Hawaiian Hair

It was Hawaiian Day at school a couple weeks ago and we had to come up with the perfect hairstyle. Every time I think of hula dancers I picture flowers in their hair. We found the perfect flower, whipped her hair into a fast Side Pony and she was all set for her fun day.

Kitty Cat Ears

My princess loves to make-believe. She came up to me the other day and said that she wanted kitty cat ears. I'm sure she meant just the costume ears but I thought it would be fun to experiment with her hair. It's amazing what a couple pipe cleaners can do! We just attached the pipe cleaners to her elastics, braided around them and bent them into shape. She wore them all day long and had a ball.

Square Knots Into Corkscrews

I absolutely love doing Square Knots in my princesses hair. I love the effect that it gives and they're so simple and fast. Here we've sectioned off her hair and done of row of knots right down the middle of her head. (Don't mind the crooked parts.) I separated each knot into two pieces and fed those pieces into her ponytails.The ponytails are each made up of three Corkscrew Twists with flip-up ends. It's fun to do this with wet hair and then see what the twists look like the next day when you take them out.

Ribbon Accent

We love to add ribbon whenever we have the time. You can see that we just folded the ribbon into her elastic on her Pull Through and then incorporated them into her braids. We did an Uneven Braid and used the ribbon as one of the 3 strands. We made sure that the ribbon strand of her braid was facing front instead of hiding behind the braid.

Woven Pull-Throughs

The picture is actually meant to show the Pull-Throughs on top of her head, but you can enjoy the glamorous corn teeth as well. :)

Field Day Hair

The Princess wanted her hair to be pulled back for Field Day. She's got Puffy Braids on top leading down to Braid Loops on the bottom. The hair held up great and lasted through the whole day.

How It All Started...

This blog has been created completely for my little princess.

Here's the story:

A little while ago her school had their "Nevada Read Week" and one of their featured days was "Dress As Your Favorite Dr. Seuss Character Day". My little princess had her heart set on being Cindy Lou Who. I was a bit nervous because I had no idea how to even approach that hair. This is what we came up with. There is actually a cup underneath there holding all that hair up! She was very excited to find out that she and her hair had been featured over at "Adopt a Do". She said she was "famous" and has been asking me to get more of her hair pictures on the computer. (She's a diva princess and LOVES attention.) :) Personally, I'm just excited that she's letting me do all these fun styles on her so, whatever works right! I'll try to keep updated but feel free to borrow any ideas you like or share any ideas you think I'd like. I'm not a professional by any means but it's fun to have something that my princess and I both enjoy doing together!
