It has been awhile since this has been discussed- before C never had enough hair but now C has too much hair so something has to be done with it everyday now! We have been doing a single ponytail but hoping for some other ideas! Any fun and easy styles? Tips for keeping your LOs still during the process?!?
My LO has a lot of hair on top. I end up doing a ponytail on top of her head that kind of looks like a palm tree. She has always been good about sitting still. Sometimes I have to give her a toy for distraction.
My A14 baby is a boy, but I have an older daughter. She didn't have a lot of hair, so I wasn't doing up-dos at a young age or anything but once her hair started to grow I used a little barrette a bit to the side of her forehead as a very easy and pretty cute style. It was great for when she had more hair, but not enough to really do anything.
When she got a little more hair we did little pig tails at the sides of her head, kind of high up. Also cute and lasted for a while. Lately I've been doing lower pigtails so that they fit under sun hats.
Hmmm. It's been a while, so I don't totally remember. I had some really small clips that she seemed to leave alone. She also had very fine hair and so I was always looking at barrettes that were "soft" - ie, not metal and tearing at her hair.
Ever since LO's hair got long on top, I've been putting it in a ponytail to the side. This is how she looks 80% of the time (smiley face and all). The other 20% is either without a little bow/clip or it all down, crazy, curly, in her eyes because we are going to bed, eating breakfast, or she just got out to the bath. She does not try and pull these clips out.
I've just started the side ponytail and has been working great! I drove myself nuts with the regular ponytail since she was so squirmy I couldn't get it perfectly centered lol!
A regular clip doesn't seem to work; her hair always slips out :-(
I'll need to find some cute little clips to dress up the side pony.
