Stunning Braids for Any Occasion from Work to Weddings

October 6, 2015 by Juliann

Stunning Braids: Step-by-Step Guide to Gorgeous Statement Hairstyles

 


Welcome to the beautiful world of braiding. Fishtails, Dutch braids, updos, curls, waves: Stunning Braids has you covered. Nothing impresses like an intricate braid. Whether you’re looking for a fun way to fix up day-old hair, a chic look for a night out on the town or a dazzling do for your wedding day, the braid is the way to go.

In this DIY guidebook, celebrity hairstylist and YouTube star Monae Everett presents easy-to-follow instructions and step-by-step photos for 25 beautiful looks. You’ll up your skills as you master a range of braiding techniques for any hair type.
From the Five-Braid Updo and the Draped Knot Braid to the Triple Mermaid Updo and the Queen Bee, these styles will turn heads and make an impression.
Monae’s celebrity clients have included a few of Hollywood’s hottest leading ladies, like Taraji P. Henson, Mariah Carey, Connie Britton, Lauren Graham and many more.
My thoughts: My daughters have long hair, and they are always giving each other gorgeous hairstyles. There are also some weddings coming up in our family, so my girls will have the chance to put some of these lovely techniques to the test!
I appreciate how the book includes full colored photos along with their easy to follow step-by-step instructions.

About This Blog

Juliann, founder of Beautiful Moms

Welcome to Beautiful Moms!

Hi! I'm Juliann, wife of 33 years to Jon, a mom to four amazing children, and a proud grandma to five precious little ones. I live in Oregon.

When I started Beautiful Moms in 2008, my goal was to connect with other moms who were also raising young children. It became a creative outlet for me to share my thoughts on motherhood, review products I loved, and work with brands that help make family life a little easier.

More importantly, I wanted moms to feel seen. It's so easy to lose ourselves in the demands of caring for everyone else and forget that our own well-being matters, too. Every mom deserves to feel beautiful, valued, and appreciated, no matter what stage of motherhood she's in.

Over the years, Beautiful Moms has evolved right along with me. My children are now all grown up, and I'm blessed to be a grandma.

Life changes so quickly

One thing that hasn't changed is my passion for encouraging other moms—it's simply expanded to include every season of motherhood—from pregnancy and baby's first years to raising teens, becoming an empty nester, navigating healthy aging, and everything in between.


Myelie, contributor at Beautiful Moms

I'm excited to have my daughter, Myelie, join the Beautiful Moms team as a new contributor. As the mom of a newborn and a busy toddler, she brings a fresh perspective on modern motherhood.

She lives in Alabama with her military husband, so she also understands the unique challenges of military life, frequent moves, and building a happy home wherever life takes you.

We are PR-friendly and love working with great companies!
