What do you get when you cross 33 yrs of living, 13 yrs of marriage, one HOT husband, five adorable daughters and one handsome son, and tons of great family and friends? Pretty much the sum total of who I am!!
The day we posted the Daddy ‘Do, we receive a “Thank You” video response on YouTube from Sean, a single dad with two absolutely beautiful little girls!
In the video, he shows the Four-Twist Ponytail and one of our High Bun hairstyles on his daughter! I think he did an amazing job! I loved the cute “Thank youuuuuuuu!!!” from the girls at the end!
Thank you for being such a wonderful daddy, Sean! You are an inspiration to us all! {Everyone be sure to comment either here or on YouTube!}

Note from Mindy: Sean graciously allowed us to embed his video for you all to enjoy!
It is time for another Daddy ‘Do hairstyle, a style that is so easy a dad can do it!
This incorporates a high ponytail that is then separated into four equal parts. Each section is then divided again, the two strands twisted into each another tightly, then secured with a rubber band. Repeat the same for the other three sections of the ponytail.
Now we all know the above to be a Rope Braid cheat for dads. With a rope braid, you can actually tightly twist the two strands independently and then twist them around eachother, securing with a rubber band. For this tutorial, we simplified the process so that the dads are not spending 20-30 minutes on the style.
My daughter is only 11 and she does this style on herself in just a few minutes. She prodded my husband to see if he could do it, and the tutorial below was the result!
The best part for dads, is that by leaving the style in overnight… he can take out the twists the next day and have a fun curly ponytail {2nd Day ‘Do}! Enjoy!
Items Needed: Rat-tail comb, brush, water bottle, 1 hairband, four clear elastics, hairspray and accessories (if desired)
Time Requirement: 5-10 minutes
Happy Hairdoing!
{As awkward as it isfor my husband to film hairstyles like this, because he has big hands and is not used to doing hair all the time, it is just as awkward for me to film the tutorial! Watching back the video, I was horrified to notice that I spent more time watching my hubby do the style than watching the viewfinder on the camera! My filming was way off! Sorry!}
Hi Ladies, I think you will love this one! This was the very first Daddy ‘Do hairstyle that my husband filmed (right before the Simple Braid tutorial we posted recently).
The style is really cute, and is actually one submitted by a follower on Facebook. What is unique about this hairstyle is that it looks far more complicated than it is!
It gives a similar look of the Fishtail Braid without having to spend alot of time doing the actual braid. All it takes is three simple flips and you are done!

Side View…
The filming of this hairstyle tutorial absolutely cracked me up, because it REALLY shows how funny yet sweet it can be to have a daddy do a daughter’s hair!
First, notice how gentle he is being while trying to flip the hair, then notice how he confuses himself on how to put in a hairband… not once, but TWICE! As he misses it the second time, check out my daughter’s face! She could barely hold back her laughter (and you can hear me snickering as well)!
Items Required: Rat-tail comb, brush, Topsy Tail tool, spray bottle, three hair bands, hairspray, and accessory (if desired).
Time Requirement: Five minutes.
My hubby was proud of the outcome and so was I! If you also like this hairstyle… be sure to let us know!
