5 Min (no-braid) Fishtail Bubble Braid with Garnier Whole Blends

April 4, 2016

Hi lovelies, today I’m excited to review these products from the Garnier Whole Blends Color Care line I’ve recently started trying. I was interested in this line for two reasons: one is because I love using products with natural ingredients for my hair, and I also just recently colored my hair for the warmer months so I’m in need of color-protecting hair products. Garnier Whole Blends Color Care with Argan Oil and Cranberry Extracts gives wholesome care that protects color and is exactly what I was looking for.

GarnierWholeBlendsColorCare-19

I purchased these products from the hair care aisle at Walmart. The line consists of three products: shampoo, conditioner, and hair mask. At the time of my purchase, the hair mask wasn’t available yet. So I could only try the shampoo and conditioner. But at the time you are reading this post, the whole line including the hair mask should be available for purchase! And I am definitely coming back for the mask.

GarnierWholeBlendsColorCare-18

First off, this line smells so good to me, fruity and delicious! I know smell is subjective, and sometimes hair products could smell too overpowering. I can’t speak for everyone, but I personally think it’s refreshing and a yummy scent! The products did a wonderful job on my hair, especially the conditioner. After applying the conditioner, my hair was instantly so smooth I couldn’t stop playing with my hair in the shower lol. Overall, I think this is a great care system for your color treated hair. If you’re interested in their other systems though, you can check out the full collection of Garnier Whole Blends here.

So now, after caring for beautiful hair, wouldn’t you like a fun hair tutorial to get you ready for the warmer weather? This hairstyle takes 5 minutes to re-create, requires no braiding skills, works on all hair lengths and textures. I’m not sure what to call this though. How about “5 min (no-braid) Fishtail Bubble Braid“, if you have a better name for it, leave me a comment below!

Here are some pictures of the finished product (and my dog Lulu). Keep reading for full tutorial below!

Details:

GarnierWholeBlendsColorCare-6

1. Prep your hair. You can start with straight or curled hair, part your hair to one side. Then take a small section of hair on that parted side and tie it in a small ponytail.

GarnierWholeBlendsColorCare-7

2. Grab hair from either side of this ponytail, then tie that in the ponytail together, creating a bubble like step 3.

GarnierWholeBlendsColorCare-8

3. This is a “bubble”.

GarnierWholeBlendsColorCare-9

4. Create a hole in the middle of this bubble, and flip your hair into that hole. You can flip it inwards or outwards, just remember to do that direction consistently for all the bubbles in the braid. I did mine outwards. Then repeat steps 2–4.

GarnierWholeBlendsColorCare-10

5. This is the braid after 2 “bubbles”.

GarnierWholeBlendsColorCare-12

6. After about 2-3 bubbles, stop incorporating hair from either side. Just tie a new bubble and flip the hair into it.

GarnierWholeBlendsColorCare-13

7. Continue until your desired braid length.

GarnierWholeBlendsColorCare-11

8. Bonus variation: After step 5, keep taking hair from either side of the braid until you have no hair for this full side braid look.

Have you tried Garnier Whole Blends, if so, which system? And what did you think of this hair style?

    I’m impressed, I must say. Seldom do I come across a blog that’s both educative and amusing, and without a doubt, you’ve hit the nail on the head. The issue is something that not enough men and women are speaking intelligently about. I am very happy that I came across this in my search for something concerning this.

✨ Wood signs for my little Prince baby shower ✨:

- I ordered custom adhesive vinyl decals to be printed for large dimensions (around 3-5 ft tall). 
- Cut the shapes out, and trace the shapes on wood boards (I used 1/4” thick plywood).
- I put painter tape around the traced line to reduce wood chipping when cutting with a saw later.
- Cut the shapes on the wood boards with a jig saw.
- Brad nail leftover woods on the back to make a stand for the signs (some small pieces of 2x4 worked well). 
- Apply the adhesive back of the art decals onto the wood signs.
- Enjoy! 🩵✨🎠

☺️ What I’d do different if I do this again: 
1. The horse and carriage are ok, but I’d loved the castle to be taller.
2. Use foam boards instead of wood for lighter weight. Wood would be great if these signs will be outside where it might be windy, but for indoors event, I would do foam.

My birth story 🤰🏻: 
I went to bed at 39w3d with contractions 10 minutes apart, but had thought they were faux labor contractions (because I had Braxton Hicks and prodromal contractions most of pregnancy) so I didn’t think much of it. I woke up at 2am and called my doctor at 4am since contractions were 7 min apart (still thinking they were not real 😂). Good thing she told me to come in. I debated if I should put makeup on and decided to not - wise decision! During the car ride, 7 min apart became 5 min apart. When we arrived at hospital, I was 6cm dilated. I asked for epidural and by the time I got one, I was 8cm dilated. I started pushing shortly after, and baby came after 20 minutes of pushing.
