Items Needed: Brush, rat-tail comb, spray bottle, 1 ponytail holder, 1 bun maker {matching color of hair}, 4-6 bobby pins, hairspray and accessory {if desired}.
Time Requirement: 15-20 minutes
Step-by-Step Instructions:
- Begin by placing hair into a high ponytail…
- Next, take your bun maker {matching the hair color} and, pulling the hair through it, slide it down to the base of the ponytail…
- Now let the hair fall down evenly over bun maker…
- Create a little separation on one side of the bun, where you will begin the rope twists…
- Next, pick up a small section of hair and divide it into two small strands…
- Now, twist both pieces each in the same direction a few times, and then twist them together in the opposite direction {this is the standard rope braiding technique, and you should only need to twist down about 4-5 inches or so}…
- Then, you will reach two fingers down through the middle of the bun maker, grabbing the twist you just created, and pulling it up through the middle of the bunker…
- Now untwist any ends,if they are still twisted at all, and pick up some additional hair to combine with your strand…
- Again, separate the section of hair into two strands, making sure to divide the shorter strands evenly with the newly added-in hair…
- Repeat Steps #6-9 until the entire bun maker is covered with the rope-twisted strands…
- When you get to the last rope twist, pull it through the bun maker and then rope twist the ends all the way down the strand…
- Now, take the end and wrap it under the bun, around the ponytail holder, and bobby pin it securely into place.
- Perfect your bun by tucking any layered wispies underneath the neighboring twist, and spread the twists out evenly around the bun…
- Add hair wax or hairspray {as desired}, and a cute accessory.
