EASTER

I have had Easter on my mind lately seeing that Easter is just around the corner. & I thought I would share what I was thinking would be some pretty hairdos. When I think of Easter sunday I think of beautiful Easter dresses with pretty hair in soft curls, flowers & headbands. I'm going off of what I posted last time because I had so many comments on it - I thought we could do another variation of the same style.


Part your headband just about 1/2 to 3/4 of the head & pull the rest into a pony tail. Split the pony in half & hold the bottom with a clip. That is what is going to be curled, the top is what is going into the braid.

Start braiding your headband just like the post below, bringing side pieces from the pony & the headband pulled out. I tried to keep the braid right over the part to keep an even line for me.

I braided the hair down & added that to the pony, undoing the elastic & braid so it's now part of the pony tail.

Curl your pony tail & spray to hold the curls.

Pin the curls around the head & leaving some down so that they're not all up. I added some small silk flowers that she got from when we went to Disneyland & they put roses in her hair.

& that's all there is to it!! Now we have a different variation of the braided pony but it looks more like a updo.

Side Braid

First french braid across the front of her hair as shown below.



Next pull the rest of her hair to a side ponytail (on the side where the braid has ended)

Once the hair is in a ponytail make a messy bun of your choice.

Since my daughter is such a girl we added a flower to match her outfit. The flower is from Bybee Bows purchased at http://www.mom-stuff.com/

Here is a side shot of the finished product.

around the head headband

This was a fun one for us to do. It's a little bit different, but it was nice because her hair stay out of her face all day & it looks like a sweet little braided band.
Start by parting a circle around the head, leaving out a headband under the circle.

This is kind of hard to tell in the picture, but you start french braiding from the bottom-middle. Grab your three strands to start with from the hair that is out of the pony. Then as you braid, you bring small pieces from the pony tail from the one side & small pieces from the hair left out from the other side. You can either do inside out french braid or a regular french braid. I actually started with a regular french braid & didn't get very far, I felt it was hard to position my hands, so I stopped very quickly & redid with the inside-out french braid & it was very fast & much easier for my hands to hold the hair. But whatever works best for you - try it!

One you've gone all the way around the head, finish braiding to the end of the hair.

I bobby pinned that little tail so you didn't see the end or the beginning & plus - doesn't that just look like a mullet hanging out:) So definitely pin the end of the braid up so it's not visible.

I added a bow where I had pinned it so you didn't see any of that at all.

Puffy Hairstyle

For your little ones who don't have much hair this is fun and looks really cute. Especially if your little one has a spunky attitude.


First part the top of her hair and pull it to one side in a ponytail as shown below.

Then part and pull the second one together with the first pony tail.




Now do the same for the third.

Here is the finished product.

Hair Extensions. Hairstyles Means.

A revolutionary hair extensions, with no chemicals, no glue, no heat, no damage to hair or scalp, just 100% natural human hair extensions. Available in a range of colours. Sounds like perfect beauty means, but there are some hidden dangers you have to know about before applying hair extensions.

What health risks can we face applying these must-haves?

If hair extensions are put in for the first time they are usually quite tight and they can be quite painful for the first few days.

If your scalp is numb, then sleeping on about two hundreds little lumps on your head may be ok - but you could be unlucky.

Daily hairdressing combined with hair being pulled around as you sleep on your pillow, can make it to come out.

When the hair is wet, its weight increases, and if hair is coloured it is even more absorbent. That contributes to greater pressure on the hair follicles. So, if you do notice hair loss from your extensions, get them removed immediately. Your hair can re-grow, but it doesn’t always and if it’s pulled out repeatedly it will stop growing.

Here are some specific tips to help you care for your extensions:

• Use a special brush (often a loop brush) made just for extensions, so you don't damage the new hair or the bond.
• Human hair extensions can be treated as real hair, but more gently.
• A gentle shampoo is recommended, and use cool water to help minimize tangles.
• Sleep with your hair in a ponytail or braid to avoid bed-head and knots.
• A light conditioner will help reduce tangling and keep your new hair supple.

Ribbon Fun

For everyone who loves ribbons here is a fun idea to put a little spunk in your girls hair style.

I only have the finished product on this one, so I will explain how it is done.

First pull up the front bangs in an elastic. Then pull it through to make the twist. Tie the ribbon of your choice around the elastic. Part the remaining hair down the middle. Split the hair in the elastic into 2 pieces one for each side. To get the ribbon look just wrap it around one section of hair and put into a pigtail. Do the same for the other side. Then make a messy bun of your choice.

Here We Go!

Everyone Get READY SET HAIR!

I love to do my girls hair even though my youngest doesn't have much hair it is fun to share ideas on how to make them look cute. All girls have different kinds, types, and lengths of hair. That is the purpose of this blog is to share ideas and give ideas on how to do girls hair of all kinds. I get really tired of doing my girls hair the same way each weeks so lets get creative. Everyone get ready because here we go. Get ready for my next post that will follow is the first of many cute hairstyles.

an option for ribbon in the hair

I used a bobby pin because I was in a rush. But if I would have taken the time - I would have grabbed a safety pin & pinned it to the ribbon - which I recommend. If you are going to use a bobby pin like I have in this picture, just slide the ribbon thru & make sure that it's thru enough to not come out.
I pulled her hair up & curled it & then pinned it up, which is not very convenient for putting a bow into it. But I love the look of a bow, it always finishes her hair off. So I thought this would be a cute way of adding your bow: Start weaving with the bobby pin or safety pin.

Make your way all around the pony or what hair you have pulled up.

I started at the bottom so it finished at the bottom & met together. I tied the hair in a bow where you could see it hanging out of her hair. Try it next time you are having a hard time placing a bow in a pinned up do.

Natural 'Do: Locs & Twists

Twist Downs

This was super easy!! It's like doing a french braid but twisting instead. You just twist your piece while adding the pieces from the sides to make your way down.
Start at the top with on section, start twisting.

Start adding pieces from the sides to match along the same way of the twist.

Okay - for some reason - this is sideways even though I flipped it. But I don't have time to mess around with it right now so next time I'll make sure it's the right way:) Do both sides & when you get to the end of one, I added an elastic & then pinned it so the twist wouldn't let loose. Do the other side the same & bring them together with an elastic of course taking out the pins from holding it previously.

Again, another flopped picture, but you get the idea. Add a bow to the end & spray to hold & you are finished!!
