Halloween Hair...Snow White

Start with the ringlets like in the base hair post below and finger comb them out and spray them. Let them dry. I put the headband...Snow White's is red. Make sure you remember that. On a normal day I would probably stop here because I love this. However, we are trying to be Snow White, so we keep on going.So now, take and brush her hair down.

Halloween Hair...Tinkerbell

This was actually too low for my liking, but her hair is short and I didn't want all of the pieces on the bottom to fall out.Put the comb between the elastic and the scalp and pull out.
