and the back is squared ponies

Review.... Sidewinders

I have had the pleasure, of doing a product review on Sidewinders Hair Holders.This being my first official review i wanted it to be perfect. But perfection doesn't exist in the hair world. you just give it your best and hope for the best, or at least  learn what you would do diffierent if you have the oppurnity.

I was sooo excited when i got the package in the mail....

Since I have a boy, I really didn't think that I should add these babies to my arsenal, But i'm glad I did, they make perfect gifts and add pizazz, to most of the plain quick and easy hairstyles I have done.( But i am thinking about getting some black and clear ones to try on Tye, stay tuned for that post.

I was really excited when i received my package in the mail. Shipping was extraordinarily QUICK... I mean in a matter of Days, its like processing time didn't exist

So far my favorite quick and easy style with the sidewinders, was to use as a sort of bridge between ponytails.

Even though sidewinders are easy to put on, I had trouble on my first attempt, but the second go around was perfect, and quick. It sure beats trying to put on 20 plus beads on a braid, even with an easy beader.

What I liked most about the sidewinders beside them being easy to put on the mix and matching you can do, is that, it kept, the children busy, while, i parted, detangled, and style the hair. I used the sidewinder hair holders on several children and each child had a blast twisting, retwisting and mix and matching the sidewinders. Which was a blessing, because it can be trying and hard at times to style a young children s hair, and we try many tricks and treats to try and keep them busy and calm. by their selves the side winders did the trick, with out the movie, the candy and the toys.... That in it self is a reason to buy them.

I had so much fun playing with these and trying to find fun and creative styles

you can buy them here at their website

who knew something so cute, could come from the inspriration on an Rv.

Finger Curls on Boys

 So for the rest of the week Tye is wearing finger coils/curls in his hair... it was SO simple and easy to do.I have done this style on Tye before, but he was younger, and this go around since i did them smaller i was worried about him looking too much like a girl... I am glad to say that was not the case, and i loved the results, enjoy the picture

So i started off, with dirty dirty hair... (i was too lazy to wash it) and i spritz it my oil and water mix ( olive oil, grape seed oil, peppermint oil, and coconut oil) and i decided to give Shea Moistures Organic Coconut and Hibiscus Curl and Style Milk a try again, it wasn't a go for me, but i liked it on Tye's hair ( i may need to try it without the mix to see how it does)

can i saw we are both excited about his lenght, ( now its time to work on mine )

When each section was moisten with my mix, I trilled each section around my finger, to achieve the coil look. This is also know as Finger Coils, tightly curly method, comb coils/curls and it can also be achieve doing by straw curls

half way done, love the way it looks

2 days later

after a second day of playing hard

 on the way to the nail shop for pedicure, little boys need nice toes too, ( and Tye's toes, be looking jacked a lot of the time :o)

we will be defiantly doing this style more often, stay tuned for updates? maybe daily, well see

and this style could defiantly be accomplished on people of all ages, its an cute infant style for baby boys or firls, toddler girl and boy styles, preschool age and up... and it would be perfect for a special occaision, just add a biw or cute hair clips for a girl or a awesome hat, tie, or sun glasses for boys

Little Girl Twisted Faux (Mo) Hawk.... Protective Style

So if you haven't heard Kandyland Kurls is having a 3 month Protective Style Challenge, and i thought i join in with some of my little Kiddies, But only Tye and I or Officially in it.

 So this style is a Braid and Twisty Faux Hawk Combo, that i did on my Shadow, its perfect for little girls big girls and if you have a infant baby girl with enough hair this would work for them too

I started off with talking out her old  ponytail style you can see it here

after taking her hair done I parted it into 5 sections and braided each of the 4 sections towards the middle part and twisted the ends

for the top sections I teased her Hair to give it some Umph and added a rubber band, its also called a pompadour But be careful if you decided to do it, because it can cause major tangles, if done too much or not properly.

and twisted the hair  where the rubberband started

a close up of the front

the way i parted,

I love the shrinkage of the hair

I tried getting a picture of her hair and all the kiddies and to join in :o)

and Tye is infamous for jumping in pictures....

How this post helps, stay tuned for the boy version of it, coming up next

I hope this style last at least a week and a half, the ponytails lasted 2 weeks so we'll see

and as always if you're not doing the challenge it is easy to customize the hair style with beads barrettes bows and any other hair accessories
