How To Style:
Start with clean dry hair with a base product already in your hair. Such as styling lotion or thickening spray. Set your hair with hot rollers, or curling iron.
This is to create the volume at the top of your hair and the sleek waves in the pony. Section off the very top and front of your hair in a horseshoe pattern and tie up the top so that it is separate from the bottom.
Backcomb, hairspray, and smooth the sides of your hair. Take the ends of the section of hair you backcombed from the top of your head, and twist or braid into a half-inch section. Then add it to the pony so it creates a geometric design and line on the back of the head.
Gently pull all your hair softly back and off to the side into a soft side pony. You can then use a cute whimsical hair tie or a piece of hair to cover any type of hairband you may have used to secure your hair.
You can do this by taking the hair and wrapping it around the base of the pony as if it were a ribbon to cover any hair ties and make the style appear more finished.
