New Hairdos for the New Year


A little background information: 1) My school year, in South Africa, begins in January, so as well as this time of year being the beginning of the whole year, it's also the beginning of the new school year for me.
                                                    2) I attend a private school, and as well as being required to wear a uniform, I'm also required to keep my hair pulled back and preferably up.

So, with these facts in mind, I've recently been looking for some new hairdos.  I have medium length, thick, very straight (and frequently slippery!) hair, so finding hairdos that work well can be difficult.  Below are pictures of my hair, as well as links to the tutorials I used online.

*Note: If your hair is still damp, this one may be a bit difficult.  If you have the time, dry your hair completely, or, if your like me and can't be bothered, attempt it anyways!
