Hipster knot for dummies.

After a few requests, I made this how-to video in about 5 minutes last night while Dill was out playing church basketball. Putting my college degree to good use!

A couple points:

1) Why didn't I think to clean my mirror beforehand? Oh well; at least you know I'm a regular human being with a dirty bathroom mirror.

2) "Whale tail" was supposed to be "whale spout." But I made up for it with the wiggle-dance, right?

3) "Start twisting it as fast as you can" was supposed to be "as tightly as you can." Obviously, I was a little rushed by the fact the camera batteries were about to die. I don't really want you to get too crazy with your twisting, mmkay?

4) I really need a better video camera.

    Super cute and easy! Also, I recommend getting the little elastic clear bands. I watched a tutorial on another blog for a cute updo that looks similar to what you did and she used clear bands. I ordered them online and now I'm obsessed with them. You can't see how the hair is tied together and it looks really nice! I used Conair polybands!

    I have too much hair to do mine like that. I use scrunchies for mine and use 3. I break the bands like that after one use. I've wished I could do bangs but I just can't handle the hair in my face. My little girl is having the same bang issue so I've decided to let her grow them out. Oh how I envy people that do good with shorter hair.

I like feedback almost as much as I like food.
