STEP 1: Gather the hair from the back and create a high ponytail at the top of the head. 

STEP 2: Find your client's part; if it's in the middle, take the ponytail and split it in equal parts, if it's off to the left side, the right side of the ponytail will have more hair. 

STEP 3: With a 1-inch curling iron (the Dura CHI was used here), wrap the curls away from the face and continue until the entire pony is curled. 

STEP 4: When curls are cooled, release them from the elastic. Shake out and spray with a flexible hold hair spray.
