Is Braided Hair in Fashion?
For the less daring, having your hair in a braid was big in the 80s. Why not consider a french braid for your 80s party, or even, for almost any occasion? I would love to be able to braid my own hair, however, it seems to take practice, and my arms get too tired. Give it a go though, or ask a girlfriend, if they would mind braiding your hair.
