Reply #20 - May 7^th, 2003 at 2:33pm I just found a trick - usually when I braid, I hold one piece of the three with my neck while I braid the other two. If you hold all three pieces - yes it's tricky if you're not used to it - you get a tighter, more perfect braid. !

I just wanted to say thank you for the tip about the easy braider. I have -never- been able to french braid hair let alone try to french braid my own hair. I just didn't have a knack for it and my hair would always tangle on itself.

It took a long time to ship, but it is a handy tool. I wore my hair french braided to work today, and I was quite proud of it, heh.

I have no desire to learn to french braid without it. Tongue

Reply #22 - Dec 7^th, 2003 at 8:53pm Larissa; congratulations on mastering the french braid. You may find that after using the Easy Braider for a while, that you will be able to french braid without it. In the meantime, enjoy your new hairstyle! And welcome!

What is an Easy Braider? Germany is absolutely underdeveloped concerning hair toys. No hairsticks, no beautiful ponytail holders with austrian crystals (and hairboutique.com only ships with UPS- 30 $ shipping fees Shocked

), no bunjees, no helpful things to updo hair easily, no really extraordinary hair jewelery- I have to move to the U.S. Cry

;) I am such a good customer because these sticks are the best accessoire I ever found. Easy to use and so much pretty I want to have a glass cupboard (funny word I hope my dictionary didn´t fool me ;)) to put them all in ;D
Cool, may I have a room overlooking the garden? And may I take my horse with me ;)?

Reply #26 - Dec 8^th, 2003 at 9:06pm Cupboard works, but "cabinet" is probably the word you were looking for ;) Yes, you may have a room over the garden and yes, by all means bring the horse! He and the greyhounds can run together ;) Ummm... do you clean by any chance? LOL!

Reply #28 - Dec 9^th, 2003 at 1:42pm To answer your question, the braiding tool referred to is called Braidini. It is a plastic tool that helps hold the hair in place while you braid. Here is a link http://www.braidini.com/
