Christmas Hair by Katherine

First of all I just want to thank Katherine for sending all the cute hairstyles.  Here is another cute one she did for Christmas.

 An easy and favorite hairdo on my daughter is the small ponytail, then put it and some more hair into another ponytail. I do two rows that go from the front to the back of her head. For Christmas Eve, I put a ribbon between the two rows like a shoelace.

If my daughter would let me use more than one elastic I will be trying this style on her as well.

Rolls to Side Pony

 This is fun easy and really quick.

I made a side part and then made a roll adding hair each time starting on the right side and rolled it down to the left side. (this will be your long roll)

Now on the left side start a roll just above her ear and roll to the bottom of her neck to meet the other roll. 

 Below is a picture of the 2 rolls before putting them together.

 Secure with an elastic.

 I then wrapped a small piece of her hair around the elastic and secured it.

 She wanted a flower so we clipped it above the elastic. 

Toddler Rolls

Although my daughters hair is very thin we got the rolls to stay in and they actually looked very cute.

I started on the right side and rolled her hair by pulling up new hair as we went back.

Then I made the same roll along the left side of her head.  

Because the end ponytail was very small we made a cute little messy bun at the end.

 She wanted a big flower so we put it over the messy bun. She ended up with a cute princess style. I didn't get a picture of the flower or the front.

Friend's Post on Toddler Ribbon HairBand

I apologize its taken so long to post these cute pictures but here they are. 

Katherine a blogger friend sent me these adorable pictures of her daughter.

She writes, "Hi, I've been subscribed to your RSS feed since my little girl's hair was long enough to put up. I've used your toddler posts as inspiration. Like the "Toddler Ribbon Hairband". What also inspired me was the hairbands where you make a small ponytail, then put it and some more hair into another ponytail. I've done that with my daughter's hair. I start at the back of her head, and go all around and back to the back, making a crown. As I go along, I loop ribbon around each ponytail. At the end, I clip the last ponytail with a hair clip. Attached are pictures of the results. The one with the white ribbon was when she was 21 months, and the other is at 22 months. Thanks for your ideas and posting them!!

Toddler Ringlets from Straightening Iron

This is my toddler's wild hair and I must say this is pretty mild compared to what it usually looks like when she wakes up.

So we went from the above picture to the one below in a matter of minutes with help from the straightening iron. 

 To give you an idea of her hair it is very thin and straggly.  The picture below is what we have to work with.

 

I start at the bottom of her hair and I work in layers, so I pull the rest of the hair in a clip out of the way.  Her hair has so many colic's in it that we change the curls directions depending on the way her hair naturally lays. 

I don't use the straightening iron the typical way of curling with it.  I slowly wrap the hair starting at the base of her head around and downward to the ends of her hair.  (if this is not clear please let me know)

I finish curling her whole head.

On this style I just pulled a small amount of bangs back out of her face. (she only lets me use 1 elastic)



Hair Tip

***A random tip*** When making french braids if you braid with the hair going over the top the braid will lay flat. If you pull the hair under the braid will be raised.
