How the Grinch Stole Christmas by Dr. Seuss is one of my favorite Christmas stories. Ever since I was young, I'd sit on my dad's lap while he read us the book. Cindy Lou Who is an adorable little Who that lives in Whoville, and celebrates Christmas.

During the story, Cindy Lou gets out of bed while the Grinch is busy stealing their Christmas. He gets her some water and sends her back to bed...and that's it. She shows up at the end for the Who-Feast and singing around the town tree, but she plays a very minor role.

Still, as a child, I loved her!

She shows up at the end for the Who-Feast and singing around the town tree, but she plays a very minor role.  Still, as a child, I loved her!  She has these cute little wires on her head and some bows...and her little mermaid dress is adorable! Pretty simple. Check out this Cindy Lou Who Headband I made to match this version.

The live-action Grinch with Jim Carrey has the Who's play a more leading part in the show. They are depicted as Christmas loving people that forget the real meaning of Christmas.

Their hair and costumes are over-the-top with bows, braids and all the works! It's a rat race trying to be the most Christmasy. This is where the fun hair comes in!

That over-the-top hair is the funnest! So, since my daughter was young, I loved doing the Cindy Lou Who Hairdo on her for neighborhood or church Christmas parties.

She was so fun to dress up and even sang the "Where are you Christmas" song. Everyone looked forward to seeing her year after year...anticipating her costume and singing.

The outfit for Cindy Lou Who is as simple or complicated as you want it to be. We just found a simple red jersey dress, paired it with striped tights and added a fur collar!

With the right hair, the outfit can be super simple!

The first year we tried this fun hairdo was 2009, my daughter was 5 and absolutely loved all the attention she got at the Christmas party.

Her hair was pretty fluffy and light, but it still worked great for the Cindy Lou Who Hairdo. This hair style would be really fun to do with long hair!

The next year we used a tree skirt as a cape, paired with a red dress and striped tights. She had just had her tonsils out a week prior, so she wasn't feeling the best, but insisted on coming to the church Christmas party and dressing up!

2 years later, since she dressed like Jovie from Elf in between, we went all out and even made the "Cup of cheer" headbands to wear, just like Cindy Lou Who in the Grinch Movie.

And the last year she dressed up this way was in 2013. Her hair was the longest, so it was easy to make it a little more special. It was such a fun tradition...I wonder if my 17 year old daughter would let me do this again this year...
