this girlie of mine

is FIVE years old today!! & since she is the main attraction of my blog & sits so patiently while I do her hair I had to say HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!

Love her to death!! & love that she will not leave the house without her hair done. All girlie girl. She's the one who has made this blog possible. All thanks to her.
I may be a little bias but isn't she just so beautiful?

Inspired by Lady Gaga

I started by making a poof in the front of her hair.  (We did this because she is still trying to grow out her bangs)

Make a french braid from the front near her ear all the way to the center back of her head.  Do this on both sides as shown below.  *Leave the poof and a small amount of hair below the poof out of the braid for now.*

Below shows both the french braids secured together and the hair left out. 

Now combine all the hair into a ponytail shown below.

Seperate the ponytail into 2 sections of hair.  Take the right side and make a loop leaving the ends to hang down towards her neck we will use this hair to wrap the center.

Do the same thing to the left side.  I secured the loop with bobby pins.

Now take the ends from the loops and pull them up around the center of the 2 loops.  Secure these with bobby pins as well.

Roll Crazy

I started with the front roll first and if your daughter is like mine I had to hold it with elastics to make sure the roll was tight.  *Note* I did the rolls similar to a braid but with 2 strands adding a new piece of hair as you roll.  Make 2 more rolls parallel to the first. 

Do the same thing to the other side as show below you will have a total of 6 rolls.

I left 1 small piece of hair out of a ponytail on both sides.  All the rest of the hair put into a high ponytail. 

Take the hair you left down and pull it around the ponytail.  This is done to both sides. 

Take small amounts of hair from the ponytail and twist them until they curl up.  Secure them with bobby pins.

I made a total of 4 twists in the ponytail.  (you can do more or less depending on how much hair your daughter has.)
