25 Everyday Hairstyles for Extremely Long Hair (Part 1)

25 Everyday Hairstyles for Extremely Long Hair (found here)

This was a great find for me. Many hairstyles that I find and love are un-accomodating for my long hair.  So, I'm excited to try a few of these! I won't be attempting all 25 today (for obvious reasons), so I've narrowed it down to just one for now. 

#4- Waterfall Braid (found here)

I'm hoping to get pretty good at this one, since it's so cute and looks simple. Here goes nothing!

**Fifteen minutes later**

That was a frustrating fifteen minutes! I seem to have difficulty remembering how to braid something when I actually have to think about it. Braiding hair, to me, is an autonomous action. This required pausing between steps and changing something. I think failed at dropping the hair at the correct points.

In all honestly, I think I gave a slightly wimpy effort on this one. It had been a long day and I was pretty tired, so I will definitely try this style again. I might even try it tomorrow before I venture on to a different 'Hairstyle for Extremely Long Hair'. Thanks for reading:)

Braid-Wrapped Pony

Next up:

 This one came without a description, but I think I'll call it the 'Braid-Wrapped Pony'. The link from the pin was simply an image-hosting site, so I won't include it in this post.There are no written directions, but the pictures seem pretty self-explanatory. 




Here's what I started with:

And here's the finished product:

A little messier than the pictures. It probably would have looked nicer if I'd had a smaller hair-tie than the one I was using. I also didn't have any cute-sy hair decorations. So I can't completely write this style off. It was very simple, it only took me about three minutes, and it has the potential to be very cute if done correctly. Maybe I'll come back to this one.
