Chain braids, great accents for a smooth bun

Hi friends,

Thank you for all the views and comments on my new length pictures, I was so excited to get to share them with you here on my blog.  Today I fixed my hair in a simple smooth bun with three chain braids as accents.  (Chain braids are what I like to call a 3-strand push-up braid.)

Accented French Braid

Hi everybody,

     I loved the double-braid/push-up accent combination so much that I decided to try another version, this time using a push-up braid and a lace braid to accent my French braid.  Adding small accents to a French braid are a quick and easy way to make an extra-special hairstyle.

Double braids with a push-up accent~ my attempt to rise to the challenge

Hi everybody,

A few days ago a challenge was posted on the Braid Zone's Facebook page, to make a hairstyle using double braids and push-up braid accent.  Here are pictures of my own attempt to meet the challenge :-)  I made a zig-zag part, then braided my hair in two French braids. I left a small section of hair out of one side to use as my accent braid which was a regular 3-strand English braid.  I finished off my look with a loose side bun.
     Thank you for coming by to see my pictures!  I hope you have a lovely day, whatever season of the year it happens to be where you are. I'm excited to say that although technically it is fall here where I am visiting friends in the US, the weather has been almost as warm as summertime! Beautiful changing leaves with warm tempratures <3
