Hair 4.0

Tyson tells Lydia that if she eats her fruits and vegetables that her hair will grow long like Rapunzel. It is not completely a lie.....it is working....because that hair of hers is finally growing. This is the first time I ever did her hair. (August 2009, Oklahoma). I was in heaven. Aren't those the cutest piggies?

 

Here are a few more hairstyles we've been trying!
Easy Double Dutch braids. 

Left over hair from the Double Dutch braids. 



Fish tail pull backs.

Knotted braids. 

Regular braids, with one piece that is smaller than the others. Link here. 

5 Strand braid. (You tube 5 strand braid to learn how.) 

Bow Braid. (Lots of variations of this out there. I love this one!)

It's always a good day when your cousin leaves her dress up
clothes at your house and you get to dress like Snow White. 

Waterfall Twist.

This ones doesn't have a name....but it uses a lot of little elastics
and I love the look. It always lasts a few days.  

Double Stacked braid. Link here. (Will try again when her hair is a little thicker.) 

A Dutch flower braid. Link Here. 

Half up pony with a new bow! 

I made a whole slew of them! Here are a few of my favorites. 

Pattern:
Start with a slip knot. 
Chain 25. 
Skip 3 and Double Crochet 23. 
Chain 3, don't skip, DC 25. 
Fold into thirds. 
Wrap with yarn until it resembles a cute little bow. 
Use a glue gun to secure or tie a good knot. 
Fasten to an alligator hair clip.
