French braid with a little cover

She had just got done crying in this pic, so her eyes are puffy.

First I started out parting the hair in 2 different sections. The first one from the front of one ear to the front of the other. The second part is from just a little behind one ear to just behind the other ear.

Take the middle section and french braid it all the way across.

Now, put the front section into 4 ponytails. These are the "little cover".

Pull the front ponytails back into one low ponytail in the back. Add your accessory, and you are done! Very easy.

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.

Hairdo for short or long hair

Today Julia had a friend over to play. I had the chance to do short hair, so I took it!!
This is basically the same hair do just a little modified for the length of each girls' hair. Also, there is a giveaway at Oh So Girly. Please mention That I sent you.

This, of course, is Julia. First part the hair straight down the middle. Start on one side at the bottom. Make puff braids going up her head. I made 3 sections. Repeat on other side.

Now take the rest of the hair and make a horizontal part ending at the temple area on each side. Put the back sections into ponytails, remember to bring your puff braid into each ponytail.

Take the front sections and cross them into the ponytails on the opposite side.

This is how the crossed over hair will look.

Put each ponytail into a messy bun.

Here's the back. Okay, now for the short hair.

Do puffy braids up the back, same as above on Julia. Instead of crossing over the front pull all hair into the ponytail on it's own side. Rat the ponytails and hairspray.

They had a lot of fun showing off their hair together.

My little ballerina

I have had some e- mails asking me what products I use. Since the only store around is Wal mart (a very small one), I don't have a very big selection. These are what I found work best on my daughter's hair.

She wanted to be a ballerina today.

I first parted the hair in a kind of zig zag part. Then I put the top into puff braids.

I pulled the rest into a side pony. Added a bow, and almost done.

If she had straight hair, I would have curled the ponytail, but since her hair is curly it worked well here. Add the bow. Very pretty and simple.

an easy tiara do

She is still in her pajamas, but we did get dressed right after this.

First make a part down the middle of her head. Then make another part horizontally kindof far back on her head.

Now put another part right down the middle of the part you already sectioned off. Separate the back section into two again. Now pin back all sections besides the back 2 on each side.

Make 4 small ponies on the right side. Take the ponies and separate into 2 pieces each. Make another row of 3 ponytails, Adding the top ponies to them.

Repeat with the other side.

Now bring all of the hair back into 2 messy buns. Sorry about the part. She was having a wierd day, she just wanted to be moving I guess! LOL!

Here is the side view with the hair pulled back into the messy buns. Add bows. I really couldn't figure out how to explain this so I hope with the pictures too, you will understand it.

2 braided hearts for valentines day.

My house is very busy this week. Even more than usual. In my house we have 3 kids, my husband and I, my mother, 3 dogs and 4 cats. Plus my husband has 2 friends that think they live here. I threw this one together because I had very little time.

Firtst part the hair straight down the middle. Put into 2 pigtails.

Put each pigtail into 3 braids. Don't put the elastic at the ends too tight, you will be taking them out again soon.

Take the two outside braids and secure them at the top with an elastic. Shape them into a heart shape. Secure them with an elastic at the bottom, putting the 3rd braid right down the middle.

Now, take out the elastics holding the bottom of the braids. Her hair is still wet in this picture, but when it dried I curled the bottoms. You could even weave ribbon threw the braids for a little something extra.

knotted ponytails

This is something easy, quick, and fun. I first put her hair in 2 pigtails. I made them a little high up on the head and toward the outside of the head.

I then put a knot in each ponytail. Going from the under side of the ponytail.

I pulled the pontails tight and spread them to cover the elastic. I added bows. I got these bows from www.bows4my4girls.com.

She has a little rash on her cheeks from the cold. We still have about 2 1/2 feet of snow on the ground. It melted a lot. We did have around 6 feet!!!! In this next picture she looks like she doesn't have any front teeth (she does) LOL!

Cute headband style

Ok, I saw this one on Babes in Hairland and I loved it. I just had to try it. So, I thought I would share it with you. First I made a part right down the middle. Then another one horizontally. I made 4 ponytails in the front.

Next, I put the headband on over the horizontal part. Make sure to cover up the part with the headband, so the part is not visible.

I took small pieces of hair from behind the headband and connected the front ponytails to it. Make sure to connect it as close to the headband as possible. Only the middle two ponytails are seperated into two pieces.

I tied the Scarf of the headband underneath her hair. I let the back of her hair down and put it into a low ponytail.

Then wrap the scarf around the ponytail and tie a knot to make a bow.

Here is a front view.

Here is a side view. See what I mean, Isn't it so cute? I just loved it when I saw it.
