Today's style is a classic - takes a bit of time, but then, I have the time at this early stage in the month. (Not panicking about spending time on my hair when I get busy again!!)

Double french braids (one either side of my head) make for skinnier and more manageable plaits. It's taken me 15 kirby grips to keep the plaits wound round my head without any end sticking out. Looks very neat and tidy - a bit french. Overall, a favourite and worth the effort.

It begins

So it's a new year... almost.

And I've set myself a challenge. Every day for the next month I'm going to do something with my hair. Everybody is commenting on how long it's become, and I'm really struggling to join with their enthusiasm as my hair won't do the styles I used to casually create. 

Here's a pre-show picture, let the creativity commence!
