Beach hair -2

six flip half pony tail

This ”six flip half ponytail” is very easy to make, easy enough for dads to do! And it works well as a beach hairdo, although I had to tie it into a ponytail when my daughter was jumping into the pool, climbing out and jumping in again.

It’s very simple to make, but complicated to explain, so I took some step-by-step pictures:

First, take some hair from the front and tie it in a ”half-up-ponytail”. Then tie another hair band 4 or 5 cm down.

Next, make a hole between the two hair bands and pull the rest of the ponytail through it.

Then tie another hair band 4 or 5 cm down, make a hole between the two last hair bands, pull the rest of the ponytail through, and repeat until you have only little bit of hair left.

The hairdo lasts well: here is an ”after photo”, taken after a lot of swimming (and two nights’ sleep). The only downside was taking out the rubber bands after having sand and sun-lotion in the hair.

    Hi! I love the creativity in all these hair styles and I as well love doing hair and making cute styles buuuuuut I have no one who can wear them! My little sister barely let’s me touch her hair because she’s just like that and can’t stay still for more then 5 minutes tv or not. I am turning 15 and most of these styles are generalized for smaller children… I was wondering if you could make a few summer styles for older kids so that I could wear them myself.
    Thank you for reading !
