Thanks! Your hair looks to be about the same length as mine so I'm sure you can do it. I got the clip from the BSS. But Sally's and Walmart have them also.
ETA: Sorry, I didn't mean to say Walmart had these. They have a pretty metal butterfly barrette though. But that metal one could pull out your strands. The one at Sally's is the nicer brown one and it's about $5 and the basic black one like this is at the BSS for about $1.
You are soooo right on that. I tried to do it again this morning to do a tutorial and it's okay but just different of course. I'm working on that tutorial now and I'll post it as soon as I can.
Have you tried your local BSS? I thought I'd never find nice ones in there but I did. Sally's only has the brown one and it's much nicer but more expensive.
