A Fancy UpDo

My little girlie went to a Fancy Nancy party last week & got to dress up in fancy clothes so I decided she had to have fancy hair with it. 
Start by sectioning out the hair & twisting it straight back. Add a bobby pin going forward to secure it. 
Go all the way around the head, sectioning, twisting & adding your pins. Then pull it all into a pony tail. 
Start to pin the hair by doing the flower bun.  But leave a portion out so that it hangs down underneath. 
I blow dried & curled what was hanging down
For her ribbon, I tied a bow & then put the bobby pin through the middle of it & insert it in the hair where you want it to go. 
Add the ribbon & spray to hold. We added glitter in her hair for some extra "fanciness".

Dear Jess, I have been a fan of your blog ever since I have been blogging. Sometimes little kids come over to my hause, and I LOVE to experiment these hairstyles on their hair. On New Year's Eve, my friends came over, and I had already memorized a lot of these. When I was finished the parents said, "Wow! It looks great! Thanks!" So Jess, I want to thank you!

Dear Jess, I started my own blog and I love your work. I would love it if you could add my blog as on of your "other hairblogs". www.hairbetweenmyfingers.blogspot.com

So glad I "googled" 'fancy nancy hairdos'! My 3yo daughter and I are going to a Fancy Nancy luncheon on Valentine's day and her all-on-length hair is just a perfect blank canvas for something super fun like the examples you've shown in your blog! Thank you!

Jess--

I added you in my links of fellow hair bloggers--I was hoping you would do the same--I know you are probably sick of these "other hair bloggers". I can see you already have one other comment asking for the same thing--

But I was just hoping you would take a look at mine. It's www.cutegirlshairstyles.blogspot.com

Thanks and sorry in advance! LOL
