heart shaped hairstyle with braids

This style was inspired by this design I had seen on Chocolate Hair Vanilla Care. I thought it was SUPER cute and had to do it. The night before I actually already did the left side with the heart design and I put her to sleep like that because I was stumped and didn't know what to do to the rest of her hair. The next morning I saw this post and decided to incorporate it into what I already had and it turned out great!

This is the top left side with the "heart".

The right side of the style. Sorry its blurry. I basically flat twisted all around her head and tied it off when I reached the left side.

She actually wore this style for Halloween as well. She was a fairy and it went great with it. & babydoll was a lil bumblebee. I didn't get any good pics :( but they did have a lot of fun!

snagged style: braided hairstyle

I got this style idea from a hairstyle I saw tagged on Facebook somewhere, so I did NOT come up with this style. Its a version of it!

simple braids into princess hairstyle pony

I really loved this simple braided style. It reminded of a princess. I simply just sectioned out a part it in the front and braided a few braids going back. I then divided them in half to braid the braids together and wrap around her head, and then secured them together where they met in the middle. Then, I braided all together and secured it with a barrette . The back was left out. (:

mohawk with flat twists and cornrows pulled into a side ponytail

For this style I wanted to do a mohawk with each row alternating between cornrow and flat twist, cornrow and flat twist. Half way with one side I got lazy and just decided to pull the rest into a ponytail to the side. I secured atleast three rows together with rubberbands that were dipped in olive oil and then pulled it together in a ponytail.

For this style we used Jaja's hair and body pomade by Created By Nature we won a few weeks ago from a giveaway by Untrained Hairmom. Review coming soon on the product, until then check out Untrained Hairmom's!

kid's braided hairstyle part II

I wanted to update on the current style we have in now. If you missed the first post check out kid's braided hairstyle

As you can see in the previous post all I did to the style was braid it all together and either secure it at the back or leave it to hang on the side like a ponytail.

To switch up the style a bit I left her hair braided together in the left side. Once I got to the right side I gathered hair and braided it together like this to get this look

I then added beads. These are glow in the dark beads and our first time using them. They don't glow too much at night unless you "charge" them by putting them close to light beforehand.

side braided style with braid out

Have you ever sat down to do a style and had no idea where you were going with it? Squirmy kid? Frustrated? Didnt turn out how you wanted? AND didnt want to even bother taking it out after all the time spent? Well thats what happened to us with this style!

The idea came from thisstyle by natural-hair-care-info.com

Check out boysandgirlsnaturalcurls to see the original blooper style!

Here is how we fixed it

kid's braided hairstyle

Im not sure what to call this style. It can be similiar to a braided headband (if its braided closer to the front) or even a horizontal mohawk. its very similiar.

After its all braided up you can either wrap it around in the back and secure with a bobbypin or let it hang like a side pony (:

cute girl hairstyle: easy, simple braids with ponytail

Products used: crocheted headband, rubberbands (dipped in olive oil), bobby pins, rat tail comb (for parting), boar brush, Queen Helene royal curl curling cream, Eco Styler gel, Bee Mine luscious balanced moisturizer

For this cute girl hairstyle, I first parted the hair from ear to ear. I sectioned off the top half and made four cornrows and secured it with a rubberband (dipped in olive oil to prevent breakage when removing).

I then randomly parted sections in the back to braid. I had about 6-8 braids total. Each braid was moisturized with Bee Mine luscious balanced moisturizer and then heavily coated with QHRCCSC. I did this because I wanted a nice braid out for the back. I left it in for a few hours and when I removed it, the braid out was wonderful! I wish the pics really showed how great it looked but it didnt get captured esp since I had to put it into a pony.

Initially I wanted the four cornrows and then the braidout along with the crocheted headband but it didnt work out. The bow wouldnt work with me so I decided to improvise and do the ponytail and just wrap the headband around her pony to get the final look.

I wrapped the headband around her pony and bobby pinned the bow so it would stay in to place. I then used Ecostyler gel to slick down her sides and used a boar brush to get the pony smooth.

Cute and easy girl hairstyle!

half braided mohawk to the side and twisted

she did not wear the style like this. I just moved the bottom braids to the back to show what was done. It looks funky like this but the bottom braids were pulled to the side thats why it was parted diagonally.

Let me start off by apologizing for the lack of posts lately. I know I've been slacking. Also excuse the weak post titles. Im obviously not good at naming styles.

