Maiden "braid" tutorial

As a natural there are times when the last thing I want to do is spend hours doing my hair. I like to take breaks during this time and do styles that will last all week but take minimal time to install.

Enter the flat twist, think Tracee Ellis Ross or if you love The Color Purple like I do Nettie from the movie.

While rocking a version of the style I saw on You Tube I was told by a very handsome man I know that I looked like a maiden. So I named the style described in the video the Maiden Braid, though it is in actuality a flat twist. Try it out on those "I want my hair protected but I don't want to spend money, or hours on getting it done" days.

Tell me what you think of the style.....
