Did You Know??????
That after all of the great suggestions on what to do with B's Easter style, I loved the BIG flower idea so much I ended up putting flowers in ALL my girls hair!
I purchased all of the flowers at the Dollar Tree! Nothing like keeping it cheap! I didn't attach them to any kind of clips or anything, I just kept the stems long enough when I cut them from the bunch so that I could stick them into the hair. They held just fine!
The only real change I made to B's style from the first one was that instead of 3 cornrows I only did two. I had said that maybe I would split up the hair from the middle cornrow and add it to the two outside ones. This probably would have made things really bulky so instead, I just took that middle section of hair and did NOTHING with it! After I finished the two outside rows I brought all the hair from the braids and the center section together in one ponytail holder. See original style and finished style:

Ok, now that I look at the pictures, I realize I had actually done french braids, not cornrows in the original style. They both look nice. And I parted the hair slightly different the second time around. But I loved the outcome. It was lovely.
I don't have a step by step for V's style this time either. But it is pretty basic. I guess I am into the low side ponytail, because I did it on both girls! I had cornrows start at the front left of her head - do a sort of squiggle pattern - and then end at the lower right side. To do this I started with the middle cornrow to set my pattern and then just worked out to the sides. I finished with a puff!
I also gave Young Man C a fresh line up. He is growing out his hair right now, because he is convinced that if he grows it, I will braid it. We'll see about that! Have I told you the story of the last time he grew it out? Anyway, it was a BUSY hair weekend for me, but ended with a beautiful Easter Sunday with family! Maybe I will post some family pics tomorrow.

ReplyDeleteGreat job on all three girls! We're going out of town for a bday party & I wanted a something special for my daughter's hair, and V's style is it. I love it!!!You are awesome... Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteVery fun! The flowers look so pretty. Did you attach the flowers to clips, or just stick them into the braid by the stem?
ReplyDeleteYou do great work I really like the mini braids they're real time consuming but worth the time they last a while and you can get so many different styles great work......
