I had my hair braided by a professional braider.  It turned out so beautiful!  It's nice to have my own hair done once in a while... lol

Wow, I like how the ribbon looks like greenery to accent the little flowers (I like garden hair!). 

Nice new picture too Paper, it looks a lot different now!

Thank you, Paper and Susan!  I was very pleased with how it turned out.  Although several people asked if I had put green streaks in my hair........... LOL

Shortvslong, I have photo instructions for how to do that style on my site if your interested.

Sarah, I love your beautiful braid.  It looks like you are ready to get married!  Thanks for sharing the picture.  I was reading your website and was wondering what type of shea butter you put on your hair ends.  ThanksSmile

Kimbearly- thank you! Wink  I buy my shea butter from a local vendor here.  It's raw, unprocessed butter.

Sarah, thanks for all of the hair photos on your link. We should feel privileged. I can't tell what I appreciated more, though: your photos or the info on Locks of Love. I guess I'm grateful for both.
Who has more fun than people?

Sarah, it is beautiful! How long can you leave it in for?
I know what you meen about having your hair done for a change, I am always doing my daughter's hair. You deserve it, though. Pamper yourself once in a while, so you can better achieve  goals in all the other areas of your life.

Embarrassed Thanks Dave.  #15 is actually a couple years old.  Scroll down a little and you'll see the latest.  I haven't put them in the photo album yet.
 
Alisa,
I had the braid done on a Saturday evening and left it till Tuesday evening.  It still looked good enough to last another day or two, but my head was starting to itch from needing washed.

Ah, I see now (had computer problems the other day, making it not plainly visible).  That is really cool with the ribbon braided into it! barmy
