Ponytails for Kids Using the Pony-O

Ponytails for Kids Using the Pony-O

Create ponytails that kids will love using the Pony-O!

Kid's hair can be fun to play around with or crazy to manage, there is really nothing in between. As a parent, I'm pretty sure you can relate to the struggle of having a really busy morning and your daughter keeps on whining about her hair before going to school. To calm down the chaos, you resort to putting her hair in a ponytail because it’s easier and more convenient! If you don’t know much about hairstyles, a basic ponytail is probably what you opt to do every single day. 

Ponytail too tight for your kid? It’s probably not right

The ponytail is definitely the easiest hairstyle for kids when you're trying to get out the door! But, sad to say, using elastic hair ties to make ponytails for kids actually damages their hair! Most of the time they don’t want you to put their hair up and hide when it's time to take their hair out of the ponytail. Think back to when you were a kid: you probably felt the same horror when your mom came at you with elastics...especially if there were hard plastic bobbles on the end! Ouch!

While baby is asleep, the hair ties creep

Sending your little one to school or daycare wearing an elastic isn't hair-healthy. We've already drawn that conclusion. But, did you know that tying your child’s hair into a ponytail using an elastic hair tie is most harmful and damaging when they are sleeping? Most kids have the tendency to toss and turn around more when they are in deep slumber, so there's more pressure and pulling on the hair follicle. And good luck trying to get that elastic our of their hair after a solid night's sleep!

Be wise, drop the hair ties

Still not convinced to drop those hair ties? Well, here is the deal breaker. If your child always has their hair up in a tight pony using damaging hair accessories, specifically elastics, there is a 99% chance of fraying and breakage, especially when the ponytail is always worn in the same spot every day. This can also lead to a much worse problem: permanent hair loss. And no mom wants that! Who would have thought that a simple ponytail could be so complicated?

Making a Ponytail with Pony-O is Easy!

  • Using only your thumb and pointer finger, feed your hair through the Pony-O.
  • Let go of your ponytail, and hold the Pony-O close to your head with both hands.
  • Bend each end down separately, using your thumbs. DO NOT bend the Pony-O once in the middle. It will not hold.

TIP: For a tighter hold, bend the ends down a little more. If you pull on your ponytail to make it tighter like you do with an elastic band, the Pony-O will loosen.
