I'm so trendy, I make Lady GaGa jealous!

Are you tired of having flat, boring hair? Would you like to do something fun, cute, and Lady GaGa-ish that doesn't include raw meat or looking like a melting hood ornament? Just follow my quick easy steps for an adorable hair bow!


Brush your hair out and take two sections from each side. (wouldn't I make a cute Papillon?)


Bring the sections together into a hair band but make a small loop, not pulling your hair all the way through the band.


Divide the loop into two loops.


You can see the bow starting already! See, this seems is so easy! Put the two loops against your head.


Pin each side down with a bobbie pin to hold the cute loops of the bow in place.


Now in order to cover the hair band in the center, take a strand from your little pony tail and loop it up around between the two bow sides, and pull it tight to create a perfect little center of the bow.


Pin the center of the bow to make sure it doesn't slip.


You did it! You just know you look fabulous!


And *Poof*! Isn't that the cutest little hair bow ever!?! And SO easy!


Even from the side, it just looks amazing!


I can't even say that this was my first attempt at this 'easy' hair bow...I tried for an hour the day before! In all actuality, this was the one that looked the best! If you are curious as to where I got this hair-brained idea, you can click HERE to see her deceivingly simple photo steps. I saw her tutorial on Pinterest and I've been cursing it ever since giving it a try.


Special thanks to my super tall husband who took the photos and laughed at me along the way.

    1. At least it's environmentally friendly as a bird's nest :) But no, I learned my lesson and won't be trying it anymore...

  4. My hair is short so I can't do that, but I have pink and blue stripes and a pink feather in my hair. Strippers are jealous of me.

    Love,

    1. Oooh, your hair sounds fabulous! Strippers are jealous for other "real" reasons as well :)

    2. OOoooooo. Thank you for reminding everyone of my bodacious ta-tas. Of course, strippers are also jealous of my organizational abilities, my good grammar, and my poetry.

  5. Maggie...you freaking crack me up. I saw this one the other day too. I was kind of thinking the same thing that you just proved...no way it would be that easy... If you master it, give me the tips. :)

  6. Oh my gosh. Clearly my coffee hasn't kicked in. I just kept staring at the last two photos and thinking, Umm...maybe I'm not looking at it right cause that doesn't look very good. And now I can't stop laughing.
