Pony Tail w/ Flair

This last week has been a difficult one for me. And I haven't posted or thought of posting or shot anything new... its just been a little crazy around here. I had a family member die and with helping as much as I could with things that needed to be done with the family and dealing with my own emotional struggle. Through it all I have neglected Girly Do's. I still feel like I am neglecting you a tad bit as this isn't an amazingly unique idea... neither was my last one. But I wanted to share anyways. Sometimes this is just the kind of hair do you need or certain days.

For this one I section out the would be bang area or the fringe area and toss that aside. Right behind it I part out a triangle area off centered and to one side. I am going to braid that with the five strand braid (nothing added to the braid)

And I am going to braid it VERY LOOSE. I want this to kind of look like it has been woven rather than braided.

Then with the hair left down I am pulling everything back into a pony tail except that braided area. That we will add in to the pony in a second.

I then take a chunk out of the pony and I am going to fold that over the top. to give this a little boost on top. Secure it folded over with a rubber band.

Then incorporate your braid into the style by wrapping it around the pony tail and securing with a rubber band. Flair up that hair from the pony that you wrapped around in the previous step so you have a rooster tail on top.

This is what you should have in the end. Just a little more style added to this fun little pony tail.
