My
Giveaway ends in 6 days...So don't forget
to enter to win some really fun stuff!!! Also thanks to everyone who posted about it or spread the word. I really appreciated it!
When I started doing this hair-do, this is not what I had envisioned. It was a completely different style! Yikes. Her hair was too thick to do the style I had imagined. I am going to save that style for another time and another model! So this is what I came up with instead. If you have been following me from the beginning you know
I cannot do a messy bun very well. So stumbling upon this worked out perfectly!
Start by pulling most of the hair into a ponytail. I only left out a small section at the bottom.
Next I did a reverse pull through. Where I brought the hair up through a hole in the middle of the ponytail underneath the elastic.
It should look like this. I then proceeded to do the same thing 2 more times(2 more reverse pull
throughs). This will vary depending on how long your daughter's hair is.
I braided the section at the bottom into 3 small braids.
Remove the original elastics and add all 3 braids into 1 common elastic.
So now you have this silly hair sticking up through the inside of the bun.
Take the braided section and pull it up through the same hole you did the pull-
throughs through.
See how you have this section of hair that is coming up through the hole? Bobby pin it so it stays put. Fold it down over the bun and spray with Hairspray until it reaches it's desired shape.
I bought these cute hair pins from our local dance/ballet supplier. It's like an open ended bobby-pin with a flower jewel on the end.
Slide them into their desired location. Or place whatever kind of hair accessory you decided to use.
