You can always braid them. One braid, two braids, three....braid the braids together. you could do high ponytails or low ponytails. make them into buns....like Princess Lea or more to the back and top of your head. Put different kinds of rubber bands or hair tie things around them. Guess it also depends on how long your hair is what you can do with them.

Hey Ponytailhead!!

I have a 4 yr old daughter. Her hair is to her waist. Her hair is very fine so just a reg. ponytail fails out very quickly, so I have to be creative on ponytails and I get bored very quickly, so I have a few ideas that might help you.
1. Divide you hair into 2 sections. 1 section being from your ears to your your forehead and then the 2 section being from your ears back. secure the back section. Make sure your hair is wet and tangle free. 2. Part the 1st section down the middle, then on the right side divide into 4 section and braid; you will have 4 small braided sections, repeat same thing on the left side, secure the ends of braids with poly bands. 3. Now for the back section, divide in the back section down the middle put into what some people call dog ears, pig tails,whatever, you have a ponytail on each side of your head. 4. Now work on the left dog ear or whatever u call it divide into small sections and braid you should have 5 to 6 small braids depending on what length hair you have. 5. After you have both of your dog ears braided into 5-6 seperate small braids. You`re nearly finished. This is the tricky point. Take the braids from the front section 1 braid at a time, try to do them in order, wrap them around the ponytail holder that is holding up the dog ear, Secure the braids around the ponytail holder with clear poly bands, leave the ends of the braids hanging out, the part that isn`t braided. 6. Okay once you have done this on both sides, You can leave it this way or you can take the braids from the dog ears and secure the ends of them around the ponytail holder, Then slip a pretty scrunchie or decorative ponytail holder around the dog ears to hide any noticeable polybands. Note when you 1st secure the dog ears up use a some type of ponytail holder that is strong not a poly band, something like the good old fashioned pony tail holder. I hope I didn`t confuse you. My daughter get some many looks and so many people who just want to touch her hair or just want to look and say OH how beautiful!!! It looks hard but its not if you can get a friend to help it will prob. be easier. If you need more help feel free to email me @ lbchik4473@aol.com
