Sock Bun & Braid

I'm getting closer

Korean Bun! I'M LEARNING

Not perfect but it's my very first Korean Bun.  I did a small lace braid coming from the front on each side.  My hair is actually wrapped around a dress sock tutorial found here.  

Learning Braided Updos

Hello learning how to braid!  Except for the basic 3 strand braid, I have never learned how to braid.  This past week I've almost conquered the head band lace braid.  My neck is literally in so much pain from learning that I've been living off pain killers for the past two days.

I have a wedding to be in at the end of the summer, and my goal is to put my hair in a beautiful braided updo myself.  I scoured online for my favorite hair tutorials.  My goal is to master all 10 of these this summer.
