Something simple, but cute! My gal here asked me to do this, since she really likes anything that gives her a bun or pony on the side.
I combed her wet hair over in the angle I wanted to do the braid.
This is my beginning point. For me, I have to really make sure I start in the right spot for anything that goes across the head on an angle. If you don't start out right, your angle ends up...not at an angle. I've done many a hairdo that end up looking slightly off.....rather than at an angle, and believe me, it ain't cute. So map out exactly where you want it to go, and reevaluate where you are braiding as you are going down the head. I had to restart this one twice because I got off track.
I did an inside out french braid here. You can see my video tutorial on regular french braiding if you prefer that, or I will be posting an inside out french braid video soon.
Doublechecking where I'm at here.
She preferred to have a ponytail hanging over the shoulder today, so who am I to disregard what my princess prefers? I braided it down a little bit, so it wouldn't pull on the baby hairs at the back of the neck, and left it in a pony.
This darling match-everything-flower is from B&B's Buttons and Bows. It just goes with anything pink!
If your kids are like mine, they frequently lose those cute cute bows, especially when they are off at school. So here's what I do to (try) help them NOT lose them. I stick the clip of the alligator clip down inside the elastic.
Side view
Her hair is slightly curly, so we do the old twist it around my finger when it's wet trick, and her hair will somewhat stay in a long ringlet like this throughout the day. This is a trick that my Mom used to do on me, and it works great! I spray it all lightly with hairspray, and she's off!
