Alright, hey guys, so I'm just coming at y'all with this straight-up disclaimer like don't judge me Don't judge this little ass ponytail right now. I'm gonna just show you guys how I achieve a Stylish top not bun and you can also achieve this if you have short hair as well. You just need really good holding gel I do have a pixie cut as you guys may have known and I was able to actually get my hair up in a ponytail Like so so anyway like I said don't judge me don't judge this ponytail because I know it looks a mess So I'm gonna go ahead and jump right into the video So I'm gonna take my eco-styler gel. It's like one of the best gels that are out nowadays and all I did was I basically just geled my hair up My hair is freshly washed so I just geled my hair up to my liking and I'm just taking my Nairobi Falling wrap lotion now and I'm just gonna be applying it to the sides of my hair Just like I would do if I was wrapping my hair for like a pixie cut or A certain style like that. So I'm just basically applying that to you know the undercut of the hair and Just applying enough for it so that it lays down flat and I'm just basically applying it to the sides and to the back and I really want this Style to be really really flat on the sides So I'm gonna be brushing in the foamy wrap lotion so that it's like really really Concentrated in the hair and I'm just basically just putting more on to where I feel that it needs it and I am just You know brushing the hair and just making sure that it's really really flat Styling it and just kind of forming the hair to my face and Just things so that it looks decent and it's not like straight down flat on the sides So then I'm gonna take my My wrapping paper you guys see me use this and one of my previous videos So I'm just gonna do the same thing just apply it to the back and sides of the hair just so that I can get that extra extra Flatness on the side honey We'll need nothing sticking up no flyaways or anything like that. So this is gonna help Them too lay down So the hair that I'm using is a jumbo braiding hair Jumbo braiding hair. It's by lobby ball seeking use whatever brand you want. I just so happy to pick this one up What I'm doing right now is just basically trying to taper the hair down to the ends and then I'm gonna take this rubber band here That's already on the hair and it's super super easy and it works out really good this way So you can just take that ribbon apply it to your Pony tail if you want to apply another hair tie you can it's all preference So basically what you're gonna do is you're gonna keep the two strands of hair to the side like I like you see one in the back and one here that I'm twisting around and you just take one strand and you just basically just twist around and Twisting twisting twisting and you keep that loose hair the loose strand like Under the hair that you're twisting if that makes any sense So you see how I'm kind of wrapping it around going on top of the strand of hair that's loose and just wrapping it around my ponytail And it's all up to you as far as how tight you want to go the tighter You go on the twist to hire the bun is I really don't like those really really high buns So I'm not really tying it too tight, but I'm tying it where I'm tying it enough to where I know that it's pretty secure And as you can see I didn't have to use any body pans I just basically tapered the hair all the way into the bun and just kind of tucked it as I went So now I'm gonna take the other loose strand of hair and twist it the opposite way around and The same idea guys just twisted twisted twisted and Kind of form it as you go because you don't want it to be flat. You don't want it to be too tall I mean really it's up to you guys, but I mean I wanted to look more like a bun not like a pile of shit Just kidding, but anyway, I'm just tying it as you can see you see how when I tied a little tighter It kind of got a little higher and I mean this is probably the highest length that I would go because my head is already long My head is already big and I don't really need anything to accentuate that at all So instead of me going underneath at the bottom or at the base of the bun I'm just kind of taking that loose piece and doing it like At the second step or the second I don't know how to but basically I'm not putting it to the bottom I'm putting it to the top and that little extra piece of strand of hair is actually tightening up That last piece of strand that I wrapped around so it's pretty secure. I mean I'm not gonna be doing anything well and crazy to where You know it'll fall out, but it's pretty tight So any loose strands you just want to cut those off Just to make things look a little bit more Little bit more uniform Some people like to keep the loose strand because it looks more natural I mean it's like I said it's all up to you So I'm basically just going to be taking off that wrapping paper and And my hair is not completely dry at this point, but it's okay So I'm just basically just brushing the hair down. It's you know, it's it's air dry So I'm gonna take my echo styler gel again and y'all know we all have that the edge toothbrush And make them baby edges honey So I'm just trying to just make it look a little bit more Swirly at the top so it's not so straight back because honey this forehead is big But that's okay That's how God bless me So here is the completed look Sorry, I guys I didn't really show you the parting on this hair because that was like the hardest part of this style It's getting that part perfect especially when your hair is short in the back like this But I think I did pretty good So I really hope you guys enjoyed. Thank you guys for watching. I'll see you in the next video
