If you are like me it is hard to change. AND staying in the
same old rut can be easy and does not require a lot of thought. Two Heads keeps
me searching for new ways to twist the tried and true but still keep it fairly
easy on mommy (and daddy).
The below is my five year old sporting a spin off of the same old two
pig tails style that every little girl has worn at least a million times :-).
Usually, when we do this style, we simply part her hair
straight down the middle and pull each side of her hair up into two pig tails. We accent
with barrettes on either side of the part and call it a day. Well, this
particular day we wanted to be a little risqué and take a departure from the
norm.
So this time we started with a zig zag part (which can be a
little tricky). The part takes a little time because you want each zig and zag
to be sharp and definitive so you may need to practice. By the way, I purposely
have a little more hair on one side than the other. I love how it looks a
little off set. I then zig zagged a little piece to the side at the nape of her
neck to add a little interest. And finally we added two tendrils on each side
to accent her little face. Instead of leaving the pig tails loose or braiding
them like normal, I looped them over into puffs. I still added barrettes on
either side and little tiny accessories to the tendrils. As you can see the tendrils are loosely twisted.
And there you have it…a little twist on the old school pig
tails. Shake it up!
