Cross braid

This hair-do I started and then thought hmm... I should take pictures of this one, cause I haven't done a post in a while. So this was a last minuet hair-do so the pictures aren't great but it's pretty easy.

I started with the zig zag part on the side 1/2 way on the head (I use the top of the ear to be a good stopping point) then I just flat french braided one side of it and braided most of the way down.

I did the same on the other side. (don't ya love how she draws and does her reading while I'm doing her hair?)

After that, I parted the rest of the hair in the back down the middle and made a pigtail adding the other side with it.

I did the same on the other side.  I figured out that it looks better if the braid is tightly pulled with the pigtail.

The cross is supposed to be a little to the side, if I had attached the braid tighter to the pigtail you would've been able to see it better. 
Then I braided the rest of the pigtails half way down. I like the looks of that because it will leave a cute curl at the bottom.

I obviously added some flowers but you could do a messy bun or just leave it down and put in some ribbons. I've done both and their both cute.

And the back

I've also had the part down the middle all the way down and had the criss cross even down the center, it's also cute, I just like to part on the side because I don't have to worry if it is center; it's a great thing when your short on time.
