Step #1:
Comb all of your hair toward the crown of the head. Gather all of your hair with one hand while brushing it toward the crown.
Step #2:
Secure your hair at the high crown area with a hair elastic. If your hair is thick, use two hair elastics.
Step #3:
Take a small section of hair from the ponytail and wrap it around the hair elastic.
Step #4:
Secure the hair you wrapped around the ponytail with a bobby pin underneath. This will hide the elastic and create a more finished look.
Step #5:
If you have any unwanted flyaways around your face or around your ponytail, use a light hairspray and spray in the direction of the crown while lightly smoothing out your hair with your fingers. This will give your ponytail a chic look.
