Loopy Messy Bun

Get out those bobby pins girls, we're going to make loops today.


Start with a ponytail
Section out a part of the ponytail. I made five sections with hers.

Loop the section up over the ponytail...like so.


Here is where the bobby pins come in handy. Use the bobby pins to secure the loop to the hair. When you put the bobby pins in, cross them. It helps them to stay secure and not slip. Don't worry about the end of the hair...we will fix that later. Just push it to the side and ignore it.



Loop the rest of your sections. See all that stray hair? Here is where we fix it.


Pull the ends up through your loops. I did this by dividing the ends in half and putting each half out the side of it's loop. You can stop right here if you want to because I love the messy look. But my daughter doesn't, so we kept on going.

I curled each of the ends with my trusty flat-iron.
Then I sprayed the heck out of it with hairspray because it was a rainy day and her hair doesn't do so well in the rain.
Then added flowers to the top.


Now, I should have fluffed each of the curls to give it a messy look...but as I said, it was a rainy day and that would have just been a big old mess because we went to lunch and shopping. I didn't want to deal with a big old mess.

Loop-de-loop

Wet the hair and part it down the middle...or in my case, a slant to the middle.




Part it from the center to the ear.


Pull into a ponytail and on the last pull through, only pull it 1/2 way through with the excess out the bottom.


Pull the bottom half AND the excess into another ponytail


On the last pull through of the ponytail, only pull it through 1/2 way, only this time leave the excess out on top.


Like so.





The part should look like a "t".
Curl the pieces of hair that you have out. I actually have a picture, but my flat iron looks really gross and needs to be cleaned. So you don't get that picture.



Put some flowers or bows on the top.


There you have it...a loop-de-loop.
