STEPS
Start by taking a parting starting in the middle right eyebrow and continue to the left side of the back of the head.
Take one half of the hair and gather it in your hand. Roll the hair towards the front of the face so that you have a neat coil affect.
Bobby pin the hair so that it stays neat against the head.
Repeat the rolling technique on the other side, rolling it neatly towards the face. Pin in place.
Take each ponytail of hair and twist each hair into a rope. Make sure to twist in opposite directions
Bring the two ponytails together and twist together to form a rope.
Secure the ponytail rope together by attaching a clear rubber band at the end of the hair.
Gently pull loose sections of hair to create an arc. Be careful to not take too much hair.
Continue to loosely pull out some of the hair to create a tousled effect within the ponytail rope.
Lightly coil the rope around itself to create a bun.
Pin the bun in place so that it is secure on top of the head.
Lightly hairspray the bun and surrounding hair.
Finish the look with your fingers and mold the look with hairspray to get your desired finish.
