Remember a few weeks again when I shared the awesome Rainbow Dress that little T designed?
Well that day my sister put T’s hair in the cutest heart ponytail and when she said it was super easy I decided to do a wee video tutorial for you all. It’s super short and easy.
Video Instructions on How to Make a Heart Ponytail
I just think that the heart ponytail is the sweetest little detail ever. You can put it on different angles. Even try two or three biggie tail versions oh how fun!
Easy Heart Ponytail Hair Tutorial
For those of you who like to read things out in steps here’s how it works!
What You Need
- Small Rubber bands (like these ones)
What to Do
- Start by making a basic ponytail.
- Split the hair in half above the rubber band.
- Reach through the split and pull the ponytail ups through the split.
- Separate the ponytail into two equal sections.
- Twirl each section towards the outside (so right side gets twisted to the right and left side gets twisted to the left).
- Twirl until taut and fold the ends of the hair down to meat each other to form a heart.
- Secure with a second rubber band.

That is so cute! I wonder if Sofie would let me try it. She cries when we do hair. We stick with buns pretty much in this house. Less screaming if you tell her she is going to be a ballerina.
