Micro Braid Pullback

This style is actually one from our archives and has been one of my favorite simple styles over the years. When I posted "Wrap Around w/Little Braids" 7 years ago, it was just a step-by-step with pictures and done on "Bug," my middle daughter. Today we've made a quick video and it's done on my youngest daughter "Bee." It's just so simple, but so pretty. Those are my favorites! Below is the original hairstyle from 2009, and it's been one that has been repinned and recreated by others so ... continue reading...

Micro Braid Striped Bun | Back-to-School Style

Today is the first day of school for all my girls. I can hardly believe summer is over and this next chapter of our life has started. It's strangely quiet and I already miss them being here! Anyway, if you follow us on Instagram, you probably saw the picture that is below, that I shared a couple weeks ago. If you don't follow us yet, go HERE to follow us now, or search for us @babesinhairlandblog. My oldest daughter, who’s 13, created this style on herself (which turned out awesome if I do ... continue reading...

4 Strand Braid with a Micro Braid

A couple years ago I shared tutorials on a 3D 4 stranded braid, along with a 4 strand braid that was flat. This is also a flat 4 strand braid, but I added a micro braid & you have to braid the strands in a different order to get this look. It's not hard, just a different order of doing things. So watch how we did it! I can't get over how "reverse ombre" her hair looks with this braid! Hopefully the video makes sense, and you don't have to add a micro braid to this style. You can ... continue reading...

Knotted Bun & Micro Braids | Back-to-School Hair

It's been so hot this summer and Bee has wanted her hair up a lot. This is another great way to make a bun that holds your hair quite well, but isn't just a normal braided bun. You could make this "messy" if you want by pulling pieces out and doing it with totally dry hair. And if you've got really long hair, this is another great way to secure your hair up in a bun without braiding it. This is also perfect for back-to-school because it will hold up during all the hard play at recess! It's ... continue reading...

Micro Braid Updo

I seriously have a crush on this beautiful updo! It's probably one of my favorites ever! I did this updo on Bee clear last May and as often happens, I'll try something and love how it turns out (and have finished product pictures) -- but have no step-by-step pictures for you. So finally after all these months I did this as a holiday style in December and took pictures along the way. It turned slightly different - but you'll get the idea. And in the end, how you wrap the micro braids is ... continue reading...

Figure 8 Braid with Micro Braids

If you've been checking a few of the other hair blogs lately, you know that Jen from All Things Ribbon sent us some of her beautiful flower clips she calls "Vintage Mums" and so we've kind of had "The Mum Challenge" going on! First off, I've got to say that Jen of all the things I've gotten from Jen, these satin Mums are by far my FAV! The names she gives them make them sound yummy (like Raspberries & Cream or English Toffee), but when you see them in real life, they truly are divine! :) I'd ... continue reading...
