To get your spacing on this one it is easier to start with a poof in the front center of her head. Then make a small french braid on each side of the center poof.
The picture below is the top of the head to see what was done the poof in the middle of her head and then the braids down each side (note: there is still a small amount of hair left down above her ears)
She wanted a big bow so we clipped it on the side of the ponytail.
