For most of us, doing our daughter’s hair is a daily battle. Getting brush through locks and up into a simple pony tail take serious effort.
Which is why checking out Melbourne woman, Shelley Gifford’s Instagram account, Pretty Little Braids, may well stop you in your tracks.
For example;
Shelley, mum to Grace, 6 and George, 4 says braids and plaits have always interested her. “Growing up I always loved braiding, I would take any opportunity to braid my family and friends’ hair. Back then, I only ever knew how to French and Dutch braid, I wasn’t aware that so many other braids existed.”

Very complex and no doubt highly skilled, but I have to ask from an ignorant guys point of view, some of the braids looks so tight, isn't this incredibly painful on your scalp?
I could actually feel myself getting a free facelift just looking at some of the pics.
Yeah, it really can be painful. Sometimes not at the moment that it's done, but it can get worse and worse as the day goes on. Even then you sometimes don't notice it, but then you take your hair out at the end of the day and realise with a huge sigh of relief how dreadfully uncomfortable it was.
Her skill is impressive but these all look so painful!
