MESSY TWISTS

I did twist braids on this, but if you can't remember how to do it - do regular braids. I just think twist braids are easier. If you click on twist on the labels list - scroll down to a post where it shows how to do a twist braid.

If anyone knows how to make the word twist be highlighted & then you click on it so it takes you to how to do it instead of having to scroll & look for it - let me know. I cannot figure it out for the life of me!! Thanks!! Zig-zag the part & do your two piggies.
Twist braid both the ponies (as many as you can get out of one pony)

Remember this messy bun we did a couple weeks ago?
& to secure it - you looped each piece & added a pin to secure it.
That's what you are going to do with each of the twists. Each twist will loop & secure with a bobby pin. The ends of what is left over, I looped all together & added a pin also. There were a few strands sticking out so I just sprayed them to keep them from sticking straight up. Make sure you go around in a circle getting each twist on your way.

mini buns

This was SO easy & fast.
Divide the hair into four sections & add the elastic

Do little buns out of each pony. I twisted each one & wrapped it around the elastic a full circle & added an elastic to hold it there. What is left from the buns hang down with the rest of the hair. I didn't want the buns ginormous so there will be a lot of hair left over.
Curl the ends & spray to hold. I have some plastic clips I wanted to put in but I couldn't find them but I think the look cute plain. You could tie some thin ribbon on each one too. Remember to curl the ends of the ponies too.
That's it!! Pretty simple.

This is just ponies with different braids, but you could do them all the same type of braid if you aren't sure how to do anything else.
Pull just the front back & do a tuck under knot.

From the pony of the tuck under knot, do different braids. I did a twist braid, normal braid & fish tail braid.
Pull it all into a low pony tail. Section the hair & do different braids in the pony. I did the same as above.
I added a bow to the top but with or without one looks cute.
& that's it!! Pretty quick & simple!

Knots & Braids

This works the best if her hair is damp, not dry. It's easier to do the knots that way. All it is are the tuck-under knots with a little variation.
Part the hair. Do the tuck-under knots going down, instead of back.

braid the pony that comes from the knot & pin it back to keep it out of the way.
Get your next section & add the braided pony to it. To do this tuck under knot, you divide the hair in half, just like you normally would & push the braid to one side & tuck it under. Pretty simple.
I did 3 sections of each of these on each side of the head. Put into braided piggies, add your cute bows & you are done!!

So I just got this darling head band & thought it would look cute with curly hair.
I used pink sponge curlers. First, I add gel. The put the curlers in when her hair is ALMOST dry & keep them in for a few hours in the morning instead of sleeping in them, because she won't. I find always works the best if you start the part in the front & roll the curlers in the way her part goes on each side. Then I make my way to the back.
This is what it looks like when I take them out. Right before I take the curlers out, I put a blow dryer to them to make sure the hair is completely dry. I run my fingers through the curls & then spray to hold.
Add your headband & there you have cute wringlets!!

side pony with worm twists

Start by parting from ear to ear to do your puff braid.
Pull it all back, including the section with the puff braid, into a low side pony.

To do the worm twist, twist a section of hair. Keep twisting until it begins twisting down. I left out the ends to make them spikey, but you could twist all the way down so they are not. You could do the whole pony tail, but I thought it was cute to leave some out. Pin the twists with bobby pins to hold in place.

Spray the hair to hold & that's it!!

I love low piggies on her so this was a great way to it.
Part the hair down the middle (I parted all the way down) & add your 2 little piggies.
I know I didn't do it with this first set of braids & piggies, but before you braid this, do your next set of piggies THEN braid. Divide the piggies into 3 sections, as shown to do your braid.

So this is how I did it. I added the ponies after. The next set, I added the ponies before & it's easier & quicker. If you do do it the way I did, you have to put an elastic in to hold your braid. But if you do your piggies first, then braid, just take 2 strands from the braid & take it to one of the piggies. While you're doing that, the other strand of the braid needs to be held in place, so pin it (I actually put it in my mouth to hold it. ha ha).
Make your next piggies & braid the piggies up above down to it doing the exact thing.
Spray to hold & add cute bows.
