How did all the St. Paddy's day hairdos turn out? I saw some really cute ones when we were out and about that day. After a playdate on the play place at Carl's Jr., preschool, jumping on the tramp, and then a birthday party that evening, our shamrock hairdos were looking a little sad--but then, what hairdo would still look good after all of that? The gals got to play!
This was a quick hairdo before preschool one day, that I had grand designs for, but an impatient child stopped those before they got too far along. I was still happy with the result, and so was she (since she loves ANY hairstyle that leaves her hair DOWN). And I apologize I don't have a picture from the top down that shows both sides of the french braids, but, again, trying to get her out the door, and keeping her happy at the same time!
I started this french braid hairstyle with an angle part (going from a side part beginning and going diagonal across the top of her head).
I parted off on the larger side, down to her ear, prepping for the first french braid.
I did a french braid a few inches long, secured with an elastic, and parted off my next french braid section, keeping it equal to the first.
I repeated this one more more time, making three mini french braids on this side.
On the opposite side, I did two more mini french braids (I did use a backwards/dutch braids on mine, but do whatever is best for you).
If you have the time and oomph, flat iron or curl the rest of her hair, if needs be. Or just keep her smiling and say, "Hey, we are done!"
Happy Weekend Gals! We are off to dance competitions tomorrow, and more fun home painting projects (the nesting is really kicking in--my wonderful hubby is being kept BUSY!)
