Half Up Half Down
If your little girl has long, rich hair, that gives you plenty of opportunities in terms of styling. Use the top hair to style a rolled bun and the curling wand to create a stunning look with loads of volume.
Also, if you’re aiming for even more volume in the crown area, use a micro crimping iron for the roots only.
Two Ponytails with Bangs
All kids look adorable, but certain hairstyles suit them just like a glove. These will make them look even more cute and irresistible. And the two high ponytails with straight bangs make no exceptions.
Top Rolled Bun
This simple hairstyle is one of the easiest to create and is ideal for both little girls and women. A high-top bun looks wonderful if you also spare a few locks from the corners of the forehead and the fringe area.
Curly One Sided Hairstyle
Dealing with tight curls is not an easy thing to do. Get your little angel a proper haircut that won’t give her hair the shape of a triangle.
We recommend you to go for a layered kids hairstyle. Flip the top on one side, and your little girl will look like a cute doll.
Braided Bangs with Curls
This hairstyle for kids is so glamorous and perfect if you want your girl to look radiant and incredibly beautiful.
Use the French braiding technique to knit the bangs going towards the ear. Take your magic hair wand and curl only half of the hair. She will look like a tiny angel!
One-Sided Top Pony
If your want your straight girl’s hair to gain more volume without applying styling products or ironing the hair, we have a natural method that will really help.
During night, braid the hair and secure the knits with an elastic. In the morning, unbraid it and the hair will keep that natural wave.
Bow Bun
When your girl has rich long hair, it is easy to create this amazing bow bun on top of the head. Slightly comb the top on one side and back and tie the mane in a big regular pony, leaving a tail.
Split this bun into two pieces, take that tail from the back, and place it between the two sections. Secure everything with bobby pins and use styling products to make the whole hairstyle look perfect.
Pastel Hair
It is not recommended to dye your kid’s hair starting at a young age, but you must know there are a lot of sprays and hair dyes with no ammonia and other damaging chemicals that you can use for your daughter’s hair.
If she loves pastel hair, buy sprays that you can use to create a unicorn or rainbow look. Don’t worry; these sprays go off after just one wash.
Swirling Cornrows With A Statement Hair Bun
As said earlier, cornrows can be achieved in all sorts of different styles and this beautiful hairdo is just a true depiction of that.
It boasts of a swirling pattern on top that is achieved by starting the cornrows at one side and making it go swirling around the head to the crown area.
Similarly, start other parallel cornrows just behind where you started the initial pattern and make these go swirling to the crown as well.
Finally, secure the look with a statement hair bun achieved right at the crown. It will look amazing and will surely stun everyone who looks at your little girl’s style.
Side Parted Open Cornrows Style
This beautiful cornrows variation is a perfect look to achieve for black girls. The hairstyle boasts of a side parted look and on either side of the part the hair is braided into beautiful cornrows at different angles.
Towards the longer side sweep, it’s achieved in a horizontal pattern making the hair fall over on the side eventually.
On the shorter end, you have to start braiding it in a vertical pattern making the hair to go all the way back and join the rest of the layers that have been started somewhere around the crown area.
So, it’s all about patterns and if you are able to pull it off to perfection, you have a trendy hairstyle ready for your little girl to flaunt.
