I am taking requests.
So far on the list are a zig-zag part tutorial and a curling with a flat iron tutorial.
So go ahead, request away!
Triple Twists
Sometimes I start doing their hair and I never quite know where I will end up. You can tell that is the case with this do.
I started by wetting her hair and parting it in a zig-zag down the middle.

I then took each side and pulled it up into high ponytails.

Unfortunately there aren't pictures of me twisting her hair into corkscrews, but that is what I did. I separated each ponytail into three sections about the same thickness. I smoothed some pomade on each section and split it in half. Then I twisted each half in the same direction while twisting them together the other direction. I repeated on each ponytail until I had three twists on each.

Then I took each corkscrew and pulled it up under the main elastic. IF I had known where I was going with this, I would have used clear elastics. She was playing soccer that day and I didn't want to chance the corkscrews coming undone and so the elastics needed to stay in place. Clear would have been much less noticeable.

It will look like this. I am not a fan of those ends.

So I took my flat iron and curled them towards myself.

Then I added her soccer ribbons. Which, by-the-way, we can't use anymore because they won't let us use metal. Whoops. Guess they will have to wear them when they go to pro soccer games on daddy-daughter dates. The also helped to push those out-of-control ends back.

WINNERS
Welcome SITS Readers
I am so extremely flattered! Heather from "The Secret is in the Sauce" picked me to be their featured blogger today! Thank you ladies!
Just a little about me...I am a creative person by nature. With three busy little ones running around, I don't have a whole lot of time to put into that part of myself in this season of my life. Sure, I dabble a bit now and then, so I take out my creativity on my daughter's heads. My husband refers to it as "hair art". I have so much fun talking to my daughters while I twist and contort their hair to whatever my hearts desire is that day. Just this morning I got a rundown of the entire third grade class at my daughters elementary school.
I want to thank all of you that have come to my little corner of the internet! Have a look around, make yourself at home, enter a contest!
