Frenchbraid headband

All I did was section off the front area of hair... I used her natural part to separate them because her hair is only just 2" below her shoulders.  You could also part in the middle.

I started on her right - I bound each braid separately first... with longer hair, you could remove those later, but with hers, it was necessary to leave them in.


She loved this one

Okay, so Ruthie was NOT having the blowdryer and her hair will NOT curl with an iron if it's not dry... so please keep in mind that this was INTENDED to be done with curls.

Also, I'd been sick and NOT gone to the store... (though ironically as I sit here today, I have a piece of ribbon that would have gone PERFECTLY... it came on my mother's day bouquet of paper flowers that she gave me for Mother's day)... so I will add pics ASAP of this done with curls and ribbon to match the dress.

All I did were two braids, which I brought back to connect together... they could be braided any amount down the head... and could be brought together at a different point.  The intention was to use a ribbon to tie over the rubber band (or, if I had bought ribbon, perhaps braid it in), but there you are.
