The Ponytail Veil

Hi guys, this has been a fun week of tutorials for our house and we've been extra busy.  This week's hairstyle is an oldie but a goodie. The Ponytail Veil has been around for ages but it's such an amazing hairstyle we wanted to share it with you. It breaks our 5 minute rule, but it's still well under 10 minutes . When we did this hairdo - the most popular comment we received was that many people hated taking the hairbands out again at the end, so we've included a SUPER easy way to remove the hairbands with an appliance you probably have lying around at home, or you'll easily find at a newsagent or stationary store for a couple of bucks - so be sure to watch the hairstyle right to the end.
  We'll also be building on this hairstyle next week to create an even more exciting hairdo - so stay tuned til next week and have fun with this one :-)

Pigtail Braid

Hi everyone, we've had a great time doing hair in the Rapunzel's house lately.  This week's Tutorial is the Pigtail Braid.  As you can see it's a braid made from two pigtails, but the effects are really rather special.
We've had such fun with this hairstyle and it has fast become a favourite for our back to school hairdo collection. Like all our hairstyles it can be done in under 5 minutes, but still looks rather special.  You can wear it long and luscious, but we love it dressed up for school with ribbons.  It suits medium, long and extra long hair.  You're bound to get heaps of great comments with this one...

Twisty Tails

Hey Guys, check out our latest video. We've been having fun again and this time we found something we think you'll really like. This is a great hairdo for little-ones, or for when you just want something a bit fun. It works on hair that is long enough to put into pig tails.  My Big Rapunzel loves this new style and has asked for it again and again.  It's nothing tricky, but it is super fun.  Let us know what you think.. is it cute or just silly?

Ribbon Braid-let

Sometimes the hardest thing about doing these video's is not actually the hairstyles themselves but coming up with names for them LOL.  It's a funny name we know, but "The Ribbon Braid-let" is about as close as we could think to describing it... If you come up with a better name, leave us a comment below and we'll change it.  This hairstyle is a continuation of the "Ribbon Braid" we did last week, but with a lovely twist using the micro-braiding. We first saw this in a picture on Pinterest, but noticed there was no video for it, so we couldn't wait to show you how it's done and share it with you.. we hope you like it as much as we do. Have fun with this one...

The Ribbon Braid

Did you like last week's 4 Stranded Round Braid?  This week, we're carrying on the theme. This Ribbon braid uses the same technique, but you use the ribbon as two strands of the 4 strand braid.  The effect is quite dramatic as the ribbon winds through the braid in a streamlined way, producing a completely different looking braid. Check out the video to see how we enhanced the braid even more.  These braids have been around for awhile, but the video breaks it down and shows you slowly and simply how you can create this look for yourself.  We'll be back again next week with another great variation, but in the mean time... have fun with this one.
