Braided Cinnabun

Even though it's only the 16th, we're wearing green today

for school.  Since our school colours are green and gold,

it's pretty easy.  Using 2 Lady Idun hairsticks in a

braided cinnabun.

1st, make a ponytail.  I like to put it pretty high on the head,

there's alot of hair to put up, so a high pony keeps the hair

out of her way.

Next, braid the ponytail.  Finish it off with a small "rubber band"

so it won't be visible in the bun.

This is my favourite part!!! Wrap the braid around the ponytail

making a cinnabun...around and around and around....

When inserting a hairstick slide the stick through some hair on the

outside of the bun aiming away from the bun.  Grab hair on the

"outside" then angle the stick back in, run it through the bun

and out the other side.  I put a 2nd hairstick in the other side

making an X.  Today is gym class at school and we

want it to stay in.

The finished bun: A braided cinnabun

You can see the 2nd stick.

(Crazy what colours my camera turns her hair,

I think we have 4 different colours here.)

The nailpolish held up yesterday, no chipping and just a bit

of tip wear for an active girl.
