Every girl in her early childhood begins to understand that looking neat is her direct responsibility. Her perception by others and, therefore, their attitude depends on this, therefore it can be concluded that a neat child of a pleasant appearance is much less likely to run into ridicule from children who do not always understand their own cruelty. If the girl looks really beautiful, they will probably talk about her, and the baby will probably be pleased to be aware of her own beauty.
One of the determining factors for girlish beauty is a good hairstyle, and although it was not so long ago that it was believed that truly experienced and expensive master can make really complex and unique styling, today the parents of many girls successfully prove the opposite.
If you think that your daughter also deserves to look like a little princess, it is worthwhile to carefully study the possible options for hairstyles for girls.
Casual hairstyles
To look like a real princess, you do not have to wait for the holiday - ideally, you should look good every day. Nowadays, developed technologies, including beauty, are no longer customary to look the same every day - To produce the desired effect, many women choose unusual interesting hairstyles that change with enviable regularity.At the same time, the imagination of the creators of such styling, multiplied by decades of experiments, led to the fact that you can achieve an amazing appearance without much effort - you just need to know what to do so that the result exceeds all expectations.
There are many children's hairstyles that you can easily do with your own hands. Their diversity allows each child to choose at least 3-5 options for varying both by day of the week and by situation. We will not consider all these varieties of classic braids, tails and stabs - most of them come to parents at the instinctive level, but it’s worth highlighting a few relatively new trends.
"Wreath" of elastic bands
This elegant hairstyle has already become quite famous, but it is still not used by everyone, because a girl with such a wreath on a specific day will most likely be the only one in her team. Perhaps this hairstyle can not be called any outstanding masterpiece, but it completely solves the problem of hair climbing into the face, and at the same time it is radically different from most other solutions to this situation.
The optimal hair length for this hairstyle is considered average.
Styling begins with the fact that you need to create a lot of separate tails around the entire circumference of the head, because the hair is first divided in half with a longitudinal part, then each of the resulting parts is cut in half already horizontally, after which the parts are divided equally in half several more times, until their total number will not reach 16. It is important to ensure that the distance between the individual tails is uniform, for this they can be repeatedly fixed with elastic bands during the division process.
When all the hair is divided into 16 uniform parts, we tie them with elastic bands now completely. For these purposes, you can use both monophonic elastic bands and various color combinations, which will make the hairstyle even brighter and more original. The last step now is to put together all the resulting small ponytails and tie them together with one large elastic on the crown. Thanks to this solution, a significant part of the length of the hair is lost, and when assembled, they will certainly not climb into the face, and due to the abundance of gums, it is unlikely that styling will fall apart quickly even during active games.
"Horns"
This is one of the most relevant youth hairstyles, which not only allows you to effectively collect hair, but is also very suitable for many women. Moreover, the length of the hair does not matter much, since not all hair must be enclosed in formed “bumps” - some of them can hang down from the back, without interfering with the review and complementing, making the image even more original. The most appropriate use of this type of styling for girls with an oval face shape.
In fact, the shape of the "horns" can be very diverse, they are formed both from free strands of hair and from already braided braids, they can have a relatively small volume or greatly increase the size of the head. It should be remembered that too short hair to create such an image does not fit - it is assumed to be at least shoulder length. In this case, the "horns" are wound only from clean, thoroughly washed hair.
To understand how this procedure is generally performed, consider it using the example of the formation of “horns” from pigtails. To begin with, you should divide the hair into two parts with a parting in half, and the latter does not even have to be straight. After collecting the strands of each of the halves, try experimentally to determine where they are best located on the top of the head so that the girl walks, and then fix them in the chosen place with an elastic band.
The position of future “horns” on the head is determined by the creator of the hairstyle, however, it is important to maintain symmetry, if the high hairstyle does not want to hold on, strengthen the fastening with the second rubber bands for each side.
