You just have to gather the hair that You want to be gathered in a ponytail, brush the hair through so that it looks neat and slicked back and You use a hair tie to tie it all together.

A ponytail is the best and the easiest hairstyle to make on a toddler girl.

Although this is a pretty simple hairstyle, there are plenty of variations to it. For example, You can leave out a strand of hair and then tie it around the hair tie and tuck it into the ponytail. This creates the illusion that the hair is tied by itself when in fact there is a hair tie hiding under the strand of hair. You just need to make sure that You secure the strand with a pin or another see-through plastic hair tie.

Spice it up

You can spice this simple hairstyle up by simply either straightening or curling your toddler’s hair.
