Dad Teaches How to Create Pippi Longstocking Braids

Today's tutorial is another Daddy Do, done by Shaun! He will be continuing our Halloween Spooktorial series by teaching how to create Pippi Longstocking Braids!
Watch our Rylan and the girls meet Taylor Swift HERE!
We've done these braids for years, and Shaun is always the one to get involved on these more decorative and wild hairstyles. He uses 16 gauge wire, bent in half and twisted. Why not use a wire clothes hanger? Because the girls say that hanger wire hurts their heads, so Shaun uses a thinner wire that he then twists up {twisting helps grip the braids better for less slide} and doesn't hurt their heads.
We call this a Daddy Do for two reasons, first, because you are using two simple 3-strand braids, anyone can do them... even dads! The second reason is that they get to use man tools to do the hair! LOL!

I was literally laughing off camera when Shaun says "... this is part of our Spooktorial series, and this hairstyle is a little scary!" I love that he is willing to do things like this when most men won't! The kids mean everything to him!
