Braided Hairstyles :3

There are a lot of things going on right now and I feel that I need a distraction. Whenever I need to study, I would always do girly things like experiment with makeup or do my nails to procrastinate. This time, I played with my hair because it is currently hot. I was looking at an article at DailyMakeover about pretty braided hairstyles at Pinterest. I wanted to do braids because I think they're pretty and they'll make my uber long roots look forgivable.

This is my inspiration for hairstyle #1
What I did was simply french braid my hair starting from the side, above the ear. I continued on through the crown and ended on top of my other ear and continued on to a simple braid.

Nailed it?

My rooooootsss!

Pardon my photography skills. Do you have any idea to take pictures of your hair from different angles by yourself? It was so hard I just kinda gave up. So anyway, I still want my hair out of the way so I decided to modify the hairstyle a bit. I undid the simple braid and continued the french braid until it reached the other side and did a simple braid to the rest of my hair.

I love how the braid is positioned as if dividing my hair colors. It wasn't intentional though, I was practically braiding blind and relied only on my proprioception. I love happy accidents like this :)
