Up-do with braided headband

This was my quick formal dinner hair on the cruise...

1. It was still slightly damp, so that made it easy to work with...

2. I made a low ponytail and braided a piece of it.

3. With all the hair, except the braid, I made many finger/fake curls.

4. Once the hair was all 'curled,' I secured the braid around with bobby-pins in the braid going horizonally.
