Tying half pigtail

1. Collect hair in a half pigtail

Part your hair down the middle.


Then, collect your hair into your first half pigtail on one side, securing it in place with a hair elastic. Pull it tightly.


2. Split and add 2 elastics

Split the pigtail into 2 equal sections. Then, tie an elastic about 3” from the root of the pigtail. Do the same on the other half of the pigtail.

3. Join each strand into a heart

Now, loop each strand to meet into a heart shape, holding them together where you placed the elastics.


Then, secure them to the scalp with a bobby pin, a bit in front of the initial pigtail.

Repeat the same process for the other pigtail, resulting in 2 adorable hearts!
