Basic Hairstyles

    Here are what the basic hairdos look like. I'll post how-tos later!  


     Braids

                  This is a basic 3-strand braid. You probably already know how to do it.

                                     This is a french braid. You may already know this one, too. 

                                   

                                            A dutch braid. (It is sometimes called an inside out french braid, an outie french braid, or an underhand french braid.) 

                                          A herringbone.  

                                                      French herringbone.

                      
                                                       Oops, this one was supposed to be posted by the french braid. 

                The top picture is a lace braid. The bottom picture is a lace braid as viewed from underneath. 

                                               Corkscrew twist.

                                                 This is a french corkscrew twist. 

                                                 Carousel twist.

                                                     French carousel twist.  


    Ponytails  


                                 You probably already know most of these. 

                                                  Basic high pony.

                                                  Flippied ponytail. 

                                                      Hair-wrapped elastic pocytail.

                     A bumpity-bumpity. You can also do french bumpity-bumpities, but I forgot to get a picture. (Sometimes these are called elastic braids or puffy braids.) 



Buns  

                                                  Basic bun.  

                                                   Air-filled bun. 

                                             Pull-through bun. 


Twists  

                                                          Twist. 

                                                   French twist.


There is another category that I did not include in here, knots. First of all, because they are not basic, second of all, because they can be buns, braids or ponies. They don't really fit anywhere. Sorry about the doll hair, but there is no way I would've been able to get Sleeping Beauty to sit through all of these basics!
