Braids by onewing

Braids

Friday people day again. I took this photo a couple of weeks ago.

I just loved how this girls hair was braided. She told me that it took four hours to do the braiding.

It has gone bitterly cold here tonight and wind has whipped up. Only reached 14 degrees today and I think it has gone down to about 10 tonight.
I like seeing your people pictures again. The girl looks beautiful.

Beautiful portrait Babs full of interest, colour and light, just imagine the patience she must have to take 4 hours to do her hair after a shower, takes me about 15 seconds out of the shower to do mine, lol:)

Super capture. These types of braids are very popular here in South Africa. When I saw the picture I actually thought it was one done by a photographer that I follow who lives in Pretoria, it is so true to her style - @paulavdmerwe

@pcoulson You mean I can't interest you in getting your hair braided Peter.

What a beautiful and serene portrait. I am always astonished at the time some people are prepared to spend to get their hair right.

Lovely portrait and like the way she is holding her head!

Fantastic shot of this lovely girl Babs. Big Fave from me. Love the way she is standing & all the details of her hair, dress & jewlery. Stay warm!

Great shot and pov of this beautiful girl. I always think these braids look uncomfortable as tight as they are pulled.
June 24th, 2016  
Very pretty braids, lovely shot and friendly young lady by the sound of it.

Gorgeous capture of her braids. She looks demure in the image.

Lovely braids.

Blimey, I wouldn't spend that much time on my hair in a month - or more. But it's an interesting shot of an intricate, time-consuming beauty treatment. Liove the expression on her face. Excellent capture, mate.

I forgot to say that we all looked like Michelin Men on the golf course this morning - so many layers, plus a couple of beanies apiece, gloves etc, etc. You don't have to be mad, but it helps.

I really like how there is so much detail in the photo, yet the hair is the main subject. Terrific. Fav
June 25th, 2016  
Nice capture and pov, it's not cold here, just wet, wet, wet.
June 25th, 2016  
@happypat Thanks Pat. We have got a real cold snap here at the moment. The skies are so clear and I believe there is snow up in the hills. Although we are a long way away the cold air filters down to us.

@golftragic Thanks Marnie. I'd be bored witless if I had to sit still for four hours to have my hair done.
I can relate to the Michelin Man, that's what I looked like at the marine rescue event

@onewing Again, we're on the same page Babs. A coupla swipes with a comb and that's it for the day.
