"Truly Scrumptious" Hair Style by Request

A nice, quick and simple hairstyle incorporating pigtails and braids that you may remember from the movie Chitty Chitty Bang Bang. A request I was happy to do as I wore my hair like this all the time when I was little. It must have been my Mom's favorite. :oP

Heh, this is absolutely adorable.

I was wondering: do you have any idea how to do a French braided headband? I get the general concept and I keep trying, but I just cannot make it look good.

[torrinpaige]

I'm still working on that as a part of my ongoing frustration with the crown braid. I'll post it as soon as I figure them out, promise!

The scene in Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, is the "doll on the music box" scene.

[torrinpaige]

Yes! That's it. It's been so long since I've seen it.

[bjjowett]

Very cute! :) Lol: "My mothers side of the family is very German." :)

If you saw the amount of keilbasa, "wursts" and sauerkraut they go through, you'd totally understand. LMAO. It's so funny half of my family take after my Gram and are very Native American (dark hair, dark eyes, tiny boned) and the other half got my Pap's genes- light eyes, light hair, and hardy. We're big boned and very sturdy. The cheekbones are the same throughout, though. Very odd.

it's not german, more bavarian, okay maybe traditionally german but not like : everybody in germany wears this hairstyle

[xPicturePerfectxx]

Very cute, can't wait until my hair is long enough for this. Thanks for the video!

[TheCrazyBlackCat]

well I´m german and I never saw this hairstyle on anyone. maybe it is something from the past lol. Anyways this seems to be a very cute hairstyle for little girls :-) thank you for all your tutorials, I just loooooooooove them!

My german mother calls this style "monkey swings" Because a monkey could sit and swing in them. That's what they called them when she was a child. I've got two nieces now and when they want to look nice for church or a birthday party they ask me to do monkey swings ...

My mum had this when she was 7-14 in UdSSR. It cames from there

Well i have very straight hair. So it gets straight imm. But a few friends have ended up with curly hair, it has to grow out......... We have to wear it to school!

[ElisabettaVS]

Why is that? Where do you live that you HAVE to wear it? *oh, just saw that you're from India, right? Yeah, I understand, of course your hair get wavy! xD How long does it then take to get your hair straight again? just a few days?

[enigmaticfille]

Ok! I had to wear this to school everyday, and that means from 7am till about 5-6PM! So my perfectly straight hair ended up being wavy all the time! LOLZ....... I had to wait till vacays for it to get normal again!

[ElisabettaVS]

"No", we don't wear this hairstyle in our normal everyday life. Maybe in bavaria for the october feast (or however it is called in english). You may wear this with a traditional dress or very loose, which looks kind of stylish and appropriate while not being too rigorous.

@Wunderkindchen1994 stimmt, und alle Mädels haben lange, blonde Haare immer zu einem Gretchenzopf oder diesen oben gezeigten 2-Zöpfen gebunden ... ha, ha, ha xD "Typisch Deutsch" ist eben nicht unbedingt "normaler Alltag"

[Wunderkindchen1994]

irgendwie haben alle voll das komische bild von deutschland ... bratwürste dirndl bier und bretzel ... xD

[enigmaticfille]

No? huh?
