French braids with a headband

Here is my baby girl with puppy molly. I really wanted to keep her. She was our last puppy left. But, unfortunatly my husband thinks 3 dogs are enough. She went to her forever home just this morning. :(

Okay, now for hair.... :) First part the hair across from ear to ear. I actually made the part just behind the ears.

I sectioned the top into 3 sections and french braided them straight back, stopping when I got to the back part. I didn't braid the sides.

Instead, I took the sides and secured them together underneath her hair at the nape of the neck.

I twisted the ponytail from each braid into buns by twisting the hair until it started to curl into itself then twisted it around the base of the ponytail.

I liked how this headband looked in it. The buns also help the headband from sliding off of her head.

Two types of braids

I just love this picture of her. She hasn't been in the best of moods lately(because she was sick), so seeing her smile is great.

I started off by parting her hair across from ear to ear. I put eight ponytails along the front of her head.

I rotated putting each ponytail into a regular braid, twist braid, regular braid, twist braid and so on......

I pulled it all back into a low side pony. added a bow and all done.

So for my first post I am doing something easy. Just so that I can figure this out.
Ok, so first you do a zig zag part down the middle of her head.


Next you separate the hair into 3 sections. Two on the top and one on the bottom.


Take one top section and twist it tight.

Now wrap it around itself and put a small rubber band around it.

Repeat with the other side. Let the bottom section down and you are done. I told you it was something easy. You can put a bow on each bun. I decided not to this time.
