Young Hair-Dos!!!

2009-07-26T17:54:00.000-07:00

MaKady has subscribed to a girls magazine this last year and in one of the issues there were 15 different ways to wear your hair so we've been trying a few here and there. I'll post more as we attempt them. This one is two sections french braided and then pulled together at the ends. Meggan lets me use the curling iron to finish then ends and I think it turned out really cute.

Pony Braids and Ribbon.

2009-07-26T17:51:00.000-07:00

We did pony braids and she wanted them dressed up a little so I wove ribbon through them.

New Friend~ New Hobby

2009-04-27T19:58:00.001-07:00

I had the opportunity to spend the afternoon with a great new friend learning to make these super cute hair bows. Check out my other blog for the complete story:-)

Braids with Ribbon

2009-04-08T19:14:00.000-07:00

This is two pony tail braids with a really long ribbon wove back and forth. She loved it.

Gracie after a bath

2009-04-08T19:11:00.000-07:00

If you read my other blog you will realize why it has been forever since my last post...Sorry. the camera is up and going with an empty memory card and it's time to start adding posts. This is Gracie after a bath and she wanted her hair up so it just a twist with a flower holding it in. I love her little expressions.

Braid & Ribbon Headband

2008-11-19T10:35:00.001-08:00

We saw something like this on another hair site I think it was "the story of the princess and her hair" and thought maybe we could try it. I think it turned out really cute.

Pre-Halloween Practice

2008-10-26T18:11:00.000-07:00

This is a pre-Halloween practice. She's trying to figure out the hair for her princess costume. I think she just wanted to wear the tiara to church.

Baby Bun

2008-10-26T18:10:00.001-07:00

This is a little mini version of Meggan's Tinker bell. Hi pony, lots of ratting.

Meggan's Tinker Bell

2008-10-26T18:06:00.000-07:00

This starts with a high pony and then you rat it, rat it, and rat it some more. Tuck the ends in with bobby pins. The head band and flower were her own addition.

The girls did mom's hair.

2008-10-26T18:04:00.000-07:00

Do you remember these little plastic barrets. I remember them from when I was a little girl and we have a small container of them. So I got the royal treatment and got to wear everyone we own.

Mom got a new toy

2008-10-26T18:01:00.000-07:00

Okay I may be the last girl on the block to get a straightener but that doesn't mean I'm not excited to be trying it out. MaKady passed out the first time we used it on her head. I think it was the fear of moving and she locked her knees. So from now on we sit to do her hair. I'm looking for new styles that use the tool. Any suggestions are welcome.

Lot's of Braid's

2008-09-25T06:12:00.000-07:00

This is another one from one of the hair blog's we keep up on. It is a pony with lots of braids and then pinned back up over the elastic with the ends finished. Now isn't that a mouth full. The next time I do this one I will leave the ends of the braids longer so there is more to curl on the top.

Mulan Hair

2008-09-25T06:10:00.001-07:00

I bought these hair sticks at Claire's on a 10 items for $5 and they have sat in a drawer until I saw on another hair blog we follow, just how to use them. I think it turned out pretty cute and it was pretty easy.

Braids to a pony-tail

2008-09-25T06:07:00.001-07:00

We braided the sides and then pulled them back to a pony tail. Then finished it with a flower or a messy bun.

Heidi

2008-09-09T10:27:00.000-07:00

I think I read somewhere this was channeling Heidi. It is two ponies, braided and then turned into loops. Really fun way to keep it up and back her two favorite ways to have her hair.

Puffy Braids on the Babe

2008-09-09T10:25:00.000-07:00

This is how we braid the baby's hair!!

Upside Down Braids

2008-09-09T10:24:00.000-07:00

She wanted really high ponies and the only way we can get the baby hair to stay up that high is to braid it in. So she laid on the ottman and flipped her hair upside down and we braided it. So Cute!!!

Knots

2008-09-09T10:22:00.001-07:00

We took two small squares of hair on each side of her part and tied them in knots but didn't pull them tight and then secured them in a low pony tail. I think it turned out really cute.

Spiral Curls

2008-09-03T20:00:00.000-07:00

She wanted her entire head curled and I didn't have time so we did spiral curls all around the top and she was happy!

The Star fish

2008-09-03T19:58:00.000-07:00

One big pony tail, 5 sections, braid each of them and tuck the ends back in to the main elastic and fluff the ends.

Puffy braids

2008-09-03T19:57:00.000-07:00

This is meg's hair. We did braids with pony tails. She thought it was great.

