The "Y" Braid

This is a easy one that is also lots of fun and holds up great!

You can either start like we did here with four little ponies on the front of her head and then go back, or you can just start with two pig tails and do just one braid. Watch the pictures and then go to the bottom of the post to here how to do the braid. It is pretty simple and is just the same braid for the whole hair do.

To do the braid all you have to do is take 1/3 of each pig tail and place them together. this is one strain of the braid. Then, the sections left in each pig tail are the other two sections. Last, just take those sections a do a simple braid.

We did this with both side of her hair and then added the rest of the hair to them to make two more pig tails.

We then divided the hair from there again and did the same braid. We love this one and it is quick, easy, and cool on ha hot summer day! Also we have to give out some props to my mom aka Mimi who made this cute dress for the little miss! Thanks, Mimi!

Knot Piggies!

I am doing a happy dance! As of the time I am writing this post I have 6 (yes count them 6) Followers!! :) That is a long way from the 2 of yesterday. 

This is an attempt for a Easter hair do. Once I was done I did not think it was fancy enough for Easter, but I did think it was super cute and very easy!

I wanted to have her hair in some sort of one side like the other since I got some really cute clips to match her Easter outfit. So to me that pulled out pig tails of some sort. I started by dividing her hair in four sections. The middle part from side to side was from the front side of the ears and the one from her front to back of her head was a side ways part. I found it easier at this point to strap her hair down as to not get in my way. (Clips can go a long way) I put the back sections of her hair into the pig tails and the front section that I was not using clipped down to her head. Some times I am a little over whelmed wit all of that hair!

Next we started working with one section. I divided this section into two smaller sections and made a knot in the top section with putting the top strain pulled back to the pig tail and the other one down to the lower section of hair. If you need help with making the Knot check of my first blog post on it!

Then, I moved on to the lower section. I made a knot in this section with using the lower section of hair for the knot above. Both strains were then pulled back to the pig tail and secured.

I moved on to the next front section and did the same thing, but since this side was bigger (due to the way I parted her hair) it did three knots on this side. I just kept chaining them along till I reached the last section of hair and then put both strains back to the pony tail and secured them.

This is what the finished pig tail looks like (this is just my picture order being messed up!) Look at those cute clips from Jstyles, I just LOVE them!!!

Back onto the hair do! I divided the pig tails into two sections.

Then of course we made another Knot! (See the trend) I had the little monkey hold one side so it stayed tight.

Last I took the one of the ends and wrapped it around the other to hide all of the bands I used. I secured the end with a bobby pin hidden under the pony tail.

Here is the final product, I love it! It was so easy and held up well after a long day of playing!

Divided Pig Tails!

This one is quick and fun!

Start by doing two parts. One from the back side of ears across head. then split that evenly into two sections.

Place one section into a band at the center back side of the section.

Do the same to the other side.

Now continue the the part on the center part of the head the rest of the way down the head to divide the hair into two sections. Gather the hair of one section and the pony tail directly above it and place it in a band. I twisted the pony from above to help min. fly aways! (I do not like to use any hair spray or product on her hair) Do the same to the other side.

Now I just got some cute little clips and placed them over the bottom bands. This one held up very well and was so stinkin' easy it think pictures and all it only to 3 minutes! (This goes out to my friend Mo) Also, if you notice I do not always have to give her the Ipad to get hair done. This time she read a book!
