Wow Addy I love the new june pics of ur hair. The length is longer and it looks great. I love the pics in the sun as well and the french braid with the sticks. I cant wait until mine is long. If my long hair looks half as good as urs ill be happy :) ANd the ponytail shot is awesome. ur hair looks nice and thick which is always a plus. What all styles shoud I try as a guy with braids and ponytails and buns and that?

Okay, since I didn't take any June pics, I figured I better get on the ball. LOL  Here is a pic on wash day.  I put it in a bun a few hours ago so it's a little wild.
 

Here is the bun I had it in.  I usually wear this bun all the time.  Pretty soon, it won't work as well because my hair is growing which is okay with me.

I hope to be near waist by Christmas.  I don't know if I'll make it but time will tell.

Rope braiding can be difficult for some.   I would explain it as taking two pieces of hair and twisting each one in one direction and and wraping it over the other in the opposite direction.  Search for Youtube vids on ropebraiding and you should come up with tutitorials.  That's how I learned.  Wink

Here is a french braid upclose.  I didn't get much of a tail braid on this but it's one of my better braids.
 

Here is a side french braid I did but I didn't wear it out this day.  I didn't like the way the front looked.  Besides, I was just piddling around.
 

This is what I get when I leave dd do my hair...
