Flippy Ponytails

Divide the hair into two ponytails, on your last pull through the elastic, only pull it through partway. Then curl the ends. Her hair is almost too long for this.

3 into 2=

A cute hairdo.

I stole this idea from The Lazy Organizer. She is super talented in EVERYTHING! This is a super cute little girls hairdo. I have done a similar one that involves a lot more elastics and a hand that is a lot more sore.

Split the hair into three ponytails across the hairline. Split the middle one into two and form two ponytails behind the three. Pull the side ponytails and 1/2 of the split ponytails together with the newly formed ponytails. Add some cute bows and VOILA!

Ready for Church

This is a French braid from her part and then secured and pulled into a ponytail. This is one of our standbys for church. I like their hair to look nice and sleek for church.


Sorry about the blur. It isn't always easy catching a picture of a busy 3-year old. We did two knots in the front half of her head and pulled it into a ponytail in the back and topped it off with a red flower. I am in love with flowers in their hair.

A sticky little secret



I had someone ask on my other blog how I got this hairbow to stick to Little Squishy's head. I tried EVERYTHING to get them to stick to The Princess's head when she was an infant. KY, Karo's Syrup, etc. They would just fall off and leave a sticky mess. I just resorted to brain squeezers, which aren't my favorite, but what do you do?

When I had The Pea, a darling nurse in the hospital told me a little secret. Use Elmers Glue. It is water soluble and if you just get their hair wet before you wash the rest of their body at bathtime, by the time you get around to washing their hair, the glue is soft enough to be scrubbed out. Make sure you catch the ribbon. I have had more than my share almost go down the drain.
