Finding practical hairstyles that will work on your toddler daughter need not be a challenge. In fact, here are 5 options that are not only quick and easy to do, but that will make your daughter look as cute and adorable as possible at the same time.

#1 – Traditional Pigtail

This is by far the easiest style to use on most toddler girls. Not only can it be created quickly; it is also known for being extremely cute, especially when the hair is only just long enough to place in pig tails. Start by gathering everything needed, such as a soft brush and a few elastics. Brush your daughter’s hair gently and divide it into sections. Place each section through an elastic and secure it firmly (not too tightly, as it will pull the hair). When the time comes to remove each pigtail, simply break the elastics instead of pulling them out – there will be far fewer tears this way.

#2 – Quick Fringe Braid

If your toddler is not keen on the idea of sitting still for more than a few minutes at a time, but you want to keep her fringe out of her eyes, braiding just her fringe area can help achieve this goal relatively quickly. Once the fringe braid is complete and the end has been secured with elastic, pull it gently towards the back of the head and accent it with accessories like adorable baby hair headbands.

#3 – Parted Pony Tail

This style is extremely quick and easy to pull off in that all you will need is hair elastics and a hair brush. Create a side path by brushing the hair to one side of the head. Once all of the hair has been bunched to the one side, gather it together in your hand and wrap the elastic around it, creating a side pony tail. Once again, ensure that the hair is not being pulled too tightly in the elastic.

#4 – Center Twisted Pigtail

With this hairstyle, you will need two hair elastics and a comb or soft brush. Part your daughter’s hair down the middle, and once this is done, take each section of the hair and give it a few gentle twists round and round before placing it into a pigtail towards the side of her head. Not only will this look incredibly adorable; it will also help keep any wayward hair out of her eyes while she is out and about or playing.

#5 – The Simple Headband Style

When all else fails and your toddler is having nothing to do with sitting still even for a minute, it will probably be a good idea to make use of accessories like baby hair headbands or pretty glitter bows for toddlers to add a girly touch without causing any tears or frustration (for you and her). Simply place a cute headband into her hair to keep it out of her face and use a few glitter bow clips to add a fashionable touch to it.

Points to Consider

Before choosing an evening hairstyle for a little girl, it’s important to take into consideration the amount of hair she has, whether it is thin or thick and if she is old enough (or willing) to keep any accessories like glitter bows or glitter hair clips in for the duration of the evening. When it comes to little girls who are between the ages of 3 and 5 years, it is normally best to stick with styles that are as simple as possible. This will ensure that washing and styling their hair doesn’t take longer than a few minutes at the most.

Short or Long Bobs

These are one of the easiest hairstyles to maintain on little girls in the 3 to 5 year age bracket, and including a few pretty accessories like a heart-embellished headband or a few velvet and glitter-covered snap clips will help keep any stray fringe or other hair firmly and comfortably in place. Another option that can help add a glamorous touch to this evening hairstyle is small snap clips that have been decorated with sequined stars. Each of these options will help keep the hair in place without it being uncomfortable or tight in any way.

Short Pixie Cut

In most cases, parents of little girls aged 3 to 5 are looking for styles that are relatively simple, but still cute and elegant. Opting for the short pixie cut will ensure that there are no tears when the time comes to styling and/or placing any round glitter bows velvet and glitter ribbon snappy clips in the hair to keep the fringe out of the eyes.  Even though this design is generally short all around, a cute triple heart headband can be inserted to add just the right finishing touch.

Side Sweep of Curls

Although many little girls in this age bracket have absolutely beautiful curls, these can be somewhat challenging to style at any time – let alone for an evening event. However, simply brushing the hair, sweeping it all to one side of the head and securing it in place with a few pretty glitter hair accessories such as tuxedo glitter bow pinch clips. These will keep the hair to the side and another clip can be used to ensure that no hair falls into the eyes.

When trying to choose an evening hairstyle idea for a little girl between 3 and 5 years of age, it is important to remember that she will already have a few preferences of her own, which should be taken into account as well. If she doesn’t enjoy dressing up too much, it will be best to stick with styles that are simpler and that will require the use of as few hair accessories as possible.
