Ok, so I’ve to say I’m soooo apprehensive to post this – because my girls aren’t the ones “starring” in this video. It’s well … ME!
I did a couple video’s on Goose doing this, but I just wasn’t liking it as much since she doesn’t really have bangs. So last night I locked myself in the bathroom and made this really quickly. I’ve got to admit I HATE having myself be the one front and center for this – but alas, I couldn’t show you the way I wanted to unless I did use my hair for this. So please try not to laugh too hard & don’t make any mean comments. There are reason’s I’m the one usually behind the camera and my cute girls are front & center! I certainly wasn’t born to make movies that’s for sure! LOL.
Anyway – I’ve seen lots of girls – and adult woman sporting this and I think it’s totally cute so I hope you don’t mind me sharing!
Here’s just a few pictures of when I did this on Goose a couple days ago. Her hair is so thick, it comes out looking rather different than on my puny bangs. Also, because of the thickness of her hair, I preferred to anchor it making an X with my bobby pins to secure it.
Then we just let the hair fall back down over it to hide the bobby pins.
And that’s it. Really quick & easy. Sorry – no pix from my bangs sporting the look! Like I said – I prefer to stay behind the camera!
Anyway – hope you get the idea from what I tried to show in my Hollywood-esque video! hehe I just wanted you to see that you can do such a fun & cute twist with as little hair as I have for my bangs. So if your dd has shorter hair – this still can work for you! Let me know if you have any questions.

Thank you!

Thank you for yet again another wonderful video! It seems simple enough, but I never could have figured it out on my own! You are so cute and I love your cut and color (even though this was done 2 years ago!). Just did yet ANOTHER ‘do’ inspired by you for my 5 year old. I’ve been doing her hair almost every day using your ideas!

I want learn any hair style and French
Carol says
Wow, love this, thought my hair was too short to do anything with. Thank You!
The Mom says
Hope it works for you. I never thought I’d be able to get my bangs to do that either and was pleasantly surprised when it turned out so well. I do this whenever my bangs are getting too long or I know it’s going to be a windy day! Thanks for commenting.

Thanks!! Love your site. I try but my braids on my daughter never really turnout. Lots of practice I guess. Thanks for the tutorial on this, will work great on me. Ps your beautiful children look just like you, love the twist on you!
The Mom says
Thanks so much! I’m so glad you like this. I did it in my bangs just yesterday and regardless of how long or short my bangs are I love it!

Hello, I just found your website and I am so excited that there is someone out there willing to show how to style hair with great written instructions and videos! I have looked long and hard and even thought about purchasing books showing how to braid hair until I stumbled here. I love all of the hairstyles shown and cannot wait to try them on my preteen who has been bugging me to learn how to do hair and may even try a few styles on myself once I get the hang of it. Also that cheat with french braids was so excellent.
The Mom says
I’m so glad you found us! I hope you’re able to try out lots of our styles and that your daughter will be excited to have you try them out! Thanks so much for taking the time to comment & let us know! 🙂

Thanks for posting all these ideas! I so needed this twist for me and my girl. I’m really glad you take the time to put these up for all of us!
The Mom says
So glad this helped you! This is one of my favorite things to do with my bangs – especially when they are getting long!
