Have you ladies tried this trick to get the bands on? Separate the hair section you are going to put in a ponytail by combing it all together and straight up. Pinch your thumb and your pointer finger together. Stretch out the rubber band with your other hand and place the rubber band on the the lower tip of thumb and pointer finger (the fingers that are pinched) then take the band and wrap it around one more time (if needed). With your fingers (and the rubber band still on these fingers) pinch the section of the hair you wish to be in a ponytail. Roll your fingers down and forward. The rubber band rolls right down your fingers onto your baby's hair and there is the ponytail. It took me a few times to do it at first but now it only takes me seconds to get her hair up with this technique. You can also get a tool that looks like scissors that pretty much accomplished the task using the technique above. |
