Bubble Braid

While she is growing her bangs out, there are some things that she needs to be able to do with her hair pulled back.  I just pull out some of the shorter front bangs and curl them.


 This post is a flashback to the 80's.  Anyone who watched "Saved by the Bell" has seen this in it's many variations.  Sophie has been asked to perform in our county fair and has a dance rehearsal today (obviously, this was done in the middle of the summer and scheduled to post later) after a couple of months of not dancing.  She has a tendency to play with her hair if it's loose and this helps remedy that.

Growing Out Bangs...Twist


Most of the time Sophie only wants a ponytail.  There are only so many things you can do with a ponytail when you are growing out those blasted bangs.  Here we have a twist to a low side ponytail.  Super easy and off the neck for hot summer days.  




If you haven't mastered this twist, here is a link to an old tutorial.

Growing Out Bangs...Triple Dutch Braids

My sweet niece came to spend the day with us.  

A little story about her.  Several years ago she found scissors, and we all know that NEVER ends well.  Her hair was in the process of growing out and she had some bangs that she wanted trimmed.  Well, my sister wouldn't do it "RIGHT THEN" so she found another set of scissors and took matters into her own hands.  

When my Sophie originally wanted "no more bangs", she thought it meant we had to cut them off.  We reminded her that is what my niece did and Sophie remembered and changed her tune.  

So little missy has been growing her hair out.  I have taken it upon myself to be in charge of her hair.  She is good with it, I am good with it and my little sister who is self-described as "not girly at all" is good with it.  

Here is another little "growing out the bangs do.  Because her hair is at different lengths, there are some wispys with the bang ends.  With the finished style, you can hardly tell.