I did this style about a week and a half ago and really enjoyed the outcome of it. If you do not know already, I LOVE mohawks. It is def our go-to style when I draw a blank on what to do. I have always wanted to do a mohawk that fell to the side. Here is what we came up with. On clean, detangled hair these are the steps I took to achieve this look.

Products used: shea moisture curl enhancing smoothie, eco styler gel, widetooth comb, pintail comb (for parting), rubberbands dipped in olive oil (for beads and causes less breakage when removing).

1.) I parted the hair in half from ear to ear and tied the bottom half off.
2.) I parted a section in the front to braid two cornrows as bangs and lay on the left side (opposite of the way I wanted the mohawk to lay).
3.) I then made a part on the right side of the top portion of the hair so that the mohawk would be right sided instead of straight down the middle.
4.) I had about a total of seven braids per side when I was done. The braids were pretty skinny and since I was going to be adding beads I did not want to weigh each strand down with it so I decided to grab braids across from eachother and twist them together. I did the same with the bangs. This made the strands thicker and I felt better about adding beads to it.
5.) For the remaining bottom section I made six braids diagonally. I did the same to these as well by twisting two braids together.

cute girl hairstyle: easy braids

Isn't this style adorable?

Read below to see how we achieved this easy style which includes just braids!

1.) Start on clean, detangled hair.
2.) Part hair in half from ear to ear and tie off the top section.
3.) Part the bottom portion in half vertically so that you have two even halves.
4.) Start with one section and part it in half again diagonally to form the above look. Repeat with the other side. Tie each individual (should be four) section with a rubberband (dipped in olive oil to cause less breakage when removing) or ouchless ponytail holders.
5.) Separate an individual section into two even sections. Braid each section and then twist around eachother. Then tie off with a rubberband. Repeat with all sections.
6.) Return to top section and properly fix to your liking.

excuse the scalpy look, the way I edited the pic made it look this way -__- I promise its not like that, really!

And you're done! Its that easy! Its an easy style!, easy braids! Since we were in a hurry and needed a quick style I chose to leave the top part in just a cute ponytail puff. If you have extra time you can do the entire head with this look. As you can see we also accessorized the ends with beads. You can choose to leave it plain, add beads, barrettes or both! Anything will look cute with this style. I love how this is a really easy style and doesn't require much skills so ANYBODY can do it. Its just simple braids twisted together to create this cute girl style.

Mohawk and twists on natural hair for kids

For this month's hair carnival, we were paired up with a partner and both recreated a style from one another. My partner was the wonderful Charlotte over at Charlottes Avenue. This girl has flat twists DOWN! This is the style I chose to recreate. It is a mohawk with twists.

To see our original post on this style with more pictures and info you can view it at Snagged Style: Charlotte's Avenue

I couldn't choose just one style to recreate because there are so many talented mommy's out there. Another style I chose to do was from Mainly Braids.

Here is another style I recreated Snagged Style: Keyative Styles. Fan Feature from someone else that is similar to the style from Mainly Braids. To see the GORGEOUS braid out from this style view our post onThe first best braid out we have had

criss-cross braids and layers

I had no style in mind when I came up with this and I'm happy with the way it turned out. This was also the first time doing layer braids.

The back was done in 2 layers of braids going sideways with beads at the ends.

this was the top tied off.

the ends were finished off with two 3-strand twists. These pics were done a few days later and the 3-strand twists were falling apart :(

snagged style: keyative style's fan feature

This following style was inspired by one of Keyative Style's fan feature. I did not come out exactly like hers (especially the front) but I tried my best! I really loved the idea and decided to try it. Here is what we came up with

Stay tuned for the gorgeous braid out we got from this style.

Crooked parts with box braids and beads hair style

I'm not exactly sure how I felt about this style. I didn't know where I was going with it and it just has a little bit of everything. I started off by making crooked parts on the side of her hair like this:

I didn't want to continue because I felt like it looked boyish?

Then I said nevermind and thought I like it..ill leave these braids in and leave the rest out like above. But then I kept going. I braided the top part and sectioned randomly. Here is the top part.

The back I had NO idea what to do and finally decided on box braids (our first time) . Here was the final look with beads.

In all, the style lastes pretty long and could have lasted longer if I didn't take it out. I think it lasted long and kept up because the braids were so small. I loved the beads, too!
