Puff Braided Bangs Ponytail


So this hairdo took 10-15 minutes. It is really easy, so anyone can do this.

#1 Part hair, ear to ear and pull back part into a low pony to get out of way or in a clip.#2 Comb hair from the left side over to the right side.

#3 Section off a square on the left side and tie off with an elastic.#4 I alternated colored elastics. Section off the next square and add the hair from the first square into the second.

#5 Section off next square and add hair from previous section and tie off with elastic. Keep repeating process until you've run out of hair on the side. It took me 5 sections.
#6 Comb hair that was out of the way into a high side ponytail adding in the hair from the bangs.
#7 Curl hair and tease and spray with hairspray.#8 Add a bow and voila.....one cute little piggie!

Twisted Puff Braid

So this is always a fun spin on a regular puff braid. This takes 15 minutes.

#1 Part hair on side and section off right side so you are only working on the left side.#2 Section off a square and put a clear elastic in it.#3 Section off another square right underneath the first square and tie it off with an elastic

#4 Separate top hair into 2 sections and twist to the right- ALWAYS to the right.
#5 Begin the twist braid by putting the right twisted piece over the left twisted piece and keep twisting until you get to the next sectioned off piece. Add the twisted part with an elastic to the section underneath it.#6 Separate hair into 2 sections again and begin twisting. Add to the final section of hair so it is now into a low ponytail. There should now be 3 twisted sections.
#7 Do the same thing on the right side.
#8 Separate left pony tail into 2 pieces and spray generously with water, unless their hair is already wet. Twists are always easier if they are really wet and they hold better as well. Begin twisting the right section over the left always twisting to the right until part way down and tie off with an elastic.

#9 Do the same thing on the right side.

#10 Add ribbons to the ponytails and voila.....one cute little piggie!

Puff braid bangs

This is a really quick 5-minute do. My cute little niece was over at our house the other day and I loved how my sister pulled back her bangs, so I thought I would try it out.

#1 Section off a square on the top of her head. Pull the rest of the hair back in clip.#2 Start on a diagonal and comb a section so it makes a triangle. Put into an elastic.#3 Comb another section on the diagonal and add the hair from the first section#4 Comb another section on the diagonal and add the hair from the last section.

#5 Comb last section and add all hair from previous sections to make a 4-elastic puff braid.#6 Straighten hair#7 Add a cute bow and voila.....one cute little piggie!
