How To Style A Faux Hairstyle Styling Steps
Work with hair that is not freshly washed, as natural hair oils will help your style to hold.
Rub a small amount of styling paste such as between your palms, and then smooth them over the sides of your hair.
Use a flat brush to slick the top two-thirds of your hair back into a tight, high ponytail. Leave out a section of hair right along your forehead.
Pull the bottom section into another tight ponytail, right under the first one.
Mist the top of your hair with volumizing spray and with a fine-tooth comb; tease the forehead section at the roots.
Brush it back, and then twist some strands at the ends and push them forward slightly so that the front stands up.
Use bobby pins to secure the ends of that section at the back of your head.
Mist lightly with hairspray for hold.
