How To Make Hair Bows With Ribbon | Hair Bow Tutorial | Diy Hair Bow | Tails Down Bow Equestrian Bow

Hi everyone today, I'm going to show you how to make this super pretty multi-layered the hotel's down Bay. As you can see, we've got a five and a half inch by there. Five inch bow and then a layered four-inch bow but like Sergey commits we sizes - and this is to interim 1.5 inch ribbon 1 inch ribbon and 780th the ribbon, but, like I said you can mix it up, you could go as high as 3 inch and, like I said this would work. You would just need to increase the size as use templates as you're going up a little bit bigger or you could stay smaller and have a slightly more blockier. Look to your bows, depending on what you personally prefer and then, like. I said I've got my tails at different angles and slightly different lengths and, as you can see, the slightly smaller one ribbon flares out a little bit more than the wider ribbon which, like I said, gives it a really pretty look on the ponytails when it's on Children'S hair, so I'm going to show you how to make this. I'Ve already made one of the bows off-camera and I've got my templates already set up here, but I'll show you how to achieve everything and I've got 4 pieces of ribbon and I always start them all off at the same length. So I've done 42 inches from our peaceful pieces, which is the two inch ribbon the 1.5 the 1 inch and 7/8 ribbon like so. As you can see, I've got my templates here. I'Ve actually done 6 inches, 5 inches and 4 inches this time instead of 5 and a half just so. I can show you, and I've also got the 5 and a heart. The 2 inch ribbon set up on the 6 inch template and, as you can see, it goes up higher than my guide stitches line. So I'm going to show you how to adjust a stitching's on the template, so you can sort of slip that down without affecting the balance of your bow. So if I'd leave it like that, but I've already made the 1.5 inch version off camera just to save a little bit of time, because you don't want to be watching me for hours. So that was on the 5 inch template on the 1.5 inch rim. And I'm just going to unwrap it just so. You can see how about this on the template, so we're not structured, so 42 inches rubber folded in half, and I always put a crease in the middle too. So I can see where I'm centering from and then because this is wider and, like I said the wraps not going to fit around my guide stitch line, then start it at the top. With that center piece lined up with our stitch guide, and then we take one back like this ring out to the edge here and back piece around to the edge here and over like so, and you want you cross this piece to be lined up in your Eye crease centered once you're happy with that. You can pin here and here just to keep everything in place as we're stitching, so it doesn't slip on a template or anything like that and, as always, I always start from above and come up from above and I'll show you my stitch placements once done it Because, like I said, I'm terrible at counting along as I'm doing, this don't worry as much on these templates on these kinds of styles. Of bow of getting your stitches is even if you can row in, if not don't worry too much, because it's sort of hidden within the sinking so, like I said it's not as big deal as some of some of the other styles. I do and again when you come in through this cross here, make sure again that that cross is right in the center of the guide area right, so in a second I'm coming to the limits of my guides. So what I can do now, I've got most must inches in and everything's all sorted. What you can do is slip it down a little bit. So it's back to the top you guide and then you can place your last stitches in and it's still even it's still across and, as you can see in one two three out and on the back, you'll have one two three four. Okay, so, like I said, that's all you do you just unclip slip it down a little bit because, like I said this is just a guide, it's not what we're cinching on. We just use the templates to keep the shape the same shapes and the same you loops the same width because like so, if I do things freehand, I can do it, but I have to seriously concentrate because, because I have this racks here, it's a learning challenge And it means that my depth perception goes off a little bit and when that happens, I sort of naturally start making all of my bows little bit off to the left and it's not until someone else looks at it or if I've done it. Rarely off that. I will actually notice that so, like I said, that's why I like. The template is because with guidelines and the loops and everything, it means that you can always pretty much guarantee that you're gon na get the same results every time and he loops are always going to be even on any sizes that you done them like. I said that's what I like about them so, like I said, cinch as normal and then stitch off in the back and like I said that was to increment on the 6-inch template and you can buy the templates in the UK from measurement control, I'll link. The information in the description box below for you, I have quite a few tutorials - actually use them I'll. Just tie off my thread again, so we've got the two inch version