Braided Half Up

Sorry I haven't posted in a while. I have been kind of busy:).

So anyway, first you want to separate the hair out. Probably either in half or in thirds.

Then separate the hair so there are 2 pieces hanging and pull the rest up.

Braid those and then make the ponytail with the braids.

Thats it!

Enjoy!

Braids, Buns, and Curls

        So, today Alyssa told me she wanted braids, buns, and curls in her hair. So here is a hairstyle that I made up just for her.


    This step is optional. Make two ponytails in the front of the head. (we are still growing out her bangs)

    Next, you make two french or dutch braids.

    Then, combine the two braids into a ponytail. You can also do a side ponytail if the hair is long.

    Next, take a small piece of hair from the ponytail and start a regular braid. Do about one plait and then you are going to want to start taking really small pieces of hair out of the braid on both sides.

    It should look like this now.

    Then, take that braid and bobby pin it where the two braids meet. (in that little hole)

    Make a braid like that on the side with about the same amount of hair. (That braid is called a feather braid)

   Put that braid through the loop the first braid made and bobby pin it in the hole.

    It should look like this.

    Do the same thing to the other side. It should look like this:

    Now, curl the pieces of hair that are hanging out of the braids. Her hair isn't very long so there wasn't very much curl. We just curled a few.....

Right view:

Left side:

    If the hair is long, you can do one big feather braid and wrap it around itself and bobby pin it into place and have curls coming out of a pretty bun. But her hair isn't quite long enough yet.


I hope you enjoy!
