Braids to Side Bun

    Start on the side of her head and make 2 small french braids back to her ears.

    Then pull all the hair into a side low ponytail on the opposite side of the braids.


    Then make a messy bun with the hair in the ponytail. I use bobby pins to place the hair where I want it to be.

    First make a small ponytail across the front of her head and pull it through itself to make the twist. Then make 2 small ponytails on each side and pull them through themselves.
    Pull the side pony's and make one more small ponytail using all the other small ponytails. Then pull it through itself.

Curly Hair

    This one is similar to the last post the only difference is instead of crimping the hair we used made large ringlets.

Old Holiday Hair


    This is an old picture but since I haven't been doing this hair blog for a long time but I have been doing hair for awhile I found some old hairstyles. My daughter likes to pick her own hairstyles sometimes and this is one of hers.
    She has a small french braid across the top of her head and then we used YES an old crimping iron to do the rest of her hair.

Little Girl's Hairstyles -Christmas Puffy Braids 5-7 min


    OK, there's really nothing Christmasy about these puffy braids. But Christmas is right around the corner, we had to do some hair, and I was lucky enough to get a whole slew of Christmas bows this year from some really talented bow makers. SO, to show them off properly, here's some puffy braids to go with one of them. This little cutie is from FlowerzInHerHair. Amy, the talented one, has a great variety of hair accessories, so go and check her out, and I'll be putting up some more of her darling stuff in the coming weeks. Now onto the hair!
    For these ultra simple and pretty darn quick puffy braids, I parted off the hair up front into four sections, starting off from a middle part. I go about halfway to her ears on the first four, then the rest of the way to the ears with the 3 sections behind. So basically, you are making 4 sections in the front, and then dividing them into 3 sections behind.
    You can continue this pattern farther down her head, making the three go into two sections, etc. I will be posting another puffy braid that goes farther down the head soon to give you an idea. This is a fast, before school hairdo, that you can finish off with a ponytail, like I did here. You can also split the back into two ponys and braid them, or do a stuffed bun. It's a great way to get the front hair back and out of the way, and works great on just about any length of hair, and works especially well if you are growing out bangs.
    Have a most wonderful Christmas my friends! I am grateful to be able to share my fun hobby with all of you, and appreciate your comments and support. I hope we can all reach out to those around us and make them all feel the love of our Heavenly Father, for that is truly the reason we are here. If you have any special Christmas stories you'd like to share, I would be happy to post them on here.Scroll down and see the fun Santa activities, and have a wonderful week!

Fun Holiday Hair

    I first started by making ringlets all over her heads. I purchased a really neat curling iron a while ago that had groves in it that makes perfect ringlets for little girls hair.
    Next make a small french braid across the front of her head.
    Take half of her hair and pull up into a ponytail. I then used a small elastic to make somewhat of a messy bun. I pulled out some of the ringlets and used bobby pins to keep the ringlets perfect.
    Then I took a red ribbon and attached a safety pin to the end. I then went in and out of her ringlets to give the swirl look.

Little Girl's Hairstyles -Braiding Variety 10-15 min

    We needed some variety in our braids today, so we tried a couple of different ones. I actually saw this idea on another fabulous hair blog......back in the day when I was avidly searching for new hairstyles to try out! I found this one on Girls Hairdos. In the meantime, please enjoy this one. We rather like it.

    I parted her hair in the front on the side, and then down the middle in the back, like this. This helps keep the braids a little more even. Then I put her hair up in two high ponys. I did wet the ponys thoroughly and put a little Gen. Paul Mitchell gel in.
    I split the hair into three even sections. I did a regular (backwards) braid on one section. Next I did a fish tail braid, stopping about a third of the way down, and put in an elastic (I was in a hurry!), and then put in another elastic another third of the way down, and finished fish tailing the last third of the braid.
    For the last section, I did a twist braid. I have videos on how to do a twist braid and a fish tail braid, under my Video Tutorials.
    I sprayed each braid topside and underside with hairspray, and stuck in some cute bows!!
    Just a note: She got a lot of compliments this day when we were out and about!

Toddler Rolls

    As most of you with toddlers know pictures are not always easy to get so this is the only one we got of this cute hairstyle.
    Her hair is in 4 small rolls that go back to the crown of her head. The rest of her hair I rolled brushed under to give her a little bit more volume.

French Braid to Side Pony

    Make a small french braid across the front top of her head. Make sure the braid goes all the way down. This is similar to a previous post but instead of a regular ponytail do a far side ponytail.

    I had another blogger tell me about wrapping the braid around the ponytail so I have done that to her side ponytail. (thank you to this blogger for the idea)

    We love flowers and right now she always wants the same flower so we added this flower for fun.

Shakira Hair



    Pick one side of her head and make 2 small french braids along the top of the ear.


    We curled her hair to make the big loose curls with a straightening iron. Or you can use a
    1 1/2 in curling iron. (I apologize for the pictures my husband needed my good camera and left me with a really old one)