In well-made “horns,” the gum should not be visible, because they initially try to choose the color of the hair, but this does not mean that it does not need to be masked additionally. The remaining mass of hair needs to be wrapped in a donut around the main tail - this will shorten the length of the latter and make the base more stable.
Tightness, as well as the exact location of the "horns", is determined arbitrarily - you can form some kind of nest from fairly freely pulled hair, while others prefer to braid each tail into a pigtail, and only then wind it around the base. At the same time, “horns” of owners of very long hairs are usually distinguished by increased tightness, and with a relatively short length it is better to leave them a certain freedom, which will add a three-dimensional hair style.
Part of the hair is not forbidden and left without twisting its entire length into “horns” - then a braid or straight hair is wound on the base until a certain point, marked with another elastic or bow. At the same time, young children are usually not advised to pull their hair tightly - it is better to focus on fixing them with the ability to easily fix broken strands at any time.
Stylists often use cosmetics such as gels and hair sprays to consolidate the effect, but in the case of children, their use is usually not very welcome, but if you still can’t do without them, then the amount of makeup should be minimal.
Holiday options
If even in everyday life it is important to periodically do different hairstyles, then on holidays this need for children becomes obvious. A cool, cool hairstyle for a girl is already a holiday in itself, because no small beauty will refuse an sensible original idea. There should already be much more options here, since it is extremely undesirable to repeat, and we, not being able to consider absolutely everything, at least learn how to make simple and at the same time impressive styling steps.
Bezel
The classic bezel is considered to be an everyday hairstyle, but it is able to competently remove hair so as not to interfere with the crown, tiara or any other jewelry that claims to be a headdress.
In the frontal part of the head, all the hair is separated and combed forward, the same ones that remained on the other side of the parting, are temporarily removed back and gathered in an elastic band in the tail, so as not to interfere. Now the entire front part of the hair is combed in one of the sides - left or right, and on its basis they begin to form a French spikelet, gradually adding additional strands to it as it moves. When such a pigtail stretches from ear to ear, its end is tied with the smallest of the available elastic bands, selected for the color of the hair. After that, the collected hair of the back of the head is dissolved, and if necessary, curled, which allows you to remove the strands from the forehead without collecting them as a whole. A loose hairstyle also allows you to hide the ends of the French braid.
"Basket"
This hairstyle belongs to the category of “eternal values”, because it is both very old and still very relevant. Our grandmothers went with such styling, but our granddaughters, most likely, will also go with her.
To create a multilayer version in the best classical traditions, the hair is first evenly distributed over the entire surface of the head so that it hangs from all sides. Weaving begins at the crown, collecting hair into a French braid, while replenishing it with new "raw materials" is necessary only from among those curls that were outside the current weave. Continue to weave until all hair is used, after which the braid ends in a three-row weave. Thanks to the correct implementation of all the above actions, a multi-row “basket” will appear on the head, under which you need to hide the remaining free tip. Now it remains only to fix it with the help of "invisibility", and a simple but stylish hairstyle is ready.
"Heart"
Heart-shaped hair laying will certainly appeal to romantic natures, which include most of the little girls.Most people like this design, but for some reason it is widely believed in society that for such styling some special specialist is necessary. In fact, you can easily make such a hairstyle at home, and its obvious advantage is that this very heart can be located in absolutely any part of the head, thus introducing some variety.
The features of the formation of such a hairstyle depend on the final location of the "heart", but for example we will consider its location on the back of the head. First of all, a parting is formed from the center of the forehead to the back of the head, one of the side parts of the future hairstyle is collected with an elastic band so as not to interfere with the preparation of the first side. From the hair that is left loose, approximately from the top of the head, a French braid is formed, weaving strands into it only from the outside - this will make it bend in the right direction, as a result of which it will begin to resemble a little heart. Naturally, only half of the “heart” will be obtained from half the hair, therefore, when the desired figure is reached, it's time to tie a pigtail with an elastic band and do the same manipulations on the other hand.
