you don't know a t h i n g about my s i n s, how the m i s e r y begins.

Well, I did my hair very similarly one year for a play. It's kind of different, because hers looks curlier, whereas mine was more like... um... what's the word... crimped. I can tell you how I did mine, if it will help.

I started the night before, by wetting my hair, and braiding it into 25-30 braids. Don't put rubber bands around the bases, just divide the hair into sections and braid the sections together until your whole head is done. If you want to do it like hers, leave your bangs alone, but braid everything else. The way I had mine, I had a hat on in the play, so I left the braids on the top front and next to my temples in as braids, and pinned them up under the hat to create loop things - looked tres cool, especially with the rest of it all poofy and wild. Hairspray/spray gel each braid when done. Try to get as absolutely close to the end of the hair as you can with the braiding before you rubber band it.

Sleep with your hair in the braids. It might probably will be a little uncomfortable. In the morning, undo the braids and run a brush through (a bristle brush gets better results than the other kind) the hair to make it more poofy. Shape it how you want with pins, etc. Hairspray again to hold the shape, but be careful not to overdo it. You can kind of pre-decide where you want the hair to fall by the direction you braid the hair (i.e. braid a section on top of your head to fall to the side if you want it to go that way instead of down the back). Do the bangs.

Another tip: the longer you keep the braids in, the longer the poof will stay in your hair. Also, if you brush the braids while they're still braided, it will add poof. (As in, hold the end of the braid and brush along it (or cross it)... it will pull the braid partway out, but it gives a lot of poof) If you're planning on doing this a lot (something I don't reccommend for sheer timesaving sake), try not to section the hair off the same way each time... it will get "tired" that way. You can also try moussing the hair while it's still wet. If you're going to do that, I reccommend putting mousse in a small area of the head (3 or 4 braids worth of hair), then braid it, then mousse the next area. This way the mousse on the opposite end of where you started won't dry with the hair by the time you get there, and you'll have to wash and re-mousse it anyway, so why bother? Keep wetting your hair as you go along if it dries before you get to braid that section (it will). The wetter you start, the more potential shape it will hold. Dryer hair doesn't hold the kinks of a braid as well as hair that dries into that shape.

Wow, that was kind of long-winded, but I hope it helps. And if my hair was longer (it looks like a blonde version of the other two girls' haircuts), and if I had a digital camera, I'd take pictures of myself going through the process as visual aides if it was confusing.

you d o n ' t k n o w, so i'm burning. i'm b u r n i n g.
