It's been a while since we have posted any new hair dos. Things have been pretty crazy around here.
Here's our "christmas tree". We did webbing in the shape of a christmas tree, using yellow for the star on top, green for the tree, then a big brown pony for the trunk.
Here is a church do. I finally attempted inside out braids. It took me a while to get it but they are super fun because they stand out so much. I just wove some ribbon through. Pretty simple :)

Primary Program 'Do

This 'do was so elegant. We loved it! First I sectioned off a large circle in the middle of her head and put in a ponytail. Then did princess twists down each side, bringing them together in a ponytail at the bottom.
For the middle pony, I sectioned off a couple of small pieces and twisted them. With the remaining hair, I rolled them into giant curls and cross-pinned them (making an "X" with your bobby pins) into a bun.
Lastly, I weaved the twisted pieces throughout the bun. It adds a little something extra.
HERE is where I got the start for my idea.

The Fancy Mullet

This is one of our own creations. (Someone may have done it somewhere else but we haven't seen it anywhere.)

I separated the hair into four sections. Twisted the top two and combined them into a ponytail and flipped under. Then did the same with the bottom two sections. It kind of looks like a fancy mullet but it's still cute. I ended up putting a bow in the top pony. With a little hairspray, it stayed all day and through the night.


Another church 'do

This one is so pretty (and simple). I loved it. Instructions and credits are HERE.

All laced up

Today is an original (sort of). I have seen this upward weaving on a couple of sites and added my own twist. I sectioned off a top piece from ear to ear and tied it off to use later.
Then I laced up from the bottom (I did 3 rows). Then left it in pigtails.

Then I took the top section and separated it into 4 pieces. I crossed the two middle pieces and added them to the ponytail (don't attach it yet, just hold it). Then take remaining side pieces and add them in. I know it sounds confusing. I hope this picture gives you a better idea of what I did.
This picture gives you and idea of how I added in the top sections.


It looks complicated but it actually only took about 10 minutes and was pretty easy. I love it because it keeps M's hair out of her face.

Ballet Bun week 2

It's the same as the previous ballet buns but I added a small braid down the middle. Just take a small section of hair in the front, braid it down, and add it to your bun. Simple!

Ribbons!!!

I LOVE this one. It is so fun and you can use some super cute ribbons! It's funny because this one looks very 4th of July, even though it's almost October :) Credits and instructions are HERE.
I braided the remaining ribbon into the hair did some braided piggies. Super cute!
