Swim hair again!

Here is a second day of swim hair

we started with a braid right down the middle, I was not as careful with the parts cause it is only going to last a half hour and then we are going to wash it!

three braids now! oh and that's paint on my pants I promise!

pull everything into a super messy bun

Baby Mermaid's Swim Hair

We have swim lessons for our 2 youngest kids this week! So you know what that means! Swim Hair! I think that if I am paying that much for lessons, I don't want them to worry about their hair in the eyes flipping hair around etc. so get ready for a couple of posts on braids messy buns and updo's.

I did three dutch braids back and forth across her head

Then I pulled the rest of her hair up into pigtails and then messy bun loops

I really wish I would have made big bows to go swimming with! then I could tell what kid was mine from across the pool, but I haven't yet! LOL only I would want swim bows but y'all know me!

Triple woven french braid?

So For the little princesses half birthday we had a swimming party, so we needed something fancy that would hold up to water, this is what we came up with! It looks like a hard do I know but it was quite easy after I figured it out! sorry this is a very long post! and it has lots of pics!So I separated the hair into three sections length wise, Then I separated the center section into six, two across three down, then I french braided the front right piece down to the middle left piece back to the bottom right piece, then braided the hair all the way to the ends.

Here is the top view then we just repeated the other side

so here is the middle section all done! we went left right left instead of right left right! then I sectioned the hair on the sides just like I did in the middle and braided them out the same way

Here is the first braid on the left

Here is the left side and the center done, now, on to the right!

Here is the first braid on the right side, I wove it the same way I did the center one! I know it looks complex but it was really very easy!

all the tails I braided them down as far as i could

all the tails braided together!

then I tucked the tails up in a elastic to make a loop.

from the back

and the front!

puffy pigtails with braids

Second day puffy pigtails, Little princess hair still looked pretty good so we thought that we would spice it up a bit, we parted the hair down the middle to make pig tails and then sectioned off the front 2 pieces so this made 2 little pigtails, then I sectioned off a little piece of the pigtails and braided them back, crossed them and hooked them into the next pigtail, Here is a pic of me hooking the second braid across, OH and thanks Baby mermaid for our great photography!

Here are my next braided sections you can see how I pulled out little bits for the braids
Here is the second cross, made the same way as the first
Then I braided out the bottoms and tada you are done!

Fancy Swim Hair

To Cool for Hair got invited to a swim party so she called in mom to help her look cute and keep her hair out of her eyes! so we started by parting her hair across behind her ears, and pulling the back part into low pigtailsThen we parted the front on the side and french braided the hair back to the very bottom of the hair. She had her hair cut around Christmas and had side bangs cut, we have to do something with the front or it will just fall out of pigs or ponys. This would be great if you kiddo is growing out bangs or to keep long bang out of their eyes!

Then I pulled the braids back and wrapped them around the piggie and pulled it threw with my Topsy tail, then repeated it on the other side!

Here it is from the back

Here it is from the front!

Thanks for letting your mom play with your hair you are "The Best"
