Sorry for the delay in posting, but I’m taking a long-needed vacation with my family to Las Vegas!!! I was so ready to get out of the snow and into the sun, Sun, SUN!

OK so here is the first of a few Easter hairdo’s. Remember that my goal in hairstyles is to make them fancy and fun, but easy and quick. I just don’t have time to spend an hour doing each girl’s hair! LOL! I gathered this idea from Dancing With The Stars last week.

Items Needed: brush, comb, hairspray, 2 rubber bands, and accessories.

Time Requirement: 10-15 minutes.

Begin by parting hair on the side where the natural part falls…

Now divide a small section of hair from that part down to the ear…

French braid this section LOOSELY. You don’t want a super tight braid. We are going for the more natural, soft look. Have your DD hold the braid…

Now section off another small piece of hair parallel to the first braid. French braid this one too. Have DD hold second braid too…

Now rat the hair on the top of her crown. This just adds a little dimension to the hair and prevents that slicked back look. You don’t have to do this step if you are really opposed to ratting.

Pull the remaining hair back into a side ponytail and secure with a rubber band. Twist the hair around the ponytail to create a bun and secure with a rubber band around the whole thing.

You will now have this.

Add a ribbon, flowers, or other accessories that match your DD’s cute Easter dress.
