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!

Twisted Weave

This Twisted Weave, was not the hairstyle that I had in mind when I started, but after I finished I thought it turned out pretty cute so I thought I'd put it on here.

First I started with pigtails down the middle and parted it in half from ear to ear. 
Then I made 3 ponytails on each side.
After I had the ponytails, I twisted each one and tied them off with rubber-bands.
Once I had those all done I tied the 3 strands off to the opposite pigtail.
Then on the other side I just wove the other three in and out and attached it to the other pigtail.
After that I removed all the rubber-bands that were holding the twists and just added some flowers.

Flip Weave

This hair-do I have seen in a lot of different versions, I saw it on a little girl at the store and on a couple of different web sites, so I thought I'd do my own version and give it a try.


First I parted the front section from ear to ear. And part it down the middle.


Then I parted 8 sections, and did the flips towards the back of them.
 
After that I parted the rest of the hair down the middle. When you try this you should probably just start with parting the whole thing in the middle but this was the first time I did this so I didn't have all the quirks figured out.
I then left out the ponytails from the flips out to weave.  I took the top two flips and split them in half and left the two half ponytails out and twisted the rest and added them to a pig tail on the opposite side.
 

With all the other ponytails I twisted them and weaved them in and out opposite of each other to make a basket look.
  
I thought it looked really cute like that but I only had one flower to match her outfit so I put the pigtails together to make one ponytail and added the flower.

Tip: Work with the hair REALLY WET!! I didn't and I think if I had it would've made it a lot easier and less fly awayish.  Also I think it would be cute to make the weave part smaller (if your in a hurry), like only have 5 or 6 flips to work with, I don't know I'll have to try it and see how it works. 
If you try it let me know how it worked for you!
