Woven Criss-Crosses

I should apologize in advance for these pictures because I took them after my princess had been playing all day instead of right after I got her hair done. The hair looks much messier after some time in the McDonald's Play Land. :) First you want to start with a crown of 5 elastics around the front of the hairline. Divide the hair from each elastic into 4 sections. Separate 2 sections to each side and weave them through hair from the next elastic. Attach the woven hair together with a second row of 5 parallel elastics. Then you can combine the remaining hair into a ponytail, braid or bun.

Waterfall Braid

This one is a bit more tricky but it's so pretty and worth learning. You start just like you do a normal French Braid but as you go through each "cycle" of the braid you'll want to drop the bottom section out and just grab a new portion of hair to braid in. We did this on both sides and then combined the two braids in the back and added a flower clip. Hopefully that makes a bit of sense, this is a confusing one to learn but it gets much easier with practice.

Criss Cross Applesauce

Do you ever get bored with the usual straight Puffy Braids? Here's a little spin you can put on them for a different look. Start your top two elastics like you would in a normal Puffy Braid. Remember to evenly section the hair as you work your way down. Instead of going straight down with the hair, criss cross the strand to make an "X".

Woven Pull-Throughs

The picture is actually meant to show the Pull-Throughs on top of her head, but you can enjoy the glamorous corn teeth as well. :)
