Little Girl's Hairstyles -French Twist Braids and Bun 15-20 Min

    This hairdo was featured on Adopt A Do's blog back in December, for the HairDo of the Month. I posted about it, because I was so excited to be on her fantastic blog! I wanted to share it on mine as well, because I just really really loved how this one turned out! I called this one "Here's My Angle". (I have to apologize for the two off center pictures--I've tried redoing them and just can't get it to work, so forgive the crazies!)
    First, part off the top of wet hair into a square in center of head, making both sides on a slight angle. You’ll be making 4 sections, and this is your first 2 sections.
    Next, split this section down the middle into two sections, and clip off one section to prep for the first french twist braid. I do have a video tutorial on these, if the pictures don't make sense.
                                                           
    Take a small section at the front and divide it into two pieces.
    Cross the pieces to begin the twist.
    After initial twist, pick up and add hair from one side, just like when french braiding. Then add hair in the same manner to other side of twist, and twist the two sections around each other again.
    Continue in this manner: Add hair to both sides of twist, then twist around once.
    Finish off by twisting tightly without adding more hair, and secure with elastic. Do the same thing in next parted off section. Now prep for side section. Part down to her ear and follow the same twist pattern as I described.
    Do the same with the other side.
    This shows the four finished sections.
    Next comb the rest of the hair, including the 4 ponys, to the side, going at the same angle.
    If you have shorter hair to work with, then make it into a pony, or a pull-through pony. I did a stuffed bun. Do a pony, then on last time through, pull through halfway. Take long tail and loop around and ‘stuff’ it back into the elastic. Keep stuffing until it looks nice and messy. I don’t like the double loop look, so I just keep stuffing in until I like it. Spray well with hairspray.
    I also added some snap barrettes, since side ponys can have escapees out the back easily.
    Stick in a super darling doodad (this one is from Madibu Bows) to draw attention to your girl’s Angle!
                                          
       And there's that grin! Get ready for some positive attention!
