Braid to Ponytail

This is the same style done on both of my girls.  I just wanted to show how different one style looks from different types of hair.

This first set of pictures is of my Toddler's hair.  I made a simple french braid of top of her head I angled it to the left just a little bit.

Then I pulled all the hair including the braid into a ponytail. 

The last step was making ringlets in her ponytail.

My older daughter is next I did the same french braid along the top of her head.

Then I pulled all the hair except the french braid into a ponytail. 

I wrapped the french braided hair around her ponytail and secured with a clear elastic. 

I also put ringlets in her hair to finish off the ponytail. 



2 Braids into Ponytail

This is a fun way to add a little more to your ponytail.

First start by making a square part on the top of her head.  Make a french braid along the back of the square. *shown below* 

Then make a french braid along the front hair line parallel to the first braid. 

Put all the hair except the front braid into a ponytail secure with an elastic.  Then wrap the front braid around the ponytail.  Secure that with bobbie pins or a clear elastic. 

Below is the top view. 

Below is the side view. 

Toddler Roll to Side Pony

My little one asked me a little while ago for a side ponytail.  With her hair being so short and thin, I wasn't sure how I was going to pull this off.  I have done this style on my oldest all the time but had never thought it would work in my toddlers hair.  But lucky or us it turned out and she loves it.

We started with wet hair then we rolled adding new hair with each roll until it was rolled to the opposite side of her head then we secured it with an elastic.

She likes flowers so we added a flower. 

Simple Toddler French Braids

I know this style seems simple which it is but this is a huge style for my toddler who has such thin and short hair.  She was so excited when we could finally french braid.

All you do is make a center part and then french braid each side down to the ends. 

Lauren Braid to Pony

This is another Lauren hairstyle from the TV show Make it or Break it.

We just recently cut my daughter's hair and gave her bangs so her style looks a little bit different. 

First start by making a part from front of her ear to the front of the other ear.  Pull the hair in the back out of your way. 

I started just above her right ear and made a french braid.  The key to this braid is pulling the hair under rather than over.  This makes the braid stand up on her head rather than lay flat. French braid all the way across the top front of her head. 

Secure the bottom of the braid with a clear elastic.

Pull all the hair into a low ponytail. 

Take a small piece of hair and wrap the elastic.