Little Pony's all the way around

2008-08-26T10:31:00.000-07:00

We did 5 pony tails across the front and 3 in the back underneath and then pulled the rest and the tails into one big pony tail. Her hair is getting so long and it is still pretty warm that she wants it up most days.

Infamous 80's side pony

2008-08-26T10:30:00.000-07:00

This is a flash back from when I was younger. We just updated it with a flower. All my girls love the side pony.

"Stinkin" Cute

2008-08-26T10:28:00.000-07:00

Our babysitter Jess did Grace's hair and she said it was "stinkin" cute so she took a picture.

Puffy Braids

2008-08-26T10:26:00.000-07:00

This is a quick way for her to feel like I braided her hair.

New Pony tail

2008-08-17T15:49:00.000-07:00

This is really similiar to a previous post called madonna hair but instead of a braid we took a small section of the underside of the pony tail and wrapped it around and secured it on the bottom with a bobby pin. Her hair is so thick you can't see the pins.

Maddie Hair

2008-08-17T15:46:00.000-07:00

My kids like "the suite life of zack and cody" and there is a girl named maddie who has this hair style once in awhile and we try to copy it. It is a row of 5 pony tails then they are split into 4 tails, then 3, 2, and 1. I think I've read on other sights its called smocking?

Crown

2008-08-17T15:45:00.000-07:00

We call this a crown at our house. It is the sides braided back and some times we add a flower or a bow.

2 french twists

2008-08-17T15:42:00.000-07:00

This is a fun way to twist her ever thick hair. We did the top half twisted and then because it is so hot and she always wants it up off her neck we twisted the bottom as well and left the ends in messy pony-tails.

Baby pony braids

2008-08-17T15:40:00.000-07:00

I love that these stay in all day and it's a fun way to make it look like a braid.

Madonna Hair

2008-08-17T15:38:00.000-07:00

There is a picture of Madonna(not big on her, just liked the hair)from like the 90's where she has a high pony tail with a braid wrapped around it. Meg liked the picture and so this is our attempt at that hair.

My little man

2008-08-17T15:35:00.000-07:00

He was just a little jelous of the girls always getting their pictures taken and added to this blog so this morning was his turn. He has the most beautiful butterscotch colored hair and when he was littler he believed that he kept it orange by eating carrots and oranges.

Baby Piggy's

2008-08-10T15:35:00.000-07:00

This is right before family pictures and it is two little piggy's on top with bows she even let me curl the ends.

Twists

2008-08-10T15:33:00.000-07:00

This is right before family pictures and it is two twists joined in a pony in the back.

Triple Barrel

2008-08-10T15:30:00.000-07:00

This right before family pictures and MaKady wanted all of her hair curled in ringlets because of the time factor we compromised and I used the triple barrel curling iron and I think it turned out really cute and maybe a little too grown up.

Kady's Braids

2008-08-08T08:16:00.000-07:00

These are regular flat braids sometimes called indian braids.

Top Twist

2008-08-07T09:04:00.001-07:00

This is a section of hair twisted until it winds back on it self and then held in place with an elastic. We finished her ends with the curling iron and tied a bow at the top of the elastic.

Baby ponies

2008-08-07T09:03:00.001-07:00

This is the babe's hair sectioned into two high ponies and the ends finished with the curling iron.

Ballerina Hair

2008-08-07T08:59:00.000-07:00

This is a bun formed by making a pony-tail, dividing it into 3 parts and creating 3 braids then wrapping the braids in alternating directions and securing it with pins. We then wrapped a ribbon around to hide the ends of the braids.

Puffy Braids

2008-08-07T08:56:00.000-07:00

These work great when you want to braid short hair. Just keep adding the previous pony-tails hair to the next pony as you move down the head.

Latice pony-tails

2008-08-07T08:54:00.000-07:00

These are two pony tails that as I moved down her head I added the hair from the other side.

Pom Poms

2008-08-07T08:52:00.001-07:00

These are two low pony-tails that when I got to the last time to pull through the elastic I only pulled the hair half way. We then finished the ends with a curling iron but it's just as cute messy.

Kady's braids

2008-08-05T10:24:00.000-07:00

Puffy-Braids

2008-08-05T10:14:00.000-07:00

A new Blog!

2008-08-05T10:06:00.000-07:00

I have three girls who have discovered a new passion for letting me do there hair. We thought it would be easier to keep track of all the new things we've tried by blogging. Hope you enjoy.
