Princess Jasmine Ponytail | Bubble Braid
September 29, 2011
You may recognize this as the ponytail that Princess Jasmine wears in Disney’s Aladdin, which makes for a super cute hairstyle for Halloween!
For many of you moms, Bubble Braids will not be new to you as they were popular back in the mid to late 1980′s. Interestingly, I have been seeing them around lately! Fans on YouTube have been saying that some female characters in today’s video games have been sporting this ‘do.
This style is really easy to to do, as all you need is to secure a low ponytail in the hair. Then, simply rat each section a little {to add volume} before securing the next band.
After placing that next band, you can gently tug the hair up into the secure section from the remaining hair to create the bubble/poof effect around the ratted hair. Then do the same for the remaining sections.
The hair bubbles can be as little or big as you wish, by the amount of hair that you tug in, and if you secure the bands closer together… you can get some incredibly flat bubbles for an even more dramatic effect! You may also choose to do two ponytials, or use this in a fun combo for Crazy Hair Day! Enjoy!
Items Needed: Brush, rat-tail comb, 4 clear rubber bands, hairspray, accessory {if desired}.
Time Requirement: 3-5 minutes
Skill Level: Easy
* Note from Mindy: I apologize for the camera angle, as my hubby was out of the country on business when we filmed this. One of my 11-year old twins volunteered, and she actually did a fantastic job… don’t you think???
Happy Hairdoing!
