unique braid for long hair

We have been enjoying this fun "scallop edge braid" and have used it to make a variety of cute hairstyles recently!

There was a picture posted on our facebook page awhile back by one of our readers, which was a french braid or dutch braid with the edges of the plait flared out and woven.  We decided to try and recreate that braid, but without the french braiding (to simplify it a bit) and this is how it turned out! Btw, I wish I could find that picture now to show you. But, facebook has made some changes to the way things are displayed on our page and I'm finding it very difficult to find older pictures on there now.  UGH.

Her hair is getting quite long now, isn't it? I'm loving it with curls! I think this would be a cute hairstyle for a flower girl, wedding, church, recital, school, or even a renaissance faire.

If you are wondering how we created the curls shown in these pictures, we used a regular old curling iron and the curling technique found at this link: How to Curl Hair Video
