Tween Hairdo: Simply Fun Combo

This hairstyle is nice because it can be a fancy "dressy do" or a casual fun do. Use it for a fancy family party, church, or even just a regular school day. It can also be used on long hair or short hair (I have done it on long hair here).

Items Needed: Brush, comb, hairspray, 3-barrel curling iron, flat iron, curling iron, and 3 rubber bands.

Time Requirement: 15 minutes ***Could take longer if you get more elaborate**

Start with DRY hair. Part on the left. My daughter's hair is pretty much naturally straight so I just let it air dry. But if you have curly hair you may want to straighten it first...Now part a little section on the left and braid it (secure ends with rubber band)...Section off a little piece in the back of hair and braid it (also securing with rubber band)...Section off a piece in the front right of hair and braid (also securing with rubber band)...Now pick up a piece of hair next to each braid and *three-barrel* it (you will do three sections in total)...Now pick up a piece of hair on the other side of each braid and curl it with a curling iron. You will do between 3-5 curls. Just fill in any blank areas...You will now have this. Obviously, the more sections you do... the longer it will take. But it can be really fun! The above picture was taken of "K" in the morning. Later that day after hiking and playing in the canyons, this is what she looked like (the hairdo held up really well!)...
