This single dad took hairstyling lessons so he could give his daughter festive hair for Christmas - and it's amazing

A single dad has wowed the internet with the festive hairstyles he has been creating for his daughter every morning before school.

Greg Wickherst, from Colorado in America, has been learning an adorable new skill, just so that he can get his daughter in the festive spirit this Christmas.

Greg has been taking hairstyling lessons to give his daughter Izzy some incredible new 'dos over the festive season, and we're not just talking a few pony tails or braids. Greg has managed to sculpt Christmas wreaths, snowmen and even Christmas trees from Izzy's golden locks.

Speaking to Buzzfeed News, Greg said, 'We listen to Christmas music, we drink hot chocolate, we sing songs. I really try to make this into a fun bonding experience for us.'

Greg has his own Facebook page where he shares his hairstyle creations, which act as a source of inspiration for parents all over the world. Parents have been flooding his posts with questions and pictures of their own versions.

After connecting with other dads on Facebook, Greg runs competitions to see who can do the best hair for their daughters, usually around a theme. For the Christmas theme he tried a hugely impressive snowman look, which has been one of his most popular posts being liked nearly 2k times.

Greg captioned the photo, 'There's another contest this week for best hair by a dad. The theme is #holidayhair. Here's Izzy the Snowman! What do you think?? Is this a winner?'
