STEP 2: Choose a side and create a deep, angled side part.

STEP 3: Next, leave a small section of hair out in the front; gather the rest of the hair and pull back into a tight pony. Secure with a hair elastic just above the nape of the neck.

STEP 4: Take the ponytail and separate into 3-4 sections; twist each section into a tight coil to form a bun, pin in place.

STEP 5: Then take a small portion of the front section of hair and wrap it around the base of the bun. Secure with a bobby pin.

STEP 6: Next, take the remainder of hair and twist into a small coil.
