Princess hair

I love to braid. It's no grand secret that I have been waiting for Ellie to sprout hair so I can wrestle her down and do all manner of beautiful braids.

Sadly, Ellie has my hair instead of her dad's: on the side of thin, super fine, curly half the time, whispy the rest. I can certainly braid it, but the braids fall out after a few hours. :(

Then I come across this website, www.princesshairstyles.com. And now I'm even more sad that Ellie's hair won't hold a braid (and further that she lacks more than about three minutes patience in the hair torture department. Her ideal hairstyle is a bow or barrette in one side. Done.)

It's probably for the best. I can't decide if the little girl who's head is the featured princess hair enjoys being a guinea pig for princess hair fashion or not. I suspect Ellie would fall into the "not' range. So sad. Check this site out if you have a little girl who would love something fun and different, who likes to have her hair done or if you feel like a child's hair should reflect a holiday: plenty of hearts and shamrocks to be found here! Also, I suspect there are a few semi-formal or prom-ish styles in there, too.
