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".

I've had a few people ask for me to show a video doing the messy buns or other things. If you look to the right at the list "labels" & click on tutorials, it will show you all of the videos I have done so far, which has the messy buns on it. 

So for today - here's what we came up with: 

The part is a little different from what I normally would do. Instead of a zig-zag part, make it look like boxes. Pull into pigtails. 
Tuck under the pigtails, going the opposite way that you normally would, so the hair sits on top of the knot. 
Then start pinning the pigtails under so you don't see any of the ends. 
Spread the hair with your fingers & spray to hold.
