So I don’t know about you, but I suck at doing hair. I’ve always wanted to try a hair bow, but all the tutorials I watched seemed to require a lot of skill—not to mention patience, hair, and bobby pins—that I just did not have, so I gave up.
But I was watching Korean TV the other day and I stumbled across this super cute and SIMPLE hairstyle that I had to share! They called it “Butterfly Hair”. It’s a much more petite and subtle version of a hair bow, and I’d imagine it would look super adorable with the ulzzang look!
Best of all, you don’t need a single bobby pin! Just one single hair tie! Check it out:
Oh hey, did you notice my little nose drip?
How unladylike of me, teehee. 
It's Oppa's fault for getting me sick (again)!

(Please excuse my unattractive roots. I'm procrastinating.)
There, that wasn't too bad right? With some final touches and a bit of hairspray, this was my result!
Now a few words of precaution (i.e., learn from my mistakes): Again, try to use an inconspicuous hair tie. Also, I wouldn’t recommend this hairstyle if you have dark roots like me. Why? Because from the back, the contrast between brassy split ends, dark roots, and an obvious hair tie isn’t exactly kawaii:
Other than that though, I think it's super cute, easy, and convenient! It doesn't require a lot of hair, a lot of bobby pins, or a lot of skill. If I can do it so can you!
Sangyu for reading! I hope you enjoyed this unique approach to hair bows as much as I did. If you do try it, or have any questions, let me know~ ^^
