Double Dutch with an extra braid, and some Turkey Tails!


So, I don't have good step by steps, because I really just started out with the plan to do a double Dutch and turkey tails but half way down the first braid I decided to take a braid across, so I just stopped and took out a little piece, and then continued down the braid, then when I got to the other side, I braided halfway down and added the braid, I am sure you can figure it outDSC_0964 DSC_0965
Then I just made the turkey tails by looping the braids under, chi’d the ends, and fluffed them out by back combing them a titch.DSC_0966  DSC_0968
And your done, do you want some cheese with your Hair?DSC_0969

Happy Hair,

Twisted Rope Bun

Today on Book Worm she wanted her hair up, She has been working on the Lyndi Hop at school in ballroom. And if you click that link you will see why her hair needs to be up LOL   DSC_0951
Her hair is so heavy I pulled the back part into a pony tail and then left the front part out,

then I roped back both front sides, and hooked them into the pony tail

Then I put her main pony into a rope, I didn't do it as tight as I usually do, I guess I was just to lazy! oh, if you can tell by the pictures I looped the end of the hair back up and made a little knot end on her pony tail

Next, I looped the rope up above her pony, and , continued around,

Then I took that little end and hooked it under that loop DSC_0956
I added tonz of bobby pins just to make sure,

Hope you like this do, Book Worm has tonz of hair which made for a big thick bun, but I think it would also work good on thin hair or as pigtail buns, it made a super secure bun, and lasted good all day even with that crazy dancing!

Fairy tail braid into a pony (easy version)

I didn't do a step by step on this one. I was just making things up as I went. I planed on leaving it long but… Too Cool For Hair wanted it up. So after I did the braid (waterfall fairy tail whatever you would like to call it) I did it the easy way (as previously posted) I pulled it up into a low pony and wrapped all my elastics with hair. It turned out really cute!hair and bows 035 hair and bows 033 hair and bows 034

easy waterfall braid and dyed hair!

The kids were out of school and Baby Mermaid wanted blue hair, I was thinking of a streak here and there. I always use watercolor markers (such as crayola) and it always works so good and I have no problems. however I said sure and I was busy for a second and I would come do it in a second….. My second must of taken to long because she did it herself and needless to say its a little bit more blue than what I was expecting.
so I just French braided a skiny braid in her hair,hair and bows 009
Then I took the top section that is above the braid and loose, hair and bows 010
I hooked my finger through the braidhair and bows 012 hair and bows 013hair and bows 014
