How to do girl's hairstyles : How to do a Side Braid Flip 7-10 min

Hi Ladies! Here's a little hairdo I saw on a little gal not too long ago, and just thought it was great, not only because it was adorable, but most importantly, you could do it in a reasonable amount of time! Please forgive the grumpy face we have pictured here. We are a real life family, full of grumps and bumps, and it was one of those mornings. She did consent to pictures, although with a sigh and a "Oooooooookay!" Bless her little grumpy heart.

To start, I combed wet hair over to a side ponytail, with a side front part, and put the ponytail back behind the ear.
I then split her ponytail in half, and braided both sides, down the ends.
I then brought the braid ends up to the ponytail, ends out.
I took a clear elastic and wrapped it around to secure the braided ends. Don't mind me trying to take a picture while keeping my fingers in the elastic, for the sake of showing you what I was trying to do. The circulation did return, thankfully.:)
I finished it off with a cute little flower, sticking the clip down inside the elastic, and sprayed it well with hairspray. I also sprayed the ends and tried to fan them out around the flower, so they don't look straggly. You can also curl them real quick with an iron if they need some extra help, or pin them back using even the bow clip.
And we got a smile by the end........