and the 1.5 inch version, those guys and then the last one we're gon na do. Is this is a layered version and it's exactly the same principle as you can see, it's already been pinged on a template, and this is the 4 inch template now. The only difference in this is folded in half, but here, as you can see, the 783 bin' is directly on top of that right in the middle and all I do just to make sure that doesn't slip as a pop. My stitches in is pin that centered. So you know and again when we're wrapping it, you want to making sure that you've got your right amount on the other side, just to make sure it stays balanced. But just take that against template because, like I said that she sent a guide and it just stops. You'Re wasting too much ribbon because, like I said, it'll be meaning that we're balancing the amount that we're using on both sides so pinners before go around right against the edge and then forward and again that one round, just under and across. As you can see a minute, it's not even with our guide, so just them until you cross shape here is lined up with that Center. Like so same on the back make sure this is some turret centered, once you're happy with everything you can flip and as you can see from when it's on my template, you can still see that the ribbon is nice and even on each side. So this is still centered all the way across without any sort of ribbon or opinion, or anything like that and, as you can see, compared to the other ones, these flare out a little bit more, which is where it gives you the look this bit of the Look that comes out instead of down so, like I said, that's that's the difference and, like I said, if you wanted them slightly shorter, you could sort of angle them. What you do is the more downward you angle them like. I said, you'll get more down. If you do them closer further up like this, you get the wider flare out like that, so it's entirely personal preferences, but like so, if you wanted them to fall more like those two straight down like I said, adjust it on your template until you cross this, A bit further like this and then, like I said, you'll get there more straight fall. So it's entirely up to you, which you prefer. I prefer the like slightly flared version, so I'm going to pin mine on the template like so I will show everybody a couple of ways to so. You can play around because that's the very best thing about ribbon. In my opinion, it's all a lot about personal preferences and you can sort of decide how you like to do things and how you like to build. You bows once you've learned techniques and again always start from above on the first corner of that cross, and you always want to be doing your last stitch up through here and try and stay centered on usage guide as well work where, where you can and now That'S all in place somehow, or we can take that pin out move that out the way I'm gon na do the last stitch. Oh and again, crying do is even possible, but, like I said, don't be overly concerned on these because we can't inch it together. So that's how it goes for them. You take the plates off like so slide it off a template well by and then cinch it all together like so get it all nicely, lined up wrap a good couple of times, so it's nice and tight and nothing's gon na shout it out and then stick Chopping you back, how are you personally prefer? Okay, that's nice and tight OOP. There we go and then, like I said, I'm just not just my lips a little bit like so as you can see, I've got a nice like full effect and our loops on all three of our those are all nicely squared and even on each one. I'Ve left the thread through this last one here, because it's right in the center and what I personally do instead of gluing is I go right through the center of the 1.5 inch like so, and then you can pull that. So that's completely busted against that one, and then you can do exactly the same with this one straight through the center of that two-inch version like so, and pull that all the way just everything. So it's lined up how you want it to line up like so and then pull nice and tight. Make sure you tails are on the right side and wrap around a couple of times nice and tight, and then you can do a last stitcher in the back, and that is just an alternative. I didn't glue between the layers because I think a box, but personally, but if you use glue instead again it's entirely personal preferences. This is just how I do it. Okay, so now we've got all four of our layers together. What I do is move my first set of tails out the way and we're going to cut these at this angle. What you say, then, if you want to make sure you get them the right amount. Both sides pop back that aside and you can use it as a guide, so you hold it like that. You can use it as a guide to cut that side and on this one, because we've gone that way, this time we're going to cut it. So we starting at the same month, we should all do the other same the other side from that corner that cut that straight: okay, they're, both three from the points of this layer, okay and like sort of cut that way for that one. So this one we're going to cut up from this direction, to give it an alternative. Look so like that and then, like I said, use this