3 Twisted Piggies

Sorry I didn't have a step by step on this one. I remembered to take pictures after the fact. So this seems complicated but is actually a piece of cake.

#1 Part hair down the middle.

#2 Section off a square on the top left and put aside.

#3 Section off a square on the bottom right and put aside.

#4 Put the rest of the hair into the 2 pig tails.

#5 Make 3 twists out of the top left section and add to bottom right hair.

#6 Make 3 twists out of the bottom right section and add to top left hair.

#7 Spray hair with water bottle and make a twist braid out of remaining hair. Fold over so the ends are sticking up in the air and tie off with another elastic.
#8 Do the same thing on the other side.#9 Tease ends and add ribbons, bows, headbands, whatever.

#10 Voila..... one cute little piggie!

Zig Zag Piggie Tails

So #1 wanted pig tales today.  I decided to do them a little differently.

#1  Spray hair with water

#2  Use the pointy end of a comb and draw a  (z) pattern on the top of her head clear down to the nape of her neck.

#3  Pull one side into a ponytail or clip to hold until later.

#4  Section off from her part to the back of the ear.

#5  Add remaining hair in clip to hold until later.

#6  French braid the top part and braid back until you can combine into one ponytail.

#7  Do the same thing on the other side.

#8  Spray with hairspray and tie off with ribbons and voila....one cute little piggie!

Upside down French braided Piggies

This was a fun hairdo. It took about 15 minutes. A fun twist on a regular ponytail.

#1 Divide hair into fourths. Hair split down the middle, clear until the nape of the neck. Then Section off two sections on the top of the hair and two on the bottom. You will be French braiding upside down.

#2 Have daughter sit in chair, with her head flipped upside down. Work on right bottom section (or your left). Begin French braiding standard style clear up until you run out of hair. Tie off with an elastic.
#3 Repeat the same thing on the bottom left section. Tie off with an elastic into a ponytail. You should now have two high ponytails.#4 Undo the clip or ponytail used to hold hair away on the top right section and begin French braiding until you get to the ponytail and tie off with another elastic. Now both ponytails should be combined.
#5 Repeat step #4 for the top left section.#6 Curl hair#7 Spray hair generously with hairspray. Add some cute ribbons and voila.....one cute little piggie!
