I saw a darling hairstyle for hair that could be about mid back, I would guess.  My hair is too long for this, but I bet a number of you could have fun with it!

The hair is put into double french braids.  Leave about 3 - 4 inches for the "tassle" ends. 

Fold the braids back up to be alongside the french braid and secure with those cute, tiny butterfly claw clips. 

This puts the tassle sticking up in a style similar to when people put their hair up in a messy bun with the ends sticking out all over.

If the braids are tied off with colorful ribbons, it would add to the style.

I wish I could have gotten a picture of the style.  It was so simple, but looked neat and fun.  I hope someone here might give it a try and post a picture.

That style sounds so cute and spunky...I don't know if I could get French braids to turn out on myself, but maybe my sisters will allow me to experiment on them sometime!

good idea BB.

  But, unfortunately i have retarded hands. yes, yes its true. they cant braid(my hands cant braid). so i have called them retarded hands.LOL
