Submissions, Please

With 21 credits on my plate this semester, I barely have time to brush my hair, let alone style it. If any readers have hairstyles they would like to display, please post them in the comments section of this post (with pictures if you can). Thanks and have a brilliant weekend!

Tornado of Twists!

This is a style my friend Sarah made by pinning up a lot of little twists. Her hair is very curly so this is easier for her to do than me, as my hair is only wavy. My twists failed a little bit when I tried this.

All she used to hold the twists were bobby pins (and a little hairspray, I think). This would make a beautiful wedding style whether you are the bride or just attending, and it wouldn't be amiss for a fancy evening out or ball.

Greek braid: "Gaia the Earth Goddess"

Here is a style my friend Kate made. I can't do it on myself, but it is really lovely and much like styles on Greek and Roman statues. It would also be great for a Renaissance Faire. I think Kate even looks like the pictures of Gaia in my elementary school history textbooks...

Regency French Twist

My version of a French Twist with curls is a bit sloppy, but you can get the general idea from the pictures.























I think the making of it had something to do with making a loose bun and then turning it on its end and rolling it into itself (leaving the curls out of course). Check out my second ever post ("Timeless Twist: "A La Parisienne"") for French-Twist-making instructions. These will give you at least a skeleton of an idea on how to make this, but I say: "trial and error, my friends!"
