20+ Toddler Hairstyles for Girls

Sharing is caring!

As Squeaker is entering toddlerhood, one of our challenges has been keeping her bangs out of her face. I’m in no rush to get her haircut, and so I’ve been looking for toddler hairstyles for girls that I can do at home. I wouldn’t say I’m hair-challenged but I want something easy and quick for both her patience and my sanity. Most days, I’m content to just put her hair in pigtails (or pretty as she calls them) and be done with it.

But now, I’m inspired to try more ideas and I’m sharing with you 20+ easy hairstyles for little girls that I love.

First, you might want to check out this helpful post from A Bella Braids about how to care for your toddler’s hair.

And, just so you can see the struggle?

Forgive the blurriness, Squeaker was in a rush to get back outside to play. Her pigtails were already wet for this so after braiding on the run (literally), I secured the two braids together at the back.

Braiding hair while wet makes for a tighter braid. If I wanted an even better braid, I would have grabbed gel but it wasn’t that big of a deal for me.
