Love bows? We do too! Learn to make a pretty bow with your own hair so you can feel extra fancy. Enjoy.....
1. Start with a loose pony tail. 2-3. Take the rubber band (or pony tail holder) and pull the hair through half-way. 4. Flip the tail to the other side and repeat, leaving a small tail remaining. 5. Take the tail, fold over the middle, and pin in place. From underneath pin both sides of the "bow" in place. Tug on the loops until you have a perfect, messy bow!
Here's a second option. Try a mini bow with a half pony tail! So cute and casual too.
Thanks so much Katie! This post makes me smile, big time. Let's all wear hair bows tomorrow, ok?

My hair is so thick it might look a little crazy on top of my head but I'm definitely going to try out the half pony version sometime, too cute!
