[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Assuming pigtails are braids - since apparently they can mean different hairstyles in other parts of the country - my guess is a lot of 2 year olds don’t have enough hair or thick enough hair yet. I do them sometimes on my 4 year old but her hair is slippery and they don’t stay in unless I do them when her hair is wet. Mostly we do two ponytails or variations on two ponytails. She has shoulder length hair and like another pp I won’t let her grow it longer for now because it gets so tangled as is. [/quote]

Two ponytails are pigtails.[/quote]

No.  Pigtails are braids and ponytails are unbraided bunches (the clue is that ponytails look like...ponytails).  [/quote]

No, braids are braids. Pigtails are unbraided. Two ponytails is...nothing.[/quote]

How is an unbraided pigtail different than a ponytail?[/quote]

There are two of them. A ponytail is a single, thicker fall of hair. Pigtails are two smaller ones.[/quote]

NO.  You are mistaken.  You can have one or two ponytails.  They are called that because they look like...pony tails.  Pigtails are braids because pig tails, unlike the tails of ponies, are narrow and not made up of long, loose hair.  You really are wrong about this.[/quote]

A ponytail only looks like a ponytail because it is thick and singular. Pigtails are thinner, as you say, since you are dividing the hair in two, but it has nothing to do with braids. [/quote]
