After having 3 sons and 2 grandsons, I am thrilled to have 2 granddaughters so that I can fix their hair. Lorelei, who is the oldest, lets me "practice" on her(and on her Rapunzel doll). So far I have pretty much mastered 2 styles from the princess hair websites. The first one (shown in 2 photos front and back) is Piggytail Bows. You use the child's hair to create bows. Lorelei does not allow me to take this style out at bedtime! The second style I just did for the first time is Quick Cute Braids. For this one, I didn't do my twists really snug and tight so they appear loose in the photo, which is 3 hours after doing it. Also, you can't see the back of Lorelei's head but her ponytails sit high (because she was sitting lower than me when I styled her hair). It would be better to have lower ponytails so that there will be more braid on the head. I use the styles from the website PrincessHairstyles.com and the blog A Story of a Princess and Her Hair for ideas. They offer great photos and tutorials as well as UTube videos. My next project will be to attempt some simple styles for Lorelei's younger sister Genevieve who currently prefers only headbands.
