My Little one's hair: Zig Zag rubber band pigtails

Hello all,

I've decided to start a blog about doing little girls hair since it is something that I love and something that I do EVERY morning.
To begin, let me tell you a little about my family!
My husband and I have two kids. A seven-year-old son and a five year old daughter.

I had been doing hair professionally for quite awhile. However, when we moved to a different state temporarily, I didn't want to get a new state license for just a short amount of time. I decided to take a break from professional hair while we were here. My daughter, though, is the age where her hair is just the right thickness and length to do all kinds of fun stuff, so I keep my skills in practice. I always get the famous question "How did you do that?" from a lot of people, so I thought I'd share.

I started this blog to help those moms who have a hard time doing their little girls hair and need some easy tips and ideas to make their daughters look done up for school or church. I probably won't have many fancy things here, like some other great blogs out there have; this will show the more simple and easy ways that I find to get hair done. I will also have some hair tips every once in awhile that I personally use. If any of you have any tips or different ways that you do things, please comment; it REALLY helps!

Zig Zag rubber band pigtails

This hairdo is really easy, it takes about 15 minuets.

First I parted a zig zag part down the middle. The nice thing about zig zag parts is you don't need to worry about it being center, so it goes really quick.

It's easiest to use a tail comb and part a little slant, then another going the other way and go all the way down, it might take some practice but once you get it, it's really easy.

After that I worked on one side and parted lines about 2" wide from middle part to the ear and put it in a ponytail, then do the next adding the hair from the first and work your way down to the bottom.
