How to Make Girls’ Hair Bows
Hair Bows are really cute and if done properly, they give a cool style to your kid and also complement her hair style. From a classic bow to a fancy round-a-bow, you can make many hair bows that reflect your child’s true style. Although these hair bows are simple to make, some require sewing or using a hot glue gun. So you may want to create them yourself or supervise your child when she makes them.
Making a shoelace bow with front braids is as easy as tying your shoes and the effect can be magnified many times when you combine materials to make it more intricate. Adding them on these side braids brings a new twist to an old hairstyle. In this article you’ll learn how to make one of the very popular hair bows i.e. Shoelace Bow with Front Braids. So let’s get started.
Items you will require -
* 18 inches of strung sequins
* Three 18-inch ribbons, 1/8 inch wide
* 1-1/2 inch barrette
The pattern on this ribbon gives you a shoelace bow which looks very good and almost unbelievable. To get that pinched look at the ends of the tails, trim each end so that it comes to a point at the center, then fold the two sides back and glue them together before you add the stars.
- For cutting the strung sequins to the proper length, put glue on the ends of the string to keep the sequins on.
- Then hold the sequins and ribbons together about 4-1/2 inches from the ends. Form a loop about 2-1/2 inches long.
- Wrap the materials loosely around the base of the loop to form a small circle around it and then feed the materials through the circle to form a second loop, just as if you were tying a shoelace.
- Pull the two loops in opposite directions to secure the bow, just as if you were tying a shoelace. Adjust the loops and the tails so the two sides are symmetrical.
- Then stick the barrette to the back-side of the brow.
Add a personal touch to your hair bow with a photo of your pet, your best friend, some hunky guy, or even a picture you’ve drawn yourself. Just glue the picture to a piece of colored cardboard and slap it on the bow. When gluing novelties to the bows, think about what direction the barrette is in. If you’re putting on a picture or a message, make sure it will be right side up when the barrette is in your hair.
Braiding is a difficult technique to master. Don’t be discouraged if you have trouble the first time you try it. Keep trying even if you fail multiple times; your fingers will eventually get the hang of it. To create front braids, follow these instructions:
- Fully part the hair beside the center of the head, brushing each side into a ponytail just behind the ear. Fasten each ponytail with a coated band. Place a ponytail styler behind the coated band of the ponytail on right side, loop end up.
- Draw the ponytail up through the loop.
- Softly holding the ponytail, pull the ponytail styler down so that the ponytail is pulled through behind the covered band. Hair flips over and drops down.
- Cross-section the ponytail into three equal-size strands. Cross the right strand under the center strand and draw the center strand to the right. Cross the left strand under the center section so that these two strands exchange positions.
- Keep working in this way and crossing sections to the end of the ponytail. Secure with a coated band. Repeat on the ponytail on the left side
