Gather your tools and accessories
Before we begin, let’s make sure we have everything we need:
- Comb or brush
- Hair elastics
- Hairspray (optional)
- Decorative hair accessories (optional)
Step 1: Prepare your hair
Start by combing or brushing your hair to remove any tangles. If you prefer a sleek look, you can also wet your hair slightly. However, this step is optional.
Step 2: Divide your hair
Using your comb or fingers, create a center part in your hair from the forehead to the back of your head. This will divide your hair into two equal sections.
Step 3: Secure the first pigtail
Gather one section of hair and hold it firmly with one hand. Use the other hand to twist the hair in a clockwise direction until it forms a tight rope-like shape. Once twisted, wrap the twisted section of hair around itself to create a small bun or loop. Secure the bun with a hair elastic.
Step 4: Repeat on the other side
Repeat the twisting and looping process on the other side to create the second pigtail. Make sure the two pigtails are positioned symmetrically on top of your head.
Step 5: Style and finalize
Now that you have your two pigtails, you can customize your hairstyle to suit your preferences. You can leave them as they are, or you can enhance the look by adding decorative hair accessories such as bows or ribbons. You can also gently pull on the loops to create more volume.
For a neater finish, you can apply some hairspray to keep the pigtails in place. However, this step is optional.
Creating two pigtails on top of the head is a simple yet charming hairstyle that can give you a playful and youthful look. With just a few steps, you can rock this hairstyle for various occasions. So, grab your hair tools, follow our guide, and enjoy experimenting with your new hairstyle!
