Waterfall Braids

My lovely friend Kelly needed an updo for a dining out she was going to.  She has gorgeous hair past her shoulders, so I was flipping through some options with her -- I've always loved waterfall braids and thought they would go well with the subtle highlighting in her hair.  Mind you, I've never done waterfall braids, so before she showed up, I did a quick trial on my head to show her (and to find out if I could do it).  Took a little longer than we were hoping with curling the ends, and having to figure out how to hide the end on the fly.

You can judge the results:
My beautiful test model.....

Main side of of the braid.

Combined the braids behind her ear.  Need to
figure out how to keep both sides tight so it
looks more uniform.

Thanks to Kelly for being so patient, Rachel for keeping her date occupied while we got her all dolled up, and  her date for being so understanding.
