Unless you have lived under a rock over the last two weeks, you’ve heard of The Hunger Games. No it’s not another name for the Biggest Loser. The movie is based on the book of the same name, and like Twilight, they became an instant success which has now turned into a monster at the theatres. Everybody loves the heroine Katniss. If you plan on dressing like her for the movie, your ensemble would not be complete without the Dutch braid. It’s very pretty and according to the vid, easy to do. We are not so sure. Try it out and send us a photo! ~ Forbes & Marshall

Just in case you were wondering, Wilson is the name of Susan Jacks kidney. All of her brothers were tested when she needed a transplant and it turns out that Billy was a perfect match.
