Lacing With Wrapping Hairstyle

Just a friendly reminder: Please don't take the pictures of my daughter and post them on your blogs or other sites without my permission, they are copyrighted. If you want to use a hairstyle, feel free. Just don't take the pictures. Thanks!!

Now, back to hair. I've been excited to post this one, it was fun to do!

This is a style that has been done and re-done. I'm pretty sure the original "lattice ponytails" started on this site. This is just a twist on it, literally. So, you start by making two ponies in the front. In each pony, take out a small piece of hair and braid it. I did rope braids, you can do whatever. (If you don't know how to do a rope braid, click on the link for a video tutorial there!)

Wrap the braids around the ponies on each side and secure with elastics at the bottoms.
Take the two ponies, cross them and add them in with the next set. Do more small braids and wrap around these ponies. Cross them again and add them to the last set of ponies. Continue with the braid wrapping on the last set. You could either leave it like this.......
Or, pull the ends back up to your last set of ponies, secure with an elastic and curl the ends.

That looks like fun! I did something simmilar yesterday by doing the "puffy braid" but twisting each section as I went I got a few compliments when we went to Costco so that made me happy. I would e-mail you pictures but my camera is not operating at the moment :(
