4th of July Hairstyle - Yes, Another One!
Start with 6 small ponytails across the top of her head, 2 rows of 3.Pull some red ribbon through the elastic of the middle front pony. (Try to make both ends the same length.)Split that pony in half and wrap the ribbons around both pieces of hair. Add them in with the 2 outside ponytails in the back. (Use a clip to keep one side from unraveling while you work on the other.)Same thing with the 2 outside ponytails, except don't split them. I brought this blue ribbon through the elastic the same way, then used both strands to wrap around the ponytail all in one piece. Add these both to the middle back ponytail.If you want to leave her hair down. Stop right here. Just tie the leftover ribbon into bows and you're done! (I added some white ribbon as well just for fun.)Or, if you want her hair up, you can keep going. Make 1 more row of 3 ponytails underneath what you already have. Take that middle ponytail and split it in half. You should have 4 blue ribbons in this pony. Take 2 on each side to do your wrapping. Add these in with the 2 outside ponytails beneath. Now you can take the 2 red ponytails on both sides, wrap them up and add them both to the middle.Now, make 1 more row (of 3) with all of the hair you have left.You could add more ribbons to the last row if you wanted, but I didn't really think it would be seen and I was getting lazy at this point. Split the 2 middle ponytails on the top and bottom, then gather everything you have left on both sides into a set of pigtails to finish.Of course, tie the leftover ribbons into bows on the pigtails.
Some crazy fun hair for the fourth!
