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.

Braids, Ringlets, and Ribbons

Everyday my daughter asks for full body pictures while I am trying to take hair pictures I told her I would post this full body picture for her.

Start by making your 3 french braids across the front of her head as shown in previous posts.
Then make ringlets in all of her hair.
Take a small ribbon and weave it in and out of her braids on both sides.  Tie the ribbons around the ponytail.

Below is the top view of her hair.
For the ringlets I used this curling iron below it saves me so much time and the ringlets stay in all day.

Wacky or Crazy Hair Day W/ St Patricks Day colors

Today at my daughter's school was wacky or crazy hair day. With it also being St Patricks day is why we used green pipe cleaners and green elastics.  When I think of Wacky or Crazy hair Dr Seuss came to mind so the ideas are from him.

So the only reason we started with a braid down the front center is because she is growing out her bangs and I wanted them to stay out of her face. 
Next I made a crazy part ponytail on the left side near her ear. I attached a pipecleaner with the elastic as shown below.
Below is how I attached the pipe cleaner with the elastic.
I made another ponytail with a crazy part on the crown of her head.  (Total you will have 4 ponytails)
Below is another one of the ponytails on the right side of her head.
The last ponytail is on the bottom of her head.  Once all the ponytails were in place I wrapped the pipe cleaners around the ponytails elastics

Below is how I made the pipe cleaners curly I just wrapped them around my finger before I put them around her hair.
Below shows how I started to wrap the hair in the pipe cleaner.  The goal is to have her hair in the middle of the curl.
Below shows how the pipe cleaner looks around the hair.
Once the pipe cleaners are on the hair.  I wrapped the hair and pipe cleaner around the ponytail. Make sure the pipe cleaners you used to wrap the ponytail is sticking out through the middle of the ponytail.  I curled these around in the holes.
Below shows how to wrap the hair around the ponytail.  Make sure you do the ponytail on the crown of her head last it is the only one that will be different.
For the crown ponytail wrap the pipe cleaners as you did the other ones.  But instead of wrapping it around the ponytail you are going to make a heart shape.  By crossing the ends at the base of the ponytail as show below.  I left the remaining out to hang down loose.
Below is a close up of the wrapped heart shape.
Below is the side view of her hair.
Below is what it looked like from the back.

St Patricks Day Rockin Bobbie Pins and French Braid Fun

Tons of fun with Braids and Rockin Bobbie Pins for St Patricks Day

Start by making a french braid down the center of her head as shown below.
Then make a french braid up her head toward the center braid.  Do this on both sides of her head as shown below.
You are going to continue making french braids around her head angled towards the center of her head.  Below is the part of her hair
Below shows the bottom back of her neck she is kneeling to get the bottom 3 french braids done.
Below is the french braid above and below her ear.
All in all you have 3 french braids acorss the front of her head and 3 at the bottom of her head.  Once these are done put them all in a ponytail.
Then make a messy bun or make ringlets to give a more sophisticated look.
If you want to turn this into a St. Patricks Day Hairstyle then make some fun Rockin Bobbie pins and I just slide them into different areas on her hair.

Make it or Break it More Lauren Fun Braids to Ponytail

We are sad that Make it or Break it is done for awhile.  Lauren has the cutest hairstyles.  So here is another one.

I started with a small french braid that goes back to the crown of her head.  Secure it with an elastic.
Next french braid up both sides of her hair as show below.  When done with the braids you should have 3 braids that look like you have the front and sides pulled up.  Then secure all the hair into a high ponytail.
Below is what the 3 finished braids should look like.
Once all the hair is secured in a high ponytail I wrapped her hair around the ponytail.
A fast, cute, and simple hairstyle.

Braids, Ribbons, and Ponytail Fun

I apologize for not having step by step instructions on this hairstyle.  I often times do my daughters hair without any idea of how it is going to end. This was one of those hairstyles.  My daughter is growing out her bangs so I started with a small triangle poof for the front. 
Then I made 2 upside down braids.  (upside down meaning I braided them from the bottom of her head up towards the top of her head.)
Next I took all of her hair and put it into a ponytail and made ringlets.   
Then I took a pink ribbon and shoe lace tied it up her braids and then wrapped it around her ponytail and made a small bow in the front on the left side of her ponytail.
Below is the side view of her hair.
The picture below is of the top of her hair.

Thursday

Braids to Sides Pulled Back

Make 2 small french braids across the front hairline.  Braid them all the way to the ends and secure with elastics.

Make a back comb on the crown of her head. Then take the both braids and pull them across the back of the hair and secure with a small bobbie pin.
I then removed the elastics and added more bobbie pins to secure.

Braid with Rockin Bobbie Pins

My daughter is going through I want quick hair so we decided to do a fun braid to keep her bangs out of her face and use one of our new Rockin Bobbie Pins taken from http://www.mom-stuff.com/.
I just did a simple frenchbraid across the front of her head and braided a little ways down.
Once the braid is done I curved it back and secured it with one of our cute rockin bobbie pins.
