What an extensive selection of really cute hairstyles! Great compilation 🙂
You have the classic princesses like Cinderella, as well as the princesses of the newer generation like Elsa, Anna & Merida. I think the best style to try would be the one that mirrors your natural hair – that way you won’t need to do a lot of work to pull it off.
