the tool looks like this, which you can purchase from amazon or most beauty supply stores: (you can also make your own by cutting out the toe area from a sock and rolling it to form the donut.)

Festive Holiday Hair for girls

This post featured on babble shows how to do 12 easy and fancy holiday hairstyles for little girls.

Consider the following a holiday hair guide for the rest of us. The rest of us with so-so braiding skills, very little patience, or hard to style hair. There’s no reason our little girls shouldn’t be able to have fancy hair for the holidays. Rather than relying on long hair (something we don’t have) we rely on easy styles with simple embellishments anyone with desire and a hot glue gun can make and tailor to their own needs.

Using a few things at the store to put together some fun holiday embellishments, we could have gone crazy with holiday peacocks, Santa hats and tiny little wrapped presents sticking out of ponytails, but we decided to keep it simple. Head to the holiday section of any craft store and see what inspires you. Here is what was purchased for these hairdos:

3 plastic headbands -$3
Bag of little satin roses – $3.50
Thin red, gold and green ribbon – $1 each
Thick red satin ribbon – $2
4 candy cane shaped ornaments – $2
Glittery snowflake ornament (with 3 snowflakes) – $1.50
What we already had – Hair ties, bobby pins, plastic sewing needle, tail comb, spray bottle and a hot glue gun.

Make A Sleek Parted Ponytail For Your Hair

Steps :
1. Brush your hair all the way through to get all the knots out and make it really smooth.
2. Create a deep side part. The deeper the better (which means: the more to the side, the better). If you have bangs, it's ok, you can use some product like a pomade or extra hairspray keep them slicked down.
3. Comb your hair into a smooth ponytail. You can make it whatever height you want. This summer, I am loving ponies that sit right smack in the middle of your head.
4. Secure with a rubber band. Make sure it's as tight as you can get it, you don't want your ponytail slipping down halfway through the day!
5. Hide the rubber band with a bit of hair. (I like to do this, especially if I'm going out to dinner or drinks and want to look a little fancier.) Just take a bit of hair from the underside of the ponytail and wrap it around the band. Pin in place (with bobby pins) underneath the ponytail to secure.
6. backcombed the end of the ponytail to make it look messier.

Lovely Side Ponytail Tutorial

How To Style :

Step 1 : Start by curling your hair to match the texture of the ponytail extension this particular piece comes curled.
Step 2 : Section your hair from ear to ear and place it into a small bun or ponytail. Clip the top section out of the way for Step 4.
Step 3 : Place the base of your drawstring pony over your bun or ponytail and pull the elastic band to tightly secure. Open the small clip located on the top, comb it over your hair, and then snap it closed.
Step 4 : Unclip the top section from Step 2 and taking the tip of your teasing brush or comb, prep a small section to tease.
Step 5 : Start at the crown and pull up a 1-2 inch section – the smaller the section the more volume you will create.
Step 6 : Every time you backcomb spray a little bit of hairspray so that it holds the hair longer.
Step 7 : Carefully use your brush to smooth down any fly-a-ways.
Step 8 : Wrap smaller sections of the top around the base of the ponytail attachment and secure with bobby pins.
Step 9 : To finish it off, pull sections of the secured top up to reach the desired height and look.

Step 8 : Wrap the other braid around your head in the other direction and over top the other braid. Tuck the end of the top braid under the bottom braid.
