Yarn Braid Extensions
I am super excited about a new hair technique I discovered via Youtube. I have never been to Youtube and was visiting a blog of a family that adopted twins girls from Africa last summer and she spent last weekend adding yarn braid extensions to their hair. She learned how by watching a few videos on Youtube. Curiosity took me to those same videos and I was excited to try. I spent about 6 hours over two day working on Ayana's hair. They look so good! Her "hair" is now twice as long as it is normally and I can pull it into just about any style I want including pig tails or one pony tail. She LOVES her hair. She is constantly bouncing around, swinging the braids and touching how long they are. She looks so different too! It is fairly easy once you get the hang of it and it lasts about 4-6 weeks. Plus it is super cheap...like $5 for the yarn and free for my time!This is going to be my new summer/swimming hair do for her!
