to master the art of those quintessential Pippi pigtails.<\/strong> I started by parting the hair down the middle as I would for typical pigtails.&nbsp;I then created two sets of four pipe cleaners twisted together, folding the ends over into a loop to get rid of any jagged ends. These were the &#8220;framework&#8221; to hold the braids up.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Helpful Hints:<\/strong><\/em> My daughter has long, thick hair, so four pipe cleaners were necessary to get the desired lift in the finished hair-do. If your child has less hair, 2-3 pipe cleaners twisted together might do the trick. Also, the pipe cleaner sections should be roughly the same length as the finished braids will be, so for shorter hair, you will likely need to trim the sections down by a few inches before proceeding to the next step.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.positivelysplendid.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/How-to-do-Pippi-Longstocking-Hair-4.jpg\"><img data-attachment-id=\"9480\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.positivelysplendid.com\/diy-pippi-longstocking-costume\/how-to-do-pippi-longstocking-hair-4\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/www.positivelysplendid.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/How-to-do-Pippi-Longstocking-Hair-4.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"750,536\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;3.5&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;Picasa&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;Canon EOS REBEL T2i&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1443629512&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;18&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;1000&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.025&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"How to do Pippi Longstocking hair &#8211; step-by-step tutorial. #MichaelsMakers\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/www.positivelysplendid.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/How-to-do-Pippi-Longstocking-Hair-4-300x214.jpg\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/www.positivelysplendid.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/How-to-do-Pippi-Longstocking-Hair-4.jpg\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-9480\" src=\"https:\/\/www.positivelysplendid.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/How-to-do-Pippi-Longstocking-Hair-4.jpg\" alt=\"How to do Pippi Longstocking hair - step-by-step tutorial. #MichaelsMakers\" width=\"750\" height=\"536\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.positivelysplendid.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/How-to-do-Pippi-Longstocking-Hair-4.jpg 750w, https:\/\/www.positivelysplendid.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/How-to-do-Pippi-Longstocking-Hair-4-300x214.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>I separated each parted section into three sections, as I would for a typical braid.
