This style can take between 1 1/2-2 hours. I split her hair down the middle (remember, your part will not be visisble so it doesn't have to be perfect) and tied one side off, then I started cornrowing. I rotated from a straight cornrow, to criss cross cornrows until I got to the top, then I started on the other side. Remember, if you do not know how to cornrow, check out this website. I learned how to cornrow from their simple instructions!
And of course, if you have rockstar hair, then you have to have a rockstar outfit and rockstar attitude! lol I took A up to this graffiti Madagascar themed wall and took a few pictures of her. It was definitely a fun day.
It's Mohawk/Frohawk week, so if you have any pictures of your kiddo rockin' a mohawk/frohawk send them in TODAY, January 23rd so I can submit them for Hair Share!
The drawing for the winner of the Curly Q's Giveaway will be soon!
I love this one right here. I did my second son's hair the same way last october but I braided his to the ends and put beads on them, I forgot to take pictures of it.
ReplyDeleteAwesome....D is going to try the mohawk next on Nati, he just braided it so hopefully we can get it in before the week ends. (YES, I'm not going to learn to braid. Haha) But I learned to bead somewhat...haha.
ReplyDeleteoh, no. i also have to worry about whether my girls want to be rockstars. say it ain't so. i've got enough things to worry about. of course, this is a wonderful hairstyle for those little rockers.
ReplyDeleteI am loving this....I so love the dress too...custome made???? How long did you keep this style in?? Along with keeping the curls looking fresh??
ReplyDeleteVery cute style. I saw a little girl who had a similar style at an event I went to this weekend.
ReplyDeleteSO incredibly adorable! I have to say... your cornrows and braids are so inspiring! I tried them on my little one's hair this week! Not the mowhawk style, just the braids... check it out if you want :) http://curlyqshairdos.blogspot.com/2010/01/cornrows.html (not trying to advertise - just wanting to share!)
ReplyDeleteThank you for the inspiration! I still have lots to learn from you (as you can see from my first attempt! :) It's so much fun!)
I'm 14 years old and I have have similar to your daughter's and I recently got this style and it was inspired by your site. Thanks, I love this blog even though I'm older than your daughter it still gives me great ideas and I try a lot of the products you review. Just incase you wanted to see mohawk here's the link. http://imahairoutkast.blogspot.com/2010/04/my-hair.html
