Hair bow - the perfect hairstyle for the little princess

Undoubtedly, long hair in itself is an adornment of any girl. But sometimes even the owners of luxurious hair want variety. It remains to choose a truly original and beautiful hairstyle, but it is not so simple. One of the winning options for small flirts is a bow-shaped hairstyle. It has a long history: back in the 19th century, young ladies decorated their heads with such a hairstyle to shine at balls and dinner parties.

Bows can be large and small, from braids or just from hair. They adorn the heads of not only babies, but also adult girls who want to bring a twist to their image. Lady Gaga, Paris Hilton and other stars show such hairstyles on TV. Why not try to do such a hairstyle for your daughter, especially since using detailed instructions to do it is not so difficult.

Bow is a universal hairstyle, because it is relevant in everyday life, and at special occasions. It all depends on how you arrange it. Will it be a modest hairstyle for visiting a school or kindergarten or a masterpiece of hairdressing with luxurious hair clips and ribbons, which will allow the baby to stand out among other girls at a matinee or children's party. The easiest way to do this hairstyle is on smooth shiny hair, but experiments with wavy strands can also look very impressive.

First you need to learn how to do the basis of the hairstyle, which can later be modified to your liking. For example, move the bow lower to the back of the head or to the side, add weaving and curls. At first glance, it may seem complicated.In fact, having made a bow out of hair just a few times, you will learn how to build it in a couple of minutes. We offer you instructions that will tell you how to proceed in stages.

• Make a tail on the top of the head, while not pulling the end of the hair completely so that a loop forms, and in front of it, the tip of the hair peeks out of the elastic. She must hold her hair securely.
• Lay the loop which has turned out on top of the head forward, divide in half and fix, having pulled in the center the tip of hair.
• Tuck the tip at the back under the bow and stab it with "invisible".
• Sprinkle the hairdo with varnish to prevent individual strands from breaking out.

• A high tail is made and divided into three parts with rubber bands at the base.
• To prevent them being visible, wrap the base with a strand of hair and hide the tip, its jokes.

• A bow is made of three strands: from the side - its base, and from the middle - the core, the tips are hidden under it.

• Take two strands from the top of your head that are thick enough to make a bow.
• Make two ponytails from them, located next to each other. They can be located both on the crown and on the back of the head.
• Tie an elastic band each approximately in the middle of the hair.
• Bend each of them with a loop and pin at the level of bandaging with an elastic band so that they look in different directions. In this case, the remaining hair will remain loose.
• Lock the bow with a strand.

• Divide the hair into two parts.
• Using rubber bands, make one loop from the tail, not extended to the end, closer to the middle of the head, and then the second one next to it.
• Take another rubber band, pass through it both halves of the bow. Spread, and hide the ends of the lock under the elastic.

• Separate two strands, one at each temple.
• Run a comb over them to make them look neat. Connect at the back of the head.
• Tie a small knot, and then a bow.
• Grab it with "invisibles" so that the hair clips are not noticeable.

To make the bow on your head look even more extravagant, add a pigtail-spikelet to it. But here there are some peculiarities: it will not be woven from top to bottom, but from the neck to the crown. Let's talk about this hairstyle step by step:

• the girl needs to lean forward, and you need to carefully comb her hair and standing in front of weaving a French braid;

• stop just above the back of the head and make a strong tail so that the spikelet does not fall apart;

• Now the child can sit directly, and you can stand behind him and begin to build a bow, as described in the first version.

This is a complex hairstyle, it is suitable for older girls with sufficiently thick hair. She represents herself a modified French braid.

• Take strands along the hairline from the right temple to the left. Leave one strand. Clip the selected hair and push it to the side.
• Take the strand on the right below the stabbed hair and start weaving the French braid diagonally from right to left down, picking up hair from one side or the other. Fasten it down.
• Return to the beginning of the resulting spikelet and insert the hairpin into the first knot. Now you need those stabbed hair. Remove one strand from them, moisten with water and fold it into a small loop.
• Thread the loop into the hairpin and hold it. Then tighten the rest of the strand into your spikelet with a hairpin. Put the remaining ponytail along the braid; in the process of weaving, it will hide in the hair. Proceed similarly to the next nodule of the braid. Insert the hairpin into the next knot of spikelet, thread another strand, folded into a loop, into this hairpin. Hold it with your finger, tighten the rest of the lock in order to create the second half of the bow.
• Walk in this way along the entire length of the braid, fix with varnish.

Before proceeding, read the recommendations that hairdressers give for this hairstyle.

• To make the bow look more luxurious, the strand from which it will be made needs to be combed. The hair will fluff, and you will get a more voluminous figure on the head.
• For the best bow formation, brush your hands with hairdressing wax or mousse.
• Do not do this hairstyle on too thin and thin hair. You will not get a chic result, and already weak hair can be damaged once again.
• For a full face, a massive bow is not the best option, as it makes facial features even harder.
• When the hair length does not allow you to wrap the bow in the middle, use a ribbon or a beautiful little hair clip. On the contrary, a tip that is too long can be “shortened” by braiding a pigtail out of it.

Hairstyle is one of the elements of the image, which, along with clothing, creates the first impression of a person. By instilling this truth to a girl from childhood, you can instill a sense of taste in her.

In the classic version, it will help to securely fix the hair so that it does not get into the eyes and does not interfere with the child during the day. Leaving loose curls, and curling them slightly, you will get a “little girl” that looks especially solemn and perfectly complements an elegant dress and shoes on a holiday.
