Keep wrapping the hair around the braid when you get to the base and tie it off with an elastic in the back.
This wouldn't necessarily have to be just for Halloween. I suppose if you like it, it could be for any time. Happy Halloween!
Starting on one side of the part, take a section and do a half shoe string knot. Take the end on the right (closest to the pig) and temporarily pin it back by the pig.
Part out another section. Adding in the end from the knot above, do another shoe string knot, sending the end on the right over by the pig again. Continue to the bottom of the section. When you get to the bottom, take all the ends you have pinned to the side and add them to the pig. (Repeat these steps on both sides of her head.)
To do the knot/bun on the pig: Take the pig and split it in two. Do a half shoe string knot. Take one of the ends and twist it.
Wrap the twisted piece around the knot several times.
Bring it down to the bottom of the pig and add it in with the other end of the knot with an elastic.
Now you can curl the piggies and add some cute bows or flowers.
The best part of this style is this cute flower bow that came from Tinkerbell Boutique . The first thing I noticed about some of the flowers at this boutique are the buttons in the middle of the flowers. Such a cute idea! I love this particular color combination with the pink and brown.
Here's a better shot of the flower. I didn't take a picture of the back of this accessory, but it has a piece of felt-like material between the clip that grips the hair in really well. This flower stayed in all day long!
Here's a video to hopefully show you how to do the twist french braid. (In case you don't already know how to do it.) You need to know how to do a regular twist braid first though. If you need help with that, go to this twist braid video. 
You'll most likely be seeing a lot of these clippies on our blog in the future. The princess absolutely adores them. If you want some for your very own little princess, go straight to the boutique.
Part the square in half and put an elastic in at the bottom of the lower half.
Section off the top half and do three pull throughs. (If you don't know how to do a pull through, look under my "quick search labels" for "videos." You'll find an instructional video there!)
Now twist each of the ends of the pull throughs until they start twisting back on themselves and add these to the elastic.
Pull everything into a bun at the bottom and add your dragonfly.

It turns out #47 is actually someone I know (like in real life!) So, it's a darn good thing I have PROOF I didn't cheat!!The Hotton Six said...
This is how you start..........
Come back across, and add the bun...........
Do you love the bow? Look how happy this cute spider made the princess!!! She absolutely loves it. She'll most likely be wearing it in her hair every single day until Halloween. And now, here's my second attempt! In this case, the parts themselves are supposed to be the web. Use your imagination, I realize it's a stretch! I'm still not in love with it. Maybe the princess will let me try one more idea I have for this tomorrow.........
Alright, this is the last spider web I'm posting, I promise!! (This post is getting really long.) This one is for all of you who voted that you like the weird stuff!! Instructions for this one have been added here. 
If your daughter likes attention, this is a good one for that. We've been stopped by random strangers several times today wanting to take a gander. I'm guessing they thought we were insane!
It's Belle, fom Beauty and The Beast. (If you have a little girl, I'm sure you already knew that.) The style we are trying to recreate here is the hairdo from the ballroom where she's wearing the yellow dress. Here's what you'll need: Some little claw clips, 2 elastics, a dollar store bracelet, and an old nylon knee sock. (Yes, I know it's weird.)
Start by making a pony, leaving out a section in the front (parted on the side or middle, whatever you prefer.) Do an upside down pull through in the pony. (If you don't know how to do a pull through, look under my "quick search labels" for "videos." You'll find an instructional video there!)
Now take the sections you left out, twist them and bring them together with an elastic under the pony.
Here's where the nylon comes in. Roll it up and position it underneath the pony. This is how I got the volume in the bun thingy. Maybe if your daughter's hair is thick enough you won't have to do this.
Bring the hair from the pony over the nylon and place the dollar store bracelet around it.
Add a few claw clips to keep the dollar store bracelet in place. 
You may be wondering why if she's Belle, her dress is pink and not yellow. Well, the princess wanted to be a "Pink Belle." (She really loves pink.) And, fine by me! This generic pink dress was cheaper and easier to find than the Disney Yellow Ballroom Belle Dress. :) 
Our little "Princess Belle" got her hair cut recently, but still wanted to wear a Beauty and the Beast Hair style! So, we modified our original priness style just a tad. Here's our attempt at a Belle hairstyle for short hair.......
