Angel Braid Bangs Back

My daughter is going through the "I want my hair down phase" 

This one is very similar to the other Angel Braid we did before except this one is keeping her bangs back and we added ringlets.

This braid is really easy once you understand how its done.  Start the braid as you would a french braid.  The only difference is you are only going to add hair from one side.  On her I made the 3 sections and then only picked up hair from the right side each time. 

Once the braid is in place I made ringlets with my straightening iron.

super cute such nice ringlets, too. How long do they stay in her hair?
 
I wash my daughters hair every other day, so as far as how long they stay in. I have had them last beautifully for 2 days with just a few touch ups on the 2nd day.  This is however only when I use the ringlet curling iron .  If I do her ringlets with a straightening iron they only last through the day.

Braided Bangs 2

Another braid to hold her bangs back.

This one is hard to see the braid but it is french braided slightly diagonal with only about 4 or 5 times I pulled hair back.  Then I made sure her hair laid over the braid.

Braided Bangs 1

Here is 1 of 2 braided bangs back to help while growing her bangs out. 

All I did was a simple small french braid in a slight diagonal.  I braided the hair almost all the way down and secured with an elastic.

Curls Twists and Fancy Fun

This style is so simple and yet so cute. 

First I made ringlets all over her hair.

Then I made very small twists with her hair and secured them with small bobbie pins.  If your daughters have thin hair then you can cross 2 bobbie pins to make the twists stay.

Next make some more small twists on the other side as shown below.

The fun part of this style is you can cross and mix the twists however you want.

im just wondering with this hairstyle how you get the braid to stay still while putting up the ponytail? i've used a hairtie but that was impossible to remove once the ponytail was up and tried bobbypins with a bit more success

For this style I used a clear elastic but the trick is to extend the braid a little bit father than the french braid goes.  On this particular day I just hid the elastic with the hair I pulled up.  If the elastic still shows I have also used cuticle scissors and cut the elastic out or I use a small bobby pin to use the pulled up hair to cover the elastic.

Make it or Break it Lauren Roll to Ponytail

Sorry it has been awhile my daughter has spend most of the summer away from home. 

Here is another one of Lauren's hairstyles from the TV show Make it or Break it.

Make a part from ear to ear and just pull the remaining hair into a ponytail out of your way.

Then start with the hair above one ear. I started with her left side.  You are going to roll the hair similar to french braiding but only having 2 strands and adding to 1 side.  I did my best to show it below.

Make the roll go all the way across the front of her head (from ear to ear) secure the end with an elastic.

Then pull all the hair into a high ponytail.
