The French braid. Oui Oui Oo la la.

So this is like super hard to do (I'm a guy so this is all new to me). It took me forever to get it to look even kind of ok. But I'm improving! I would definitely be down with hearing any tips/suggestions from you guys though.

The bow.

I did this one a while ago. Also really difficult. But I like how this one look :)

Lil back story:

Due to an injury my girlfriend had as an infant, she can't raise her left arm higher than chest level. So braiding or fancy hair styles are pretty much impossible for her to do by herself. So I've been learning how to do some hairstyles for her. And I'm actually enjoying it.. Shhh

Cat tax

This is TJ supervising me making a sandwich.

I read : "Due to an injury my girlfriend has had an infant" ... read it 3 times finally got it right... here take my up vote.

I can't even do a French braid on myself or my kids. Good job, OP.

My father paints my my mom's toenails and fingernails for her, she's no good at it, but he's got a lot of dexterity so he doesn't mind.

I read that as 'due to an injury my girlfriend has had an infant' XD But srsly, good on you-my only tip is the hairband on the wrist thing

I'm not the only one who read it wrong? I thought it said something about and injury caused by a infant she had.

Look up fish tail braid. It's really pretty and easier than a French once you get the hang of it. Her hair is defintely long enough for it

And the Dutch braid! It's the the reverse French. Under instead of over.

One of the most romantic things is having your hair brushed by your SO. It's one of the reasons I keep mine long.

I would love it if my bf did my hair... But it's always me who does his hair x)

Where did you learn? My wife isn't handy with hairstyles, and we have a 3yr old with gorgeous hair. I want to learn!

My dream is to have someone to French braid my hair so that it doesn't get in the way while we're sleeping! :)

Your cat feeding skills suck - cat probably.

I've got a girlfriend who's asked me to help with this a bit. I've not had the luck you've had

i have female offspring, try doing this on a squirming female devil child while making pbj, and keeping the toddler from strangling the cat.

10 years ago | Likes 119 Dislikes 2

In your shoes I'd probably give offspring #1 a bowl cut and let offspring #2 kill the cat... So +1 for you sir.

I do this for my wife as well, but not because she can't, it's because I like playing with hair lol. I agree with everyone who says fishtail

Try a fishtail braid. A lot easier than it looks, and super pretty!

10 years ago | Likes 3 Dislikes 0

I've been working on it! It is so pretty! But not mine. Yet :)

You're a fucking awesome person. Best SO ever. And it looks amazing!! I'm a girl and can't even do a regular braid in my hair

I asked my SO to help me with my hair before a wedding... he had a melt down.

I am a 24 year old woman who has had waist length hair for most of my life and I cannot French braid.

Okay. This is fucking cute. Take my +1 dammit!!

I wish my hubby would learn this before we have our baby. I've heard it's nice to have your hair braided during labor.

Your awesome by the way.My husband is like this. Wish there were more of you guys in the world!

Try putting dry shampoo in it (I use dove brand it's cheap and it's awesome) also get a decent hairspray. Don't curl on freshly washed hair

I'm mostly just upset that you can french braid and i can't. And I'm a girl with french braid-able hair.

Honestly French braiding your own hair is like writing a paper about molecular genetic on your back with a piece of crayon. So real hard.

10 years ago | Likes 13 Dislikes 0

Pretty sure I can write that genetics paper. But I'll never manage more than a basic braid with my hair, which stinks because it's 3+ feet.

I know people who can practically do it in their sleep, but my normal non-french braids turn retarded halfway down. So maybe I just suck.

10 years ago | Likes 6 Dislikes 0

just keep practicing, you'll get it eventually. Or practice on a barbie doll. that's how I learned.

10 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

Or maybe French braiding is all they'll ever be good at and you're just so multi-talented that you don't have any room for more skills.
