Little Girl's Hairstyles - How to do a Puffy Braid Updo 10-15 Min

Well hi there..........I've been away for a while! It's been such a crazy last few weeks. My daughter started a new school, we've had family visiting, and I've just had other duties taking priority! But I hope to redeem myself and start posting regularly once again!

Here's a fun one that I saw on a little girl when we were at the library. I'm sure she thought I was odd as I kept glancing at her trying to 'understand' her hairdo so I could go home and do it myself!
Basically, this is just an upside down puffy braid, that starts at the base of her neck and travels up to a messy/stuffed bun up top. There is a front ponytail that will join the bun at the top as well. Begin by parting off the lowest ponytail section and clipping off the rest up top. Of course I do this with damp hair!
After doing this section, and the next section above it and putting them into puffy braids (shown below), I part off the top and frontmost ponytail, as pictured. In retrospect, I think I'd do a pull thru ponytail on the top, so it would lay flatter. Either works!
Then you are left with one last section, which is where you will join the bottom two puffy braid ponytails and the front ponytail.
Gather it tightly into a messy stuffed bun. If you want to watch the video on how I do this, go HERE.
Here's a pic of those nifty little bobby pins I love so much,
and how I'm using them to pin up sections of her stuffed bun to make it look more messy.
Voila!
Neat and tidy, cute and fast! Just how we like them!

Happy School Days moms and gals! Where did summer go!? My gal is already on her second week!
