April Hair Carnival-Copy Cat

For this Copy Cat Hair Carnival I received Mainly Braids for inspiration. Knowing that she does alot of braided styles I'll admit I was little scared! I don't know how to cornrow or anything like that. But I found a cute style I thought I could do fairly quickly as she has MANY to choose from! I chose this Braid out with inverted ponytails style. I have done braidouts on myself before, but I haven't on Khari.  I started with spraying down and conditioning her hair. I almost forgot to do this and it was bed time so I did fairly big braids. Her hair is pretty fine so I had to use little ponytail holders on the ends to that they would just unravel. 

 I have never used a sleep cap with Khari because I just didn't think she would keep it on, but I thought having one on would help prevent the holders on the ends her hair from falling off as I put them in pretty loose. I was wrong, she loved wearing it so now I will be in the market for a cute childsize one just for her.

 The little inverted ponytail on the sides rubberband broke so I just left it out.

Back.

In the end I thought it looked really dry so I ended up pulling it into a low side ponytail for church.

                         
    
Next time I think I will try a different conditioner and a styling cream to help it from looking dry and I will do smaller braids. I do think other than the dryness it looked very cute, so I will be trying this again soon!
