Hair by Tamara

This kid has always had hair , she was born with a head full and never really lost it.
And it grew and grew and it was long and shiny and so pretty.....

So cute......

So what did I decide to do, cut it. Cut it all off into a stacked bob.
This picture doesn't really do it justice
That's better.

Cute and very practical cause daddy was getting her ready in the morning and this is a NO fuss haircut. But I grew very sad that I didn't have my little girl's hair to play with and so one day Carina finally took pity on me and convinced me to "let me grow it out".

So the condition was we will grow it out but you have to let me style it.
There are some really great hair blogs that leave us mother not from Utah feel completely inadequate. But I tried.....

This was all I could manage until she got some length to it. That and the twistees which I can't she seem to find a picture of which I have now found out in the hair blogging community are called Sherk Ears.
Sometimes it was a hot mess.....that took way to long.

I have really been working on my braiding abilities. Which love ya mom but I did not learn from you. She once took me to a hair salon to get a simple french braid, hey but at least she tried to make me happy.

We call this Sherk Ears with wisps.
I love that little face and I love when I find it under all that hair. I finally understand my mother was always sweeping my hair out of my face, just so I could tuck it back out from behind my ear.

I am in complete awe. And thankful for the first time I don't have a girl because there is NO WAY I could pull off those braids. Seriously Tamera, well done!!!

Keep it up, I've got another head of hair for you to play with soon. Beautiful hair but then again, she was already beautiful to begin with so the hair is just icing on the cake.