For the beauty of the resulting hairstyle, it is fundamentally important to have a hand that does not flinch, because both halves of the “heart” should be perfectly symmetrical.
When weaving the second half, you should constantly check its shape with the first, correcting significant flaws in time to a state of subtle. In a place where the two halves should be joined, tie them together with an elastic band. The remaining hair can be left loose, braided into a common braid or decorated with ribbons.
A bunch of braids
This hairstyle is one of the simplest, but at the same time effective, since it allows you to collect a huge amount of hair in a relatively small volume of the bundle. At the same time, it looks much more original than banal tails or braids, but it is done in approximately the same way.
In fact, the beam can be located almost anywhere - it can be located in the back center, but it often makes it asymmetrical, placing it in the lower back of the head closer to the left or right side. This arrangement allows you to more effectively harmonize with the bangs and create a holistic image of the girl, and also allows some kind of variation in appearance.
For example, consider a beam formed not in the center, but closer to one of the sides. First, the hair in the place where the base for the future bundle will be is collected in a classic tail - for its formation, hair is usually collected from the entire head, except as an exception, leaving only a few strands in front. After that, the tail is divided into at least three equal parts, from each weave a separate braid. The number of such braids depends on the density of the girl’s hair - the higher this figure, the greater the number of braids expected.
When all the hair is turned into a certain amount of braids, they begin to alternately wrap around the base of the former common tail. Without proper fixation, they will not hold in this position, therefore it is necessary to stock up with a solid number of studs and to fix with them an increasingly increasing beam volume. The finished hairstyle, as a rule, is also additionally decorated with some decorative elements - it can be either a hairpin with a beautiful tip, or larger jewelry.
Hair bow
Many hairstyles suggest their own bow decoration, however, the stylists' ingenious find is the ability to form a bow directly from the hair itself, which will be a hairstyle. Of course, this option is not suitable for every girl - a bow should be made only from exemplary beautiful hair, otherwise all its festivity will be lost. On the other hand, no one forbids rehearsing first at home to see how the result will look, and if you like it, and use it for its intended purpose.
The best hair length for such a hairstyle would be medium.
First, a tail is made from the entire mass of hair on the top of the head, but it is not completely pulled out of the gum - a loop should be obtained. We divide this loop in half, spreading its halves to the sides - this should be our bow, and we’ll tie the isthmus between them with the remaining end of the tail. For an ideal look, you can “conjure” with the ends of your hair, hiding them under the bow halves and stitching them there with “invisibles”; for a more solemn look, you can twist the bow halves a little.
If desired, you can also complement the hair bow with some accessories like the same hair clips.
Locks
Almost a mandatory feature of a real princess and simply an outstanding beauty are curls - slightly twisted locks that freely fall on the sides. Such a hairstyle does not belong to the category of the simplest, and even requires correspondence from the whole image as a whole, therefore it is assumed that the curls will be complemented with an elegant outfit.
If the child is distinguished by restlessness and is not ready for hours to wait for the final result, you can use the most primitive way to design curls. To do this, just in the evening, braid the hair into small braids, without unwinding them before bedtime. In the morning, it remains just to gently pull the braids out, and the curls will be ready, but one should not expect from this operation an ideal result and impressive durability - if it works just fine, then it’s already good.
A more effective way to solve the problem are papillots, which can be made even from improvised means. You can even make them from old, but always clean rags - you will need a good one and a half dozen shreds measuring about 10 by 2 centimeters. For each of them, you need to separately prepare another strip of newsprint twice as wide - these strips are wound on the fabric in the middle.
The size of future curls is determined by the thickness of the wound hair bundle - the thinner it is, the less curls will be. Wet hair is wound on papillots. Such curls for forming are also usually left overnight, while the result is usually characterized by significant durability even without treatment with fixing compounds.
