward her bangs, included the bangs, then took a turn into the middle to make the rest of that half of the heart.
the i french braided the bottom half up, mirroring the top half.
i made a giant braid in the middle the heart and curled it into a bun.
topped with a bow!
enjoy!

the scorpion braid.
a braid inspired by my childhood in arizona, living in fear of finding one of these nasty creatures in a shoe.
this is a nifty take on the fishtail braid! read below for a little how-to description.
i began with all her hair straight down. then i separated it into two large chunks, pulling hair from by her ears.
i did essentially a fishtail braid, just on her head instead of in a ponytail.
i stopped at the base of her neck and separated the braid into three pieces. i made a little regular braid. then switched again to fishtail. then back to regular for the end of the braid.
i think it turned out pretty well!enjoy.

race to the finish.
this is a pinterest inspiration. i added a checkered flag ribbon for our mutual love of racing :) it looks super cool with felicia's two-toned hair since the top half is red and the bottom half is black.
this is essentially half french braid, half regular braid.
i started on the right, grabbing all the hair off her neck.
i tried to keep the braid as loose as possible, so that it would fall in a diagonal.
i just tied the end with a pony elastic and then weaved the ribbon through it!
super easy and really pretty.
