[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][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]

It's not widely understood that way.T[b]he majority of people will understand pigtail to mean braided hair[/b].[/quote]

[b]No.  I do NOT understand that. It is widely understood that a pigtail is two "bunches" of hair either above or below the ears, side by side. Braids involve three sections. [/quote][/b]

I think there is only one person on this thread who believes two unbraided bunches of hair are 'pigtails' and not 'ponytails.'  Most of us consider two braids to be pigtails and two unbraided bunches to be ponytails.[/quote]

Prove it. Find a definition that says your way is the only way. There are multiple people here who understand what pigtails can be braided or unbraided. I think there is only one person insisting they are only ever braids. If you think that, what part of the country are you from?[/quote]
