I just wanted to let everyone know the story of The Wright Hair. I am fairly new to blogging about hair but I have been doing my little girls hairstyles since the day my oldest daughter was born. The first thing out of the doctors mouth was I hope you ordered a girl full of hair. When my 2nd daughter arrived we were not so lucky with the hair genes. She has thin short hair. It was with the frustrations I had trying to do my 2nd ones hair that I decided to start this blog. I figured if I struggled this much there must be others struggling too. I am a working mom and getting my girls ready every morning is the best time of the day for me. This is a time we get to bond without other distractions. Right now my girls and I are enjoying our time together. I am sure it will only be a short time before my oldest wants to do her own hair. But for now we invite you to join us on the Wrights Journey through hair. Because of being a working mom, sometimes we will do fancy dos and sometimes quick dos, other times the do's are dont's but we welcome everyone to come along for the ride.

Nicole Richie HairStyle

This style was taken from Nicole Richie on Fashion Star TV Show.

First start by making a high ponytail
Then take a small amount of hair and wrap it around the ponytail holder I secured it with a bobbie pin

Then Fishtail braid the hair all the way to the end. (remember a fishtail is 2 strands of hair)

Secure the end with an elastic

Fish Tail Side Ponytail

Take and comb the hair as if you were making a simple side ponytail then split the hair into 2 and make a very short fish tail braid I pulled about 10 times is all on the braid..  Then secure with an elastic. 
I put a few big ringlets in her ponytail to finish off the style.

Fish Tail Wrap

As my daughter is getting older she wants more grown up styles here is one that turned out really cute.
I started with making her far lateral part.  Then I made a fish tail braid on the side of her head with the least amount of hair.  As you can see below it is french fish tailed (if that is what you call it)  then I finished fish tail braiding all the way to the end of her hair.  ***you need to braid the hair long enough that it reaches the other side of her head. 
Once the braid is finished secure it with an elastic. 
Drape the braid across the back of her head and end it above her opposite ear.  Pull the top hair up and secure with bobbie pins the end of the fish tail braid.  As shown below.  Pull the top hair down over to hide the elastic and bobbie pins.  ***if you cross the bobbie pins they stay in much better***

We then swooped the front top of her hair and added a flower over the top to ensure the bobbie pins were hidden.

Fish Tail Bangs Back

Quick simple and really easy.  This is a simple fishtail braiding the bangs back as shown below.

                                 I just continued to fish tail braid all the way down.

Wednesday

1/2 Fish Tail Braid

I apologize for only having one picture, it was one of those days with lack of cooperation.
So I will do my best to explain.
I did a fish tail braid (for those of you who don't know what a fish tail braid is.  You use 2 strands instead of 3).  I braided all her sides back and then secured with an elastic.

FishTail Braids

This is a very simple and quick hairstyle. 
First make a part,  I made hers with a slight diagonal at the front of her head and curved it to the middle of her head going all the way down.  Then pull each side into a low ponytail. 
Once the ponytail is in place then fish tail braid it.  For those of you who don't know what a fish tail is you braid with 2 strands of hair instead of 3.
Fish tail braid both ponytails and then I took the new sports ribbon (you can use any ribbon you want or have already)  and I tied the ribbon around the front of her head as shown below.
