I have had tons of questions about how I do Blake’s hair, if I could start doing tutorials and all the good stuff–so here I am! I’ve made a little tutorial of her bun pigtails and y’all they’re seriously easy, like 3 minutes tops! Just remember, distraction is key (AKA: Elmo for us) and patience because it’s going to take practice the first couple of times.

• Small clear elastic rubber bands (I actually recommend, these (they’re for braces, but work great!))
• Comb (I like ones with teeth close together to get a tighter comb) I recommend, this or this.
• Spray bottle
• Small activity or show on phone

Steps:

1. Get a little show or game started on your phone to keep your little occupied! Trust me, you’ll want thank me later–distraction is KEY 😉
2. Spray down hair and comb through
3. Part where desired part is (we use a side part for Blake and in the video above)
4. Take first side of hair and comb the back up to reach into the ponytail so that it’ll stay in all day 😉
5. Once you have that little pony in your fingers, rubber band, but only pull half way through at the end to create a tiny bun. Pull bun lose with fingers to give it more of the “bun look”.
6. Repeat steps 3 & 4 on the opposite side
7. Spray back again, use a light hairspray if desired for a longer last
8. Spray bangs with water lightly and part as desired
9. Carefully add headband or bow clips
