Easy and secure! Cute kids’ hairstyles you can do using only hair ties

Four-braid twin buns

Introducing four-strand braided twin buns where the color of the hair elastics becomes a key accent.

Part your hair down the middle into two sections, tie each one slightly away from the scalp, and pull the hair through to create a topsy tail.

Use long-cut elastics to braid each section into a four-strand braid.

For the ends, form a bun, do another topsy tail to secure it, and gather everything in place—then you’re done! Try to keep the height of the buns even on both sides.

Switching up the color of the hair elastics by season or occasion can elevate the style.

Give it a try!

A single ponytail with braiding and a three-strand braid

The key is keeping it from falling apart! Here are ideas for a single tie with braids and French braids.

A simple low ponytail is cute, but many people struggle with the side pieces slipping out, right? There are also plenty of times when you can’t redo your hair right away.

In those moments, try braiding or French braiding both sides of your low ponytail.

Gently pull and loosen the braided sections for a stylish finish.

A finish that looks like it was styled at a salon! Here’s an idea for continuous topsy tails.

Whether for kids or adults, loosening the hair a bit after tying gives an effortless look and makes it stylish.

Plus, by gently loosening the knot from the start, you won’t have to worry if your hair gets a little messy during a sports day—that’s a nice bonus.

This idea only uses two hair ties, so it’s highly recommended.

Even a simple low ponytail can look this beautiful by doing three quick topsy twists.

There may be times during competitions when you need to wear a hat or a crown, right? Even then, try this “poko-poko” hairstyle that stays put.

Finally, gently pull out and loosen the hair for volume, and you’re done!
