My daughter wants the hairstyle from the courtyard package, but I'm worried about how the shirt and tutu will fit. She will be 10 for our trip in June, but is already 5'1". I know I can get a ladies sized shirt, but the tutu will most likely be way too short. Plus she's not crazy about it. Anyone ever get that hairstyle, but without the outfit? Could she do the crown package and get the twisty hairdo?

Thanks!!

I think I read from someone that they were able to bring their own dress and do the courtyard style. I am hoping so, because that is our plan. We will be there early June, so I'll post details when I return. But hopefully someone has an answer before then.

Thanks! We'll be there June 1-8. She's really excited about doing it! I'm going to make an appointment and ask then. I'm just hoping I don't have to pay that extra $30 just to get that style. Hope your daughter enjoys it!

Couple of questions.

1) Realistically, how long will the hair stay up? We'll probably do BBB for my DGD's 5th birthday. However, I'm thinking, maybe doing it the day before her birthday, then take her to Akershus the following day (her birthday) for a princess meal. She and her mother may do MNSSHP that night as well.

2) (I may have asked this about 100 pages ago. If I did, please forgive me).
I still would like for her to do BBB on her birthday. How realistic is it for her to get a good appointment at the MK on her birthday? We're staying offsite, so 180+10 isn't an option.

Oh, and her birthday is October 31.

I think your problem is going to be that her birthday is on Halloween. Normally you can still get a decent time without the 180+ 10. But Halloween is busier, so expect the slots to go sooner. I doubt that means you won't get a spot, just that you might not get your first choice of times. But I'm far from sure about any of that. But it is a popular destination for kids being made up for Halloween.

I was thinking that the hairstyle does cost extra because it takes a lot of extra time to roll the hair. I was willing to pay it because I think is a much cuter style, but not sure if its really worth the extra money. We will be there June 10-20th, so you'll actually experience this first. I am very excited for this. I hope you guys have a wonderful time as well!

The large size tutu should fit her fine. They are stretchy beyond belief and its not a huge deal if she wore athletic shorts under it. The twisty hairdo in the courtyard is only available with that. You can choose to not wear the outfit but you will pay the 89.95 package price if you want that hairstyle. It's not more expensive because of the time involved, its because of the outfit. And nothing in that package can be changed or purchased separate except the tshirt

That's what I'm afraid of. That's why I was thinking about BBB on the day before. But will her hair stay up through her birthday?

Most say the hair will stay up through the next day. My only issue is that by night my daughter always wanted it down. And it was fun and pretty, but I didn't want to fight over it. So it came down the first night every time for us.

But I probably could have told you going into it that she would want it down that night. Just how she is. Maybe you can predict how your own DD will feel. But if you leave it, it usually does a pretty good job of staying in.

You can schedule at 180+10. But you have to call. No online for this yet. The number is 407-WDW-STYLE.

Thank you...also are the dresses on the first page of this thread (dated 2008) current? Do they differ a lot from the dresses sold in Disney Store.

I am wondering whether to bring the dress or buy the dress. Certainly saves luggage room if I buy it there but I want the dress to be fancier than her play dresses we already have at the house...so less concerned about budget than I am about style.

Thanks!

My daughter first time was in December though she was an "older" three year old (turning 4 in March) she's very shy and doesn't like new people. But there's something about being at Disney that really opens her up.

She also has thin hair but her hair is really long it touched the top of her bottom (she's since had 4 inches taken off). She did the bun and hers was huge (bigger the bun the more hair) she was completely fine with it. It last through three baths and sleepy times without it bothering her. I'm sure they'll be able to work with her shorter hair a my oldest DD always has her hair short and on her first visit she did the bun and it looked great. She did the princess diva this time around with her short hair and it was fine.

Here's a picture of the hairstyles. And my girls after they were done. My oldest DD complained of the Ariel dress being itchy (after trying it on saving it wasn't) so excuse the shirt under it.

Thanks! My DD will love the Ariel gown. When we were there last year they had a different one that was very plain and she was disappointed as Ariel is her favorite princess. Hopefully its still there next week!!!

The Rapunzel dress is very cool.

Buses will be running. Even though she's getting a makeover, be sure to have her looking good for photos on an empty Main Street on your way in! Well, I'm sure she looks good regardless, but have her in costume if you're bringing one, and do something with her hair (I usually put my daughter's up in a bun or something).

Thank you!! I forgot about taking pics on an empty Main Street. That's awesome!
