Both my girls were born with practically no hair. In fact; Ellie didn't have any until well after she was two. When she was a baby I had to have her in a headband at all times, even when she was wearing a dress or pink, otherwise people would comment on my cute baby boy.
The moment I could manage to put her hair (or the few strands she had) I did - she was 16 months and I was thrilled.

Now that she's a little lady who loves all things pink, pretty and girly she loves to have her hair done and because Ellie likes to have her hair done, so does Kahlei. I love it. I waited SO long to buy clips, hairbands and accessories!
With the release of the new Disney movie, Tangled, just around the corner the girls and I have taken on the Porter Novelli 5 Ways in 5 Days Challenge because a) we loved Tangled and b) we LOVE to do hair!
The lovely Briony sent us some funky hair accessories so this morning we broke them out.
Piggy tails are BIG here at the moment, Ellie always requests "Two, please." and I think they are just the epitome of childhood; a happy, bouncy hair-do for those carefree days of innocence.
And it's just so damn cute watching them run around with their hair flying everywhere.
Now that they have some!
What' your favourite kiddie hairstyle?

Gorgeous :o)
I'm totally in love with pigtails, they're so cute.
I didn't have hair til I was about 18 months old either :)
My little girl is 3 and a half, and only recently I discovered she has enough hair for a plait! So every morning when I brush her hair she asks for a "plot" haha.
I buy a lot of cutesy hair accessories for her on Facebook, there's so much out there when you really look!
In fact some arrived in the mail today from one of my fave businesses, so that will be a nice surprise for her when she comes home from daycare :)
what gorgeous pigtails ... super super cute!!
Gorgeous little piggie tales.
I had no hair till almost 3 and my boys were the same...well they were over 2 before they had a 1st hair cut.
It seems it's normal for babies to not have hair for much of their first years, which makes me wonder why I spent most of my girl's first year correcting people about their sex and then having them comment about their lack of said hair.
Kellie - LOVE that 'plot' sooo cute!
Trish - Ellie is nearly 4 and Kahlei is almost 2 and a half and be either have had hair cuts yet!
