4 pony tails!

Ok so I asked Madison how she wanted her hair yesterday and she wanted 3 ponies. So I did a repeate! Today I asked how many and she wanted 4! So I parted like I was doing 2 1/2 ponies on top. Braided those 2 and then did 2 more 1/2 ponies on bottom. I took the braided 2 and twisted them so that the one on the left went to the pony on the bottom left. It looks cute :D

squished braids and pony.

This was a quick hairstyle. I wasn't sure how it was gonna turn out since Priss has shorter hair. But it turned out really cute. I parted her hair like I was gonna do 2 half up ponies. I put rubber bands towards the back so that her hair was more towards the back. Then I braided each pony. To squish it up I held the 2 outside pieces in one hand and the middle in the other and pulled. When done your braid will be considerably shorter. You have to work with it if it's wet. I found that dry it slides nicely when I was just practicing but I can't fix her hair dry or it won't look finished well. After both sides are done then rubber banded it off and pull the rest of the hair in a pony and add the braids. Then I took a small piece and pinned it up so that the rubber band was covered and your done :) I looked at a blog this morning that reminded me of the squished braids. I don't remember which it was or if this was the hairstyle so I can't give credit. I will keep hunting for it though :)

Side part braids

This took me like 10 mins max start to finish. I started by pulling hair on the side and braiding it so that it looks like below. You could put some french braiding in and take it back farther but Madison's hair doesn't look as good french braided on the side because she has thinner hair.

Then I did the part like her picture day hairstyle, but this time I did a reg. braid instead of an inside out braid. I have done inside out braids so much that it's hard for me to do a reg. french braid now.

Then I connected the 2 braids with a rubber band. Madison's braids aren't connected because it's too short but I connected the hair after the braids :). I used brown rubber bands so it wouldn't show so bad.
