What to do when your 3 month old has a mullet.

Post may contain affiliate links. Explanation here. 

Baby bath time in our home is almost always followed by some sink sitting time with the blow dryer for our little one. That hair! I never in a million years imagined my child would have such great lengths, especially given that my own hair grows at such a snail's pace. I'm pretty much inept at hair styles. Never was I one for braids, fancy updo's or anything of the sort so this is all unfamiliar territory to me.

On lazy afternoons, much like today, when I've proclaimed it a Stay-In-Our-PJ's kind of day, we both go au-naturale with our manes. She'll be four months old shortly though and I'm slowly accepting that with those long locks, I've got to seriously step up my hair game. We started out slow, with blow dryer + side swooped bow clip, however, I quickly realized that although long, her hair isn't quite thick enough to hold a bow on its own. Next came the ever-popular one small tuft of hair, standing up tall, with tiny hair elastics  and a bow. Since then, we've experimented with the pigtails.

I think I may have just found our winner. Not only do the double duo adequately hide the mullet, but it also gives her the illusion of bangs since her hair's short in the front and long in the back. It's a win win!

Next up, may I introduce our first attempt at pigtails! 

Ps. No, that is not a nose piercing on my daughter. She somehow manages to nick her tiny face even after I've trimmed those fingernails of hers!
