Asymetrical hair

This was a fun lop-sided doo we did, sadly we didn't take pictures until the end of the day so it's looking a little shabby, but the fun off centered-ness of it made it fun!

cute braids

This one turned out better then I expected, Joely is the best for letting me experiment. A lot of times she comes up with ideas for me to try!

Dorthy Doo

Thanksgiving

Today we started with four small ponies in the front of her hair.

Each of those ponies was then braided.

I then made two messy buns with the remaining hair, I added the braids to the buns.

I thought it would be fun to weave the four braids, so both braids on the LEFT went to the bun on the RIGHT.

Both braids from the RIGHT went to the bun on the LEFT.

However, when I brought them to the opposite side, I made sure I wove the braids under then over the braids theat crossed it path on the way to the bun (I hope that made sense)

I ended with two big flowers!

Dorthy twist and messy bun

When ever I do this particular twist in Joely's hair I am always reminded of Dorthy from the Wizard of Oz.

I've wondered what this twist is called, but I have no idea. I do know it was easy and it stayed in great all day, sometimes we don't get so lucky.

Start with the hair parted down the middle and choose which side you want to begin with. I started with the right side, I began by taking the front section of the hair and divided it into two section, each time I twisted the hair I gathered a little more hair to add to it...like doing a french braid but only using two sections instead of three.

When I started doing the other side I made sure to secure the first side with a ponytail holder (that would later get removed)

When both sides were twisted I combinded them and made a messy bun then finished it with a large flower.

The other picture is of Joelys bracelet we made to match the outfit she was wearing... a girls gotta have her jewelry.... right?

mini cross over

Today we did an easy hairstyle, that I think just turned out super cute! I always like to add a little something extra instead of just doing a pony tail..so here is what we did today.

We made two little piggies in the front of her hair, and added elastics.

We then made two more little piggies directly behind the original two, before adding the next elastics though I added the hair from the opposit side- this way there was a little criss cross.

Finally I pulled up the remaining hair into a messy bun and added the cute little streamer bow we made last night!

Symphony 'up do'

These pictures were taken while waiting to go and see the symphony today! Mrs. Pays class had a fiedtrip today, so everyone had to dress in there Sunday best. We did this hair do loosly based on how we saw Emma hair last night at the ward Halloween party...Thanks for the idea Emma!
We started with two small puggies at the front of her hair, added elastics then braided.
Joelys held the braids while I prepared two more small piggies.
We crossed the braids to the opposit piggie and added another elastic.
We did this all one more time.
Then we ended by doing our final braids and brining them to the opposit side to a messy bun with the remaining hair for that side.
Add two cute and rather large hot pink flowers a we were done!

Sunday messy buns

What a cutie! Joely had her hair in four little ponies in the front of her hair with matching elastics, then pulled into two messy buns. This was so quick and easy, which was good because I had meetings at the church today and Joel is out of town, so I have to quickly get the kids all ready for church. She wanted to wear her two big blue flowers that we made, I know the don't perfectly match, but she never really gets a chance to wear them. She also wanted me to take a picture of the necklace she was wearing because it was a pecfect match to her dress. I know it's silly but we actually make a lot of bows and jewlery to match each school outfit that she has...hey we are having fun doing it so that makes it not so odd....right?

Twisted smocking

This is a cute smocking hair do we did. We sectioned the front of the hair into four sections and added matching rubber bands, then we twisted the hair and brought it down to two other little ponies. We kept one of the twisted sections from the left and added a twisted section from the right for the left side mini pony. We then did the exact oppsite for the little pony on the right. We then took both those mini ponies and added it to a big messy bun with all the rest of her hair. We were in Cedar all day and playing around, and by the end of the day it still looked great!
