Miss Mel's Braided Headband
First step is to part your hair and pull the front pieces forward while pulling the rest of your hair into a (temporary) ponytail. Second step to is to french braid two,thin braids on each side of your head, working your way towards the back. Third step is to tie each braid with a small, elastic band. Fourth step is to bring both braids back behind your head and secure with bobby pins and/or a claw clip.
Viola!

Milk-Maid Braids
Create two small braids coming out from the side of your head and then cross each braid over the opposite side. Secure with bobby-pins and hairspray...lots and lots of hairspray! You can also add the bouffant look (as featured in the picture below) by teasing up the crown of your head and making a low bun.
