Ponytail with Sidewinders

After yesterday's MESSY hair Wednesday post I figured I should post something where my child doesn't look like a rag-a-muffin! I was originally going to do something like this to see how much of a difference it would be 7 months later, but she wasn't having it and kept moving around so after the first 2 front piggys I just braided them and connected them to on ponytail. With Khari's 'shrinkage' (I've never used that word before!!), it isn't much of a ponytail, but I still think it's cute! My son brought down 2 sidewinders (That I won!!) so I stuck those in before I dashed out of the door! These pictures were taken with my IPod before I left to work so the quality is pretty horrible!

Back all curly and wet.

My little helper wanted me to take a few picutes of him so I of course obliged! He was next, but I had to run out the door so daddy was left to do his hair!

Happy Face!

Mad Face!

Sad Face?

Crooked Piggies

Today I wanted to do a Monkey See, Monkey Do from PrincessHairstyles.com, but my nook wouldn't pull up that post and I had limited time this morning (I was still 5 mins late to work actually, but it was my fault). So instead I just did some crooked piggy's. As I've said before I'm not great with parts so I just did a crooked part (on purpose) down the middle (front to back) and then parted from ear to ear. I first put a ponytail in the top section then connected it into a piggy with the back section and repeated on the other side. I think next time I will do four on each side and have the piggies be lower on the back of her head.

Monkey See, Monkey Do: Keyative Styles Pullthrough Headband

Keyative Styles mommy did this cute little pullthrough ponytail headband on her daughter Keyanna. I saw it yesterday and was like I have to try that on Khari. I only pulled through the middle 4 ponytails on Khari's hair because I was late for work, but I still think it is cute.

Monkey See, Monkey Do! Princess Hairstyles(picture day)

Why hellloooo there! Somebody? Anybody? Ah well I'll write to myself I guess. :-)
I saw this hair style at Princess Hairstyles.com and I thought it was so cute! But. I don't know how to cornrow or lace so I did my own thing. In stead of cornrowing her hair I just kind of twisted it. I say kind of because this girl would NOT hold still so they look kinda bunk. I also couldn't pull up the pic on my nook this morning and I was in a rush so I tried to do it from memory. I didn't realized she didn't connect all three parts until just now. Oh well. Here it is! As you can probably tell, we do hair at breakfast time.

She was so excited when she saw this bow I made! She kept putting it next to her shirt and smiling.

Oh how I love these curls.

Monkey See, Monkey Do! GoldilocksnMe (Sidewinders)

I saw this 3 braid style done using sidewinders over at Goldilocks*n*Me, but hey I don't have any so I improvised. Like the mother over the there (not sure if she wants her name or initial shared as I couldn't find it on her blog) I did the 3 braids then connected them at the ends. I just used a clip to hold them down and I left Khari's hair out in a Wash N Go instead of a braid like she did. So... Ta-Da...

Monkey See, Monkey Do! GoldilocksnMe (A Little Bit of this)

There aren't very many toddler blog styles for me to copy so I figured I would take a style from my favorite hair blog and modify it to fit my teeny tiny baby head of hair. I saw this style on Goldilocks*n*Me and I copied the top half.



The top

 I made two sections instead of three and I took all the hair from the right side of her hair instead of just the middle because I thought it looked better on her short hair. I did two ponytails then connected them as Khari is a mover and a shaker and wouldn't sit still (hence the not so straight parts and not so slilck hair). I twisted the first ponytail before I connected it. I was going to twist or braid the second one as well, but it just curled right up so I took it out and just added a clip so I would lay a bit flatter.



The back

I just left the back out in a 'wash' and go. I thought it looked pretty cute and I can't wait until Khari's hair gets long enough to add the slide braid to this style!
