Springs

Here's a simple one that you're going to love! 
Give your princess her bath the night before you want to create your "Springs".
 
 After her bath you'll want to pull her hair into two piggies and Create a Hawser Braid out of each. 
 A Hawser Braid is made by twisting two Corkscrews together. 
Have her sleep in the Hawser Braids and in the morning her hair should be nice and dry.  (Hopefully... if not you can use a dryer to help it along.) 
 Now you can unravel your Hawser Braids and you should end up with 4 fun "Springs" on each side. 
 Of course, the perfect bow to top these off is a Korker bow!  :)
Korkers are made by wrapping Grosgrain ribbon around a dowel and popping them in an oven heated to 225 degrees for 25 minutes.
