Dorothy:
-Split hair down the center from front to back
-Dampen hair for ease in braiding
-Begin making a braid approx 1” behind the ear
-Use styling gel on thick hair to help secure & get rid of flyaways, or styling cream for finer hair


Superman:
-Make hair VERY wet & use LOTS of gel
-Slick back hair with comb
-Pull small piece of hair forward & wrap it once around your finger and then press to set on forehead!


Princess Tiana:
-Put hair in pony tail & then twist hair around in a circular motion
-To secure, you can use bobby pins or take another elastic & put right over the bun
-For a softer look like the one shown, pull out a few strands of hair before securing bun.
-Use a curling iron with a 1” barrel to curl strands. Use a tiny bit of gel prior to curling iron to help secure curls
-Pull out one very small hair strands right above ea ear to create tendrils.. Curl both strands as directed previously
-Use a small amount of gel to help hold hair back & prevent flyaways
