Short Braided Ponytail for Long Hair

Hey everybody!

I tried another version of a short ponytail for long hair.  This time I put my hair into a smooth low ponytail.  Then I braided my hair into two English braids.  I looped these braids up several times until they looked like a short ponytail and then held them in place with two hairclips.  Some pictures:

Thanks so much for viewing!  I hope you have a great day :-)

Short Ponytail for Long Hair

Hey everybody,

Thank you so much for helping us reach 50,000 page views!!  How exciting!  I appreciate everyone who subscribes, views, and comments~ how fun to get to share all these braids and hairstyles with you.

Here are some pictures of a new favorite look~ I call it a short ponytail for long hair.  First I combed my hair back smooth and put it into a low ponytail.  I wrapped the top section of my ponytail around my fingers into one big loop, and held this first loop in place with a hairclip.  Then I made a second loop and clipped it in place on the right.  I took the remaining section of hair and pulled it up and over and formed a third loop on the left.  I held this last loop in place with another hairclip and was good to go!  The best part about this look~ it lasts all day long and it really frames your face from the front.

Later that day...my Long Bob became a High Bun

Here are more pictures taken a few hours after my "lob" shown in this earlier post.  We are on vacation and got to spend a few days riding roller coasters~ my long bob didn't last long, so I had to switch to this high braided bun.  I just left my hair in the high ponytail but braided it into two long English braids.  Then I wrapped them into this high braided bun (if the pictures look a little grainy, it's because they were taken with my cell phone camera :-)  Actually, this turned out to be a great roller-coaster hairdo!  I have more to post later of my sister's look~ so be sure to check back or subscribe via email.  Thanks!

"Lob" (Long Bob) for Super Long Hair

Hey everybody!

Yesterday I washed my hair in the morning and braided it into two braided buns while it was still wet.  Today when I took the braids out, my hair had a nice beach-wave look.  So instead of combing all that texture out, I put it up into a high ponytail.  Then I folded my hair up and over, into a "short" ponytail.

Later this morning when I was looking at Fox News, I noticed that this look is very similar to a "lob" which, according to the article, is Hollywood's hottest haircut for Spring 2013.  I guess I was on the cutting edge of fashion without realizing it :-)

So...after that long intro, here are some pictures of my version of a "lob" hairstyle:

Thanks for looking!  If you would like to read the article, here is the link: The Lob: Hollywood's Hottest Haircut
