Talking BRAIDS - Fabulous for the summer!

I recently braided my hair (extensions) and thought I'd post some photos. This took me 2 days (actual 24 hours) worth of work! I did not work out for those days as I considered THIS my workout!

This will HOPEFULLY last for 2 months. I think its a great addition to my new slender and athletic physique...and a wonderful way to "reinvent" myself at age 44! Watch out BO DEREK!

You can do that yourself???? I had no idea. Good thing you have those power arms! You kinda remind me of Tracy Chapman. You look very badass and I love it!

Out of "brokeness"...comes "patience"! This little "DO" costs about $200 to get it done! I also did my daughter's hair, so I saved $400, and can be lazy with my hair all summer...WOOT!

Thanks ladies...don't even want to think about having to take them out!

I always thought she was beautiful. She had no fashion sense when it came to clothes and makeup but look at her face, the cheekbones, the eyes, beauty. It was meant as a compliment LOL
