So awhile back I got what stuck me as a strange request. Sometimes you guys tweet me, facebook, or email me requests/questions. Normally I totally know what to say but this problem threw me for a loop.

“hi I love your blog and had a question. I’m going back to school soon and grew out my bangs. I feel like my forehead looks bigger and was wondering if you had a hairstyle that didn’t pull my hair tight. Thanks!” – Tammi

Personally, I don’t worry about my forehead much. I had bangs as a kid & totally hated them. Too much work when I just want to throw my hair up too! I think in 10 years when I start really noticing my wrinkles I’ll probably try them out but for now, no thanks. However, my mom has always had bangs. I decided to do something that brings the hair forward instead of pulling it taunt. What do you think?

This is a basic braid that I started behind my ear & pulled hair to the front somewhat loosely. I came upon this by sheer accident so sorry my part isn’t straight! I really tried! I teased my hair a bit to make the difference look more dramatic. I thought it looked nicer & I got several compliments from strangers which is always nice.

Does anyone else have ideas to help Tammi? I’d love to see/hear them! I know how important a good hair day can be!
