Hi Amy,
I'm sure your tiny princess is beyond excited for her magical vacation to Walt Disney World. I fondly remember my daughter being just under 3 and literally twirling in front of Cinderella's Castle, she was so excited. It's memories like those that you will treasure for many years to come.
You would be amazed at what the Fairy Godmothers-in-Training at
Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique can do! There are only a couple of hairstyles they do and one of them is exclusive to the Courtyard package and involves lots of twisting in different sections. The other hairstyle is probably the one you have seen on all the little girls. It is an updo, but they do slick back the hair pretty tightly that it doesn't take a lot of hair to do it. However, you might want to do one of the packages, such as the Disney Diva or Pop Princess, that add hairpieces to look really long in the back. Keep in mind, though that if your daughter has a pretty sensitive head, this may not be very enjoyable for her.
You can call for reservations at (407) WDW-STYLE (939-7895). When you do, you could discuss this with the cast member and make a decision that is the best for your little girl!
May all her dreams come true on your upcoming trip!
