I thought this was a cute little detail.
And, well, I didn't hate it.
The good
- It is a cute little detail
- Splitting my hair up for the accent braid where they showed, proved to be fairly accurately one third of the volume, so it looked like a very nice and even braid to begin with
The bad
- Lifting the front of my hair to make an accent braid, made the length thin out very fast. So I had to bring extra hair in from BSL-ish
- Which means that the accent braids detail disappeared very fast. Of course that's what the tutorial shows as well, but it's still sad to see a potentially nice detail disappear so easily. Why not do something else instead of this then?
My thoughts
- This will definitely work better for shorter hair
- Or maybe if you bring in a lot of extensions for the accent braid (Would be kind of cute in contrasting colours!)
- Maybe bunning the braids would be nice: It would hide how the accent braid disappears and you would still have the crossing braids in the back
Would I do this style again?
Nope. Not unless I suddenly had some very long extensions at hand to do this with.
To solve the problem of the accent braid disappearing too fast, couldn't you take new hair from the inside of the bigger braid (so it's not noticable) and make a new accent braid once the first has come to an end? (I hope you can understand what I mean...)
