I made a hairband from an old tank top
Quick and easy! Also alot cheaper than buying one and better for the environment.
I'll post a tutorial on how to do it during the next few days.

Matching my hair with my T-shirt today.
Hair and dandelions
Playing around taking hair pictures, instead of doing the things that I should do... I'll do them later.
It's funny how angel, waves and shadows can make hair longer than finger tip length look shorter.
And yeah, my hair's "frizzy" today.
My hair and dress is the same length! (wearing a skirt under the dress).

Today I wear a different hair sword with a self made flexi.
I was asked if I could do more pirate/warrior and fairy hairstyles, so this was a quick "celtic warrior" style.
Any suggestions on more styles that matches any of these categories?

New paranda
I made a new paranda today!
Quick historically inspired updo
Not completely serious. I actually made it to try a tecnique for future hairstyles.
First time I'm using my phone for writing a blog post, so I don't know how it will look. Are the pictures big or normal size?
Video tutorial for the braided romatic updo
It seems as if I forgot to share the tutorial here, so I'll do it now!
Yesterdays hairstyle
Yesterday, a friend braided my hair.
Dutch braids with a ribbon and a twisted Chinese ladder braid.
She's so skilled!
I'm actually wearing the Dutch braids today with a braided bun.
P - Pretzel bun
O - Orchid bun
I have to admit that I like how huge it looks...
N - Neoma knot bun.
Taking up this challenge again!
Daenggi
I made a very simple and basic daenggi from a satin ribbon.
New hairstick!
Today, this wonderful hairstick from Oragerium arrived!
I love it!
The bun is a celtic knot bun.
She also added this lovely postcard and an envelope!
Todays hairstyle 03/03-19 Cable braid
Todays hairstyle 12/02-19 Braids (and lots of u-pins)
It's four braids.
Two with the "front hair" that's been wrapped around the top of my head.
And two in the back. I made a cinnabun with one braid and then continued to wrap the other one around it.
And in the end, I decided to put in some ornaments to make it more interesting.
Another snood
You can read about it on my instagram, but I had eye laser surgery last week. Having bad eyesight (it improves every day now!), I did stuff that required less eyesight. And one of those things where to finish another snood!
Now I want to buy more yarn to make another one. I'd really like to make a red one!
What I use to comb and brush my hair
First I use a wide toothed wooden comb and my fingers to detangle my hair.
Then I follow up with my boar bristle brush. Sometimes I also use the top one to spread oil or sebum in my hair, or the middle one to smoothen my hair a bit extra.
just as the bottom comb in the first picture.
The brush in the middle I got with a comb (that I use to clean my brushes now), when I was baptised or something like that. I found it at my fathers attic one and a half year ago, and decided to use it again. I don't know what the bristles are made of.
The top one I got many years ago for brushing our foal (it was my first horse brush), that later became my horse. When I could no longer keep my horses I decided to keep the brush as it was nostalgic to me. I cleaned it and after I year or so, I realized that I could use it for my own hair. I don't know what the bristles are made of.
I still miss my horse...
It was also in the stable that I learned most of what I know about braiding. My horse had a lace braid in the picture (and a french braid in his tail).
