Little Girl's Hairstyles--Provident Living

This is something I feel strongly about, and wanted to share it with all of you. We can never be too prepared.

Little Girl's Hairstyles - Hairbow Do 10-15 min

Be sure to check out my giveaway below this post!! It's just for you Moms!!

This hairbow do is a work in progress. It's definitely NOT perfected. That is why you'll see a collage of pictures here, from different attempts to get this down. Some days it worked, some days it didn't. I tried it with ribbons and without. But all in all, it's something different to do! Here's my best (and first-go figure) version:
Begin (if you dare!) with a ponytail in the back.
Split the ponytail into two equal sections.
Think of tying shoelaces here. Oh, and ignore the ribbon.
Do your first bunny ear,
and wrap it around
and pull it through.
Next, to secure your lovely hairbow, take clear elastics and wrap them on either side of the center piece of hair. First on this side:
And then on this side. The trick is to not pull the hair out of the loop when doing this.
If you end up with these pesky tails hanging out (yep, switched ribbon),
Simply pin them up underneath with some of those fabulous mini pins or a regular bobby pin.
And another reasonable job. Ribbon intact.
Don't worry if this takes you 4, 5, or even 6 times, like it does me. All hairdos are a creation, and they always turn out different. That is why it's fun to do hair, right!?
