Candy Cane Yarn Twists

How did Bre get a Christmas style that is easily changed after the holidays are over?  We added a few candy cane colored yarn twists to a head of black ones.

There are maybe ten candy cane colored ones.  The black yarn is red heart super saver yarn and the candy cane ones are Red Heart red and white shimmer yarn.

I braided the yarn in up top to secure it then transitioned to twists.  We used Bee Mine Luscious to moisturize, Bee Mine juicy spritz to seal the ends and Darcy Botanicals madagascar vanilla styling creme to hold the hair in place.

Later on we cut the excess ends and trimmed em up so they were even.  Perfect winter protective style for transitioners.

Neighbor and Me hair!

We did a front flat twist into a ponytail with the ponytail being mini twists.

Once the girls I was babysitting saw Ray's hair both of them wanted it styled the same way.  I cornrowed their's just because doing flat twists on straight hair is difficult and more time consuming.

Ray loved having matching hair.

Simple cornrow style

We saw a facebook picture on BBB and decided to copy it we liked it so much. Unfortunately I took the pictures on my phone which was lost.  We updated the style this weekend and still have those pictures.

The top 12 cornrows used to be straight back with laces.  We redid them to have criss cross cornrows.  We also took out the rubber bands at her ends, added moisturizer and oil, and wrapped them around snaps.  We will see how well the snaps stay in after a week.  She loved this style only because she got to wear a headband that matched her outfit.

We got a plastic headband, wove different colors of ribbon around it, and hot glued a fake flower, petal by petal.

The cornrows held up really well and I think we can possibly get another 2 weeks out of this style.
