Arisia braid is a win

[juldea]

Since I had made such a post and fuss about getting my hair braided by blk at Arisia this year, I figured I'd follow up to show off what she was able to do. Yay!

The style I decided to go with was a braided headband - the photo to base it off of was this. blk had no problem with this - you can see her results here, here, and here, as well as in my new usericon!

I also want to point out another braid she did just for its pure awesome, a hair-into-beard braid for a young gentleman. I found it cool, don't you?

blk says that my hair is totally long and thick enough that next year, we can do a spiral. Yay!

I bet your hair is also long and thick enough for a spiral. I could try it, but I won't guarantee results! Also it would require me being able to stand up and move around you easily, which I can't at the moment. Also for you to sit still for a while. ;)

I learned the mechanics of 4+ strand braids at http://www.dreamweaverbraiding.com/Braiding_Tips.htm and it is probably the kind of thing you're looking for. And if you want to practice on my hair, I'd love it!
