a little bow hair tutorial
Birchbox Home : from the garden
I’ve seen a few different versions of this little bow hairstyle on Pinterest, but I like it most on half up hair. You avoid the “minnie mouse” look that may happen if you wear your hair all up in a bow.
The longer your hair is, the easier time you’ll have making the bow. However, mine is mid-length with a lot of layering, so a few bobby pins were all I needed to keep everything in control.
You can start with any texture of hair, straight or curly. All you need are a few bobby pins and a clear elastic or two. I only use 1 clear elastic, but if your hair is heavy or you need a stronger “hold”, use two elastics.

So adorable!!! I will try this when I have a bit more time. Unfortunately doing my hair is not my greatest skill.

This is so cute and looks so easy to do!!
So when you grab that section for the middle part of the bow, what did you do with all the length? It seems like it just disappeared… Thanks! 🙂
You tuck it under the bow and pin it!
Kate…when you pin down with bobby pins, does the wavy side of the boppy pin face up or face down towards the head? I’ve always wondered this for the best hold!
so chic and sweet’
So CUTE!! I am going to need to practice to get this one nailed down (I’m not very talented at styling my hair)!!

This is MUCH cuter than a lot of the ones on pinterest. Some of them do look very Minnie Mouse like/remind me of Japanese street style…

Cute! I wish my hair were longer so I could do this!
I love how easy your hair tutorials are – totally changed the way I style my own hair in the mornings. I’ve definitely become a lot more creative. Thank you for these!
Love love love this! I am always putting my hair half up in some way, so this is a fun way to switch things up! I can’t wait to try it 🙂 Do you think it matters if your hair is quite long?
How adorable! Love it.

This is so cute! I’ll have to try this after I master the French fishtail braid:)
How adorable!! Love it!! Yes, I know what you mean about the ‘minnie mouse’ look. I’ve been trying to think what that hairstyle reminds me of and that is EXACTLY it – Minnie Mouse!!
Thanks for sharing!
Would love for you to stop by my blog!

I agree I love this style on half up/ half down hair! Very cute!
Side note… Have you ever heard that you resemble Megan Hilty from SMASH?
I think you are both gorgeous girls!

Your tutorials are amazing!
That is fun and cute. Thanks for sharing!
This is like a Kate Spade hair style! Love it.
I’ve seen these bow styles before on pinterest, but didn’t like them because they looked so…I don’t know…heavy? But the way you’ve done it half way up with a little bow looks so subtle and cute. I think I might try this.
i think this is the cutest tutorial you’ve ever done! gah! i love it!! 🙂
Hi Kate,
If you are looking for ideas on hair tutorials, can you do a tutorial on a pouffy ponytail – kind of like the beehive pouf plus ponytail? Thanks!
THIS IS SO CUTE 🙂
MUCH better than any of the ones on Pinterest!
This is a-dorable! Looks much easier and lighter than the versions I’ve seen before.
stop it! you’re too adorable!
This is such a lovely hairstyle and I love that you can do this on any length hair! xoxo
thank-you for another AMAZING, cute and simple hair tutorial.
I’ll try this. Love it 🙂
Absolutely lovely!
I have to try it 🙂

Just tried this about three times. 🙂 Got it so that I’m somewhat satisfied…Still not quite as cute and well-put-together as yours, but good enough. I am really a novice at actual hairstyles, so that’s not surprising. Will keep trying! My biggest hairstlying difficulty is curling irons. Me + curling iron = useless.

My daughter did this for homecoming and it looked beautiful! Her dress was silver and she didn’t want to add color with a hair accessory, but she loves bows. https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10151913907870923&set=a.10151913907745923.1073741834.742810922&type=3&theater
This is so cute. I love this style and your whole look!
Wow, I sort of tried it. And it turned out well. It took me like 30 minutes. I have a question. I have very thick hair, and I can’t take out my elastics with out my hair getting trapped in the elastics. What can I use best to easily take out the elastics with out pulling my hair out?

Use elastics that are not rubber. Use the Goody kind.
I love your tutorials they are really easy to follow 🙂
I really like this hairstyle 🙂
I ribbon curled my hair today and I just gave this a second (and third!) try and finally got It to work! Third time was the charm for me and I’m determined that this is going to be my diy wedding hair. After the success I had today I’m sure this is it.
Thanks so much for making this easy to follow, it always looked so difficult. 🙂
OMG! Thank you! I have 2 do that tomorrow for school!
