Little Girl's Hairstyles - How to do a Twist Braid Tiered Ponytail 10-15 min

Happy Spring everyone! I'm saying it now, since the last weeks of snow and rain haven't really made it feel like spring here in Utah. We'll see what the week brings, but as for today, Happy Spring!

Today's hairdo is a tiered twist braid ponytail. I like the sectioning like this, since it creates an eye-catching look, or at least she got a lot of compliments on it!
I started with four small ponytails up close to her face, two on either side of a center part.
Then I made three twist braids (see the how to do a twist braid post or video) from the four ponytails. I would use half of the middle two ponytails with the adjoining ponytails to create the three twists.
After I completed all three, I combed the hair in back smooth and joined the twist braids into a low ponytail, leaving in their secured ends.
I then took another elastic and wrapped it around where all the twist braids ended, creating another section in her ponytail.
Then I finished the ponytail with twist braids down the end. I did three, but do as many or as little as look good.
Super easy!
