All good things come to an end.

Happy New Year everyone, it's now 2015!

Can't believe how fast this year went! I first started this blog to document the hairstyles what I do to myself over the year 2014 but during the year I have started to feature more and more hair styles what I have made for other people and taking baby steps forward professional hair styling.

I have learned that hair is my passion, talent and hobby and I want to continue getting better at styling it. And I've also learned new things this year, I couldn't braid almost at all in the start of 2014 and lately braiding is all I've been doing!

Because of braiding I also discovered Instagram and the braiding community there, that has been such an inspiration to me! I've gotten so much feedback and encouragement there! As this blog was just a project for the year 2014 this will be my last post, I won't be updating the blog anymore. From now on you can find me in instagram under username 365goodhairdays.

Thank you all, my lovely readers, I had a great hair year 2014!

Holiday hair

Few days ago our family came back from almost two week holiday. It was just as I expected, unfortunately I was not able to post anything on the road, I needed to wait until now. In this post I want to post all the hairs I photographed during those two weeks.

First of all when we left I had this knotted braid. I loved how well it lasted!

Then I wanted to try Cute Girls Hairstyles French Backs and this was result.

I took quite a few ribbons with me since I wanted to rehearse ribbon braids but in the end I only managed to do these two styles, First one is four strand dutch braid on myself and the second just a dutch braid ending in a ribbon bow.

This was my Christmas Eve style, I struggled with this one since I wanted to have loop braid both side of my head and somehow I couldn't make it work. In the end I got some sort of up do out of it!

While traveling I got my self two new toys, a hair crimper,which makes a very small wave to the hair to make it look more full and also a mannequin head. Of course I tried out both of the immediately!

This is how my hair looked crimped.

And this is how my mannequin head looks like, I made loop dutch braid to it just to try out the hair. It felt more like real hair than I thought!

Little ones

We went to a birthday party Saturday and this four year old young lady let me braid her hair. I went for a style I saw that day in Instagram, heart with a ponytail inside and two dutch braids from both sides to one simple braid. I was told she loved being photographed!

And then, for the first time, I managed to do some sort of hair style for my own little daughter. She is now 13 months old so I hope soon I get to do all sorts of braids for her! I did a small dutch braid on the front and secured it with a pin. Then she has two pig tails. So cute. Lasted maybe ten minutes.

Family affair

Today was the last kind of busy day hairwise, tomorrow me and the rest of the family fly to Netherlands and we don't return until end of the year! I hopefully have a chance to post something also from abroad but I can't promise you anything. 

Today's up do is a messy side bun with one pancaked dutch braid. My friend had her family photos taken and she wanted to have a simple style for it.

Space calling

Hi, it's Monday, I have a non heat curls day. Today I chose to do them with foil. I was thinking that i don't want to have so curly curls so I did less sections than earlier. Guess what happened?

I got myself an afro!

I wanted to have my hair open (even though it's raining) with a head band so I still went for it. It took some hair spray and gel to make it work!

My favorite braid

The pull through braid just is my favorite. I had a change to do this to my friend today.

Slide up and down

These two are my hairstyles from today. When I opened Instagram frist time in the morning I saw a hairstyle from @girlzhaircreations and fell in love with it. This one is inspired by it. In my version the the hair parts, which make the curve, are done with two different hair parts as my hair is too short for the original creation. Rest of my hair is into ponytail, in original pic it was in curls. I really liked this one!

I didn't have time to do the up do above so in the morning I had something else to spice up my pony tail, a four strand slide up braid. It was my first try so it's not anything near perfect, nice looking anyway.
