Love this hair do - it's not too fussy, yet not too messy, and if I can do it, anyone can.
Step 1
1. Take a section of hair at the crown of the head, use a ton of hairspray and backcomb.
Step 2
2. Pull your hair into the highest ponytail you can. Secure the hair tie as tight as you can, but make the ponytail a few inches away from your scalp.
Step 3
3. From underneath, find the approximate middle of the ponytail and put your fingers through to the other end.
Step 4
4. Grab the end of the ponytail and pull it through the hole. Pull about two or three inches of hair through and no more.
Step 5
5. Pull the base of the ponytail so it becomes tight to your scalp
Step 6
6. Your hair should now look like this. See how the top of the bun kind of goes off into a V? Gently pull those pieces forward if it happens to you and use bobby pins to secure.
Step 7
7. Secure the ends of the ponytail around the base of the hair tie with bobby pins. Spray the hair to take care of the fly-aways if you like, though if you prefer a messier look, I'd leave them like I did here.
Final Product.
