"When are you going to cut that thing off?" my mom asks almost every weekend. "When I get married," I nonchalantly reply.

In other words, the hair will fall out before I cut it off...


Not if I have anything to say about it.
DarthArjuna's girlfriend here, total n00b, and also the owner of a padawan braid. It's kind of hidden among the rest of my hair (as both are long), but ... I have one. I guess I'm cheating a little. blush Oops.

I dressed up when Revenge came out and I grew out my own Padawan braid and kept it in for several months. Everyday I would rebraid it and it got to be a pain so I cut it off.

As for ideas on making one to clip in. This idea is just off the top of my head but usually at Sally's hair salon they have prebraided clips for women to use in their hair. If you could find those clips you could use those. Also there at Sally's his a bag of fake hair you could possibly braid and then hot glue onto a clip.

Just an idea. happy

I have a few clip-on braids left. What color is your hair?

Hey Its Lord_Absath again, some of you will probably will remember me from my other topic: Yep, i decided to grow a padawan braid. My hairs acctually getting quite long, i can have a little ponytail at the back, if only the hair beside my ear would grow faster. >.<

I was just wondering does anyone have any tips on the braid, any tips would be great.

Edit: Just found a picture of a guy with a padawan braid from the other Starwars forum And here is the link to his picture...

No pics of when you had it?

It must take a while to grow one of these things. sad

You should have kept it after you cut it off. You could have sealed the cut end and put a clip on it, in case you ever wanted to wear it again. whistling

I do still have it. I had never thought of using it like that thanks for the advice. peace

P.S. I used to take my braid out at night then redo it the next morning. If i used it as a clip on now would i have to undo it and wash it everynow and then?

I'm not sure, maybe? Maybe every once in a while instead of everyday would be better, because the hair is cut off...

It takes a while to grow one, it also depends on the speed a person's hair grows.
My braids went from behind the ears down to my waist. A little longer than Obi Wan's. I lost the right one when an over zealous cat had yanked it off. Thank God it didn't hurt. SHe was playing, and tugging on it and next thing I knew she' was walking off with it between her teeth. So I wonder if knighting by cat counts. :-D Once I managed to retrive the braid, I put it on the dresser. Don't tell the cat though. Shhhhh....:-)
