Inpsired by Jason, who I like to think of as the "Braidmaster," I've been wearing my hair in a french braid at work lately. Here's a pic of my hair in that style taken this morning. I did this braid myself, so it's not perfect, but I'm sure I'll get better with practice.
...since all that I've been able to accomplish so far when I try to do a french braid is get my fingers braided instead. Oh well, I'll get it sometime I'm sure. Keep working on it for sure, the hard part is getting it done the first time, from now on it's all just practice.
A few weeks ago I saw a woman that had what appeared to be something simular to a double french braid (I have no idea what it would be called) Basicly, it stared out like I do for my doubles, but the braid started at the hair line just above the temples and worked it's way back around the ears following the hair line. I thought it was very cool looking and I may give that a try sometime when I have some time to mess with it.

Your braid still looks very good, even though you may think otherwise.

That looks great. You've done a good job there. It's even and neat. That's not easy to manage in a DIY French braid even with a lot of practice. Keep up the good work!
Looks GREAT!! I can't do a French braid on my own; but, I'm pretty decent at doing a regualr braid by myself (although it took awhile).. Actually, even when other people have French braided my hair, the look for some reason doesn't particularly suit my facial features, so I've rarely worn it that way for anything longer than an hour or so.
But, here's a rare pic of me with at least a "semi-French" braid (LOL).... Enjoy!!

You've get a great braid style going there Jann!
I agree the a braid feels sooo much better than the ponytail (and looks better). I just have not ventured out in public yet and being that my wife is not a long hair fan, I don't experiment that much.

Thanks for the support Jann. My skin is pretty tough and I think she realises that I'm pretty serious and more to the point stubborn.
As for styles, I think you've got a good idea there. I'll try that.
Bruce
Damn decent braid Ken! Fantastic!
Bruce
Jann, the French braid is very handsome.
Job well done!
