Left over right, right over left.. I loved them when i was 9, and i love them again. Plaits are big, easy, and practical too. Many celebs such as Peaches Geldof, Thandie Newton and Fearne cotton have all recently sported this chilled boho look Labels: Beauty, Fashion, Fearne Cotton, Peaches GeldofHow chilled do they look?! I love it. Wear plaits to accompany vintage floral prints with hard leather, and all we need now is the big ball of fire in the sky. Sorted.
To get 'perfect plaits' for 10', follow these simple rules...
Step 1: Apply a mousse before rough drying to create hold and body.
Step 2: Back-comb the hair for extra body and height with a tail comb.
Step 3: Take small sections of hair over to one side and pin in place at the back of the neck.
Step 4: Interweave the sections to create a tousled look.
Step 5: With the bulk of hair at one side, create a loose, wide plait. Leave three inches at the bottom and secure with a clear band.
Step 6: Use a tail comb to gently pull a few loose strands from the front of your hair so it looks messy.
Step 7: Set in place with hair spray.
Oh if only i had hair long enough. Im stuck with a few inches on my head. I'm growing my hair for my sisters wedding in May, then cutting it short again!
Your all very lovely
G'night xxx!

I've got thick, quite long hair & I really think I should give this a go - I should definitely be try more things with my hair - I'm not all that experimental when it comes to hair styles...
Thanks for the inspiration!
