The Princess's highway braids. And a toothless smile. :)

Actually, I am not quite sure what to call these braids. I was going for more of a patchwork-look, but when I was done, Ally said The Princess's head looked like a highway. I'm not sure if that's because of the crazy spaces between her braids, or because of the style itself, but "Highway Braids" kindof stuck. Although I'm kindof sad my patchwork idea did not work out the way I wanted it to....but I will be trying it again soon, as soon as I can come up with a better idea of how to execute it. :)

Products used:

Spray bottle with water for detangling

 Shea Moisture's Curl Milk as a leave-in conditioner

Shea Moisture's Curl Enhancing Smoothie for hold

 At first, I had intended to keep the braids out...but of course The Princess's super thin, straight hair was unraveling before my very eyes...so I ponied it up with an ouch less band and stuck our homemade flower in there.

Now for the toothless smile:

Looking at the picture now, I see that you can hardly tell. But The Princess lost her 2 front teeth over the last 2 days. They were both super loose, and the first one kindof just fell out. The second one fell out while she and Li'l Bit were wrestling (yes, my girls wrestle....a LOT.) in the living room. Li'l Bit was oh so very proud that she knocked her sister's tooth out. And she told EVERYONE all about it. Not sure what to think about that. 

The Princess has speech therapy at school on Tuesdays because she has a hard time pronouncing her "R"s and "TH" sounds. This should be interesting. :)
