How I Recreate It in Under 15 Minutes
Start with freshly washed, detangled hair.
I always use a wide-tooth comb and a creamy leave-in to keep things slip-free.
Section the hair into four quadrants, then work in small parts, twisting or braiding from the root to the tip.
For toddlers, I keep the tension light and use soft hair ties or clips instead of rubber bands to avoid breakage.
Once the style is in, I gently fluff any puffs with a soft brush and finish with a light oil or shine spray on the scalp.
The whole routine is quick most styles take under 20 minutes.
So even the wiggliest little one can make it through.
