    This is awesome! My two-year-old has extremely long and thick hair (down to her little bottom!!). This will be adorable on her. Thanks for sharing!

    Too cute! Kind of makes me wish I had a daughter but God sent me 7 boys.

    • Jean

      Wow! So awesome! God bless…

    • Kiwi

      Wow..Bless you!! As a mom of 2 I can’t imagine 7!! (Though I’m sure you have stories to tell that are epic!)

    • Lina (Hip's Modern Martha)

      Wow! That’s amazing – congrats!

    Cute idea! I’ll keep this concept in mind for the next crazy hair day. They had one a few weeks ago. I put about 10 braids in my daughters hair, but each braid used 2 strands of hair and 1 pipe cleaner (as the 3rd strand). It looked fun and colorful, and they could change, bend and move the braids all day. I’ll have to think of a non-holiday way to jazz up a bun for next time. Thank you!!!!!!!

      Clarification: a ponytail with 10 braids. πŸ™‚

    • Lina (Hip's Modern Martha)

      Oh that’s a cute idea for the braids! πŸ‘

    So cute! But what’s the secret to getting your daughter to keep this in her hair without messing it up after 5 min?!

    • Lina (Hip's Modern Martha)

      Haha I guess 8 is the age when it happens! It stayed all day and I guess the nose fell out a couple times but classmates helped put it back on lol πŸ˜€