Serious stylists use special means to create curls, among which, first of all, thermal hair curlers and electric hair curlers. Common alternatives in the form of plaques and irons or curling aids are not recommended by specialists - all this equipment, giving a good result here and now, contributes to speedy hair damage. However, young children should be protected from the use of thermal hair curlers at least until they reach a conscious age.
Malvina
Not everyone knows the name of this hairstyle (which, incidentally, cannot be called official), but everyone saw this option for hair styling. Its meaning is to leave them loose in general, but the front strands, which usually interfere and climb into the face, should be removed back. There are quite a lot of variations on what to do with the removed hair - depending on their length, you can choose a simple tail, and also form a bun or bun.
It is assumed that even a square can be decorated in this style.
The huge advantage of this particular hairstyle is that it is extremely simple. On both sides of the head, the same amount of hair is taken away, which is located in the frontal part of the head. These strands, as if clinging to the head with the main part of loose hair, are found on the back of the head, where they gather. As already mentioned, this can be done in any of the possible ways, you can even decorate the place of hair collection with any special decoration. Those hair that remains loose can be curled in curlers or curling irons.
Please note that this type of hairstyle can be extremely neat, and quite disheveled.
It is the latter option that is fashionable youth trend, but it is not suitable for a child attending public children's institutions, since the administration of the institution may oppose excessive freedom of expression.
How to choose by age?
It is necessary to determine the choice of a specific hairstyle not only from your own preferences or wishes of the child, but also taking into account the age characteristics of the girl, who also matter.
So, for the smallest child who attends kindergarten and has not yet fully realized the need to be neat, the most appropriate are those hairstyles that cannot be so easily destroyed in one motion. At the same time, it is unacceptable for the child to feel uncomfortable due to the shape or excessive tightness of the styling, because this will be a direct impetus in order to try to give his own hair a certain free form. It is clear that without a mirror and the help of outsiders it will look more like a simple mess on your head.
The realization that your own beauty depends not only on your mother, but also on your own attitude to hair, comes to girls closer to the transition from kindergarten to school, and at about 6-7 years old they completely understand this. There are exceptions in the form of girls who are ready to neglect beauty for their own convenience, but most babies tend to imitate Disney idols and are even willing to make certain sacrifices for the sake of a good image. At this stage, you should gradually begin to be interested in the opinion of the child, offering him a choice of several possible hairstyle options. The arguments “for” and “against” each option may not be obvious to the baby, so you need to explain that one solution is good for its convenience and practicality, and the second looks a little better, but then you have to tolerate.
Remember: if you have already taken an interest in the point of view of your daughter, then you should not pretend that it does not matter.
As for girls of school age, especially middle and older, the choice of styling is already more dependent on them, especially since often they themselves are responsible for its implementation. This means that parents should be prompted rather than give specific recommendations to the child. Adults can only make sure that the choice of the child does not contradict generally accepted norms, is not too challenging and does not conflict with the rules established at school. In all other respects, it's time to give the girl enough freedom to decide for herself how she should look.
Beautiful examples
Talking about hairstyle options without a concrete example is always a big risk to misunderstand the narrator’s original plan, so you should take a closer look at the most popular solutions for girls that look beautiful and neat without requiring excessive effort.
The first photo is an interesting example of two of the above hairstyles. On the one hand, this is clearly what is commonly called “malvina,” on the other hand, the creator at the same time decided to make a bow of hair on the top of his head. This is done quite simply, it looks very gentle, and most importantly - it clearly shows that if you have the imagination to look original is absolutely not a problem.
"Horns" is considered to be such a primitive hairstyle that in most cases they are done only by the smallest girls, and even then only because of extremely short hair. In practice, this hairstyle can be done neatly and beautifully, beating the length of the hair and using third-party jewelry - as in the second photo.
Finally, the last example clearly shows why the princess, especially the little one, must be with curls. The exact location of the parting is left to the discretion of the parents, jewelry, too, but the curl itself is a factor that very decorates the child.
