Triangle of braids (or twists)

I love doing little french braids because I can leave them in for a few days, so I'm always looking for different patterns :) Start with the whole triangle & secure the rest out of the way. Divide at an angle into as many sections as you want and braid- I also did the same thing on her friend's hair only with twists. These are quicker than french braids and have the same effect. If anyone wants a video of them, I can make one- they are super easy and stay in as well as french braids.

Double Knots and a Puffy Bun...

Start by Parting the top middle section in a triangle.

Pull The rest of the hair in a pony to stay out of the way. Section off the top, and double knot it.



Then add the first section down into the second and knot that part.




Keep doing this all the way down diagonally toward the left or right ear. I did Five knots, but you can do as many or as few as you would like.




Tie it Off and add the rest of the hair into a side Pony Tail.




Pull hair only half way through.




Curl the extra hair over the bun.



I added clips to hold the fly aways down.




Tease the Hair with a comb to make it appear fuller, and add a flower clip.

Dressing Up Piggies...

Part Hair down the center.

Next, start at the top middle, and section off a rectangle.
Then add the first piece into the next. I did three rectangles, but you can do as many as you would like.

Do this down both sides.
A lot of people have asked how I get my daughter to stay still? Do you see the computer screen? I blast High School Musical Music for her to watch and listen to.


Pull each side back into Piggy Tails, and add bows!



Finally, Curl the remaining hair.




Happy Hair Day!
