SideWinder Hair Holders
Recently we came across the latest, funnest, and easiest hair accessory. The website if anyone is interested in these is http://www.hairholders.com/. Keep watching my hairblog because YES for the first time in The Wright Hair history we are doing a giveaway. We will be giving away some Sidewinders.
The SideWinders added some flare to this simple style. We picked the colors clear and green because my daughters school colors are blue and green. She had so much blue on that we wanted to emphasize the green.
I first made a zigzag part and then made a simple, thin french braid . Do this to both sides as shown below. I left some hair out above her ears.
Once the french braid is done I added the SideWinders I mixed my colors so I used one green and one clear instead of 2 of the same color (for instructions on where to buy or how to use go to http://hairholders.com/)
Do this to both sides. *NOTE* if your daughter has thin hair or you don't use a lot of hair then use a clear elastic at the end to keep sidewinder in place.
Once the sidewinders are in place then I used a clear elastic to pull them together in the middle of her hair.
I feel like I have a lot to smile about right now. Summer is almost here. My girlie will be out of school in 3 days so that's good news for you guys - we'll be able to post more:) Summer also means 2 weeks at the beach!! Can. not. wait.
Also - my man graduates college today. After going for 10 years, many degree & school changes he is officially done!! & to add to our exciting week - he won a drawing at work for a 7 day cruise to Mexico for the 2 of us!! Hooray!!
Since I'm in such a good mood this morning - I'll finally post this. It has been in my folders for a few weeks now. Like I said - once this girlie is out of school - hopefully be hanging around here more often.
If you can't french braid - or don't have time - cut the braid on top - but *warning* it adds so much to this & it's darling. This would be perfect for another short hairstyle. Anything with the runners going up is awesome for short hair because it keeps all those straggling baby hairs up.
Start by adding 3 elastics on each side at the bottom of the hair (yes I see Lola & Lota in the tv. charlie & lola is a favorite during hair time:)
Once you've got your 3 elastics on each side - start at the bottom & bring them together, in the middle. Take the next section to the middle but include the bottom with it - making your way up.
Here's what it should look like:
I did the braid with only ONE strand. Remember this? Super easy. You start a regular braid & only add to one side of the braid (right side in this case) so it flips the braid more on it's side.
With the french braid on top, divide the hair on bottom into 2 sections & throw those into 2 pigtails, like so
We finished with messy piggies because they are the fastest for us. But if you would like to take the time to curl or do something else - it would all be cute!

Rolls
My mom used to do this to my hair when I was little. I have alway put off doing it for that reason. I was in disneyland and say a cute little girl with a similar hairstyle so I figured at that point why not share it.
This style is so easy to do especially if it is wet.
Start on one side and start rolling adding hair from the outside similar to adding hair with braids but from only one side. The style is as simple as that. Do it to both sides and secure in the center with an elastic.
If you like accessories add a bow or flower.

Princess Braids
This braid is very fun and simple. The most difficult part is getting it to stay tight. You start like a normal braid the only difference is that when you go to add the hair on the downward side leave the folded across hair out and add the new hair only.
I did this on both sides of her hair and then secured them together with an elastic.