one as a guide this side, so you're angling it, the Rhine, right amount, okay, so they're, both as you can see and again what I'm going to do is bring that to that point and what I'm Gon na do is I'm going to cut just a little bit higher this layer here, like I said, we are wasting a little bit of ribbon, but it's enough that you'd be able to make it mini big Taylor now, because that six inches roughly so like, I Said always use scraps for alternative project projects, I'm not just going to completely waste them and then use that as a guide cut this side same went. Okay, like said that's enough, to make a little double pigtail set too much of it via ribbon and then again we're gon na. Do this one and good up on this side and good that way, I'm like I said, use this side flip that over you can use it as a guide to see how high to do and go this side so that they're nice and evenly much the same Again and good this way well, okay, like so, if you want to use it to guide, if you good at judging, do it freehand, okay, leave those out of the way, don't forget to heat seal all of them, so we don't want them to free. When you heat say, let's see, you learn always stay in that blue Clair. Bit of the light, don't use the orange tip so that you know overheating you ribbon mounting it or getting smoke marks on you, paler colored ribbons, I'm going to do both sides doesn't need long. Okay, that's our bow just at the second and I have got nice a little bit matching 9-mil, I'm a bubble to attach, and then because this is quite a big chunky bow, I like to add a scrunchie middle to the center. Just to give it a bit more balance, but I wrap it with the 9-mil first just to give it security against the bubble. So I'll show you how to do that. So don't forget to eat, see you! I see you, you know and we'll pull you put them. It'S gon na use that excess glue and hold that down a second I'm wrapped round at least twice nice and tight as tight as you can get it. Try not to billing you some foam on the glue like I just did once nice and tight all the way around heat seal again, I want to touch your glue just here we go as you can see. That'S all nice and cute just like that, depending on what you prefer like I said, if you want a little bit of interest on you Center, like I said, I've got this matching one. It matches this second layer down or you could do a darker middle, whichever one you personally prefer. I'M just gon na do the same as my original bag yeah and you want roughly four inches, have enough to wrap around like this and then don't heat so you're. Unsure, because what you want to do, is you make this a shape like so get it as even as you can watch fingers when you do this, because that is very hot and pinch that together so you've got that and then fold the S the opposite way. This side, like so again, heat seal, that edge together, mind, fingers and, as you can see, you've got the darts going in opposite directions, and then I glue this side here, just a little bit of glue. Just there we're gon na start from the back here and then bring that over thanks, honey and then turn that one that way, then you just want to touch glue. We go like said that gives you you scrunch. It effect on you Center and these measure from the Force to inches. You can do longer these on tails alone, whole length of the blow bow from top to bottom is nine inches in length and six inches wide. So, like I said the quite big bows I like I said they look amazing on ponytails, especially in long hair and the longer the hair, the longer the tables you can do and, like I said you can go up to I've. Seen people go up to sixty inches, you know on the girls have got like hair down to their waist like I said they look really really pretty and styles like that and, like I said it in half up half down dues like I said they look really Really pretty and they're also alternatives for sort of chair bows, and I've also heard them referred to as equestrian bows, because this Styles, quite common in the equestrian competition jump, shows as the bottoms you can do like slightly smaller versions for the pigtails and updos that the Girls, you wear under their helmets when they're eventing so, like I said, there's quite a lot of options like I said you can completely make your colors up. You can completely mix your sizes up. You can do more layers, you could do four or five start with three and go all the way down to you. 1.78 and, like said, does hues bigger and smaller templates? You could even like said, do layers on each sing single one. So you could have done a two inch over three inch, one point: five over two inch and so on and, like I said, have it really big and really wide and again, like I said, you've got the options with details with how you lay them on the Template and how much you want them to flare out or in depending on your personal preferences, but, like I said, hopefully, you found that super useful and don't forget to Like share and subscribe, and if you need any more help or anything like that on absolutely any Tutorial that I have I've, got my facebook page and group in the description below and feel free to pop along and ask me any questions that you might have about anything else.
