Violet Bouregaurd!

Our Little Baby Mermaid was Violet in Willy Wonka, and I just have to brag a bit! she did such a great job! we were so proud!

Here she is with her mother and Willy Wonka,

Here she is getting tempted by the gumball

Starting to blow up

Getting bigger

And Bigger until she finally popped!

Here is The Little Princess as a oompalompa

 

and Monkey Man as a oompalompa

Half a Knot and curls

Little Princess wanted her hair curly and pulled back to show off her new “glasses” so I just did this super easy do..

I just pulled back the bangs, got out the topsy tail and wrapped her elastic with hair,

Then I pulled out the curling Iron (yep I kinda went back to the Iron for this one not the chi) and curled her hair super quick, and your done!

sideways braid (Kristal this is for you)

So I started with fresh clean dry hair on Baby Mermaid for this one,

Then I did a sideways braid down from the front to right above her ear on the other side

I kept braiding her hair until I just had a little end then I secured it with a rubber band, next I folded up the end of the braid, and secured it with bobby pins, remember this is Baby Mermaid so we hooked bobby pins in every loop of her braid crossing, so its in really tight

Then we took the end and slipped it through the braid with our topsy tail (I could have used my fingers if I didn’t have such a useful tool. Then I just bobby pined the ends back down the bottom, you cant even see them they are under the first braid,

and your done!

More Braids and buns

Baby Mermaid wanted her hair up for church so I decided to try a bunch of pigtails all over the back of her head to see if I could get that “modern Bride” big hugeo bun on the back of my head look, and guess what It worked! So I started by dutch braiding her hair back into two, just to her ears and then finishing off the braid down to the ends,Next I put her hair in 7 random pigtails all over the back of her hair, this really created a nice base for her hair to be pinned to, I like to do all of my pincurl buns on a ponytail base, for my kiddos because I think they stay in better and my kids are pretty active. especially Baby Mermaid with her tourettes, her hair has to be solid.This picture you can see where I hooked her braids just to keep them under the bunThen I started rolling her hair and adding bobby pins to keep it looking full,Just keep going and your done!

Here is some cheese to start off your day!

Braided headband with blue

So Baby Mermaid wanted blue hair today, so I just colored a streak in using my Crayola markers, make sure you use washable ones, Its red ribbon week hence the bow tied to the glasses,

Then we just hooked everything up in the elastic and stuck a flower on it

Curled the ends and your done!
