Keep your hair style in place with this highly recommended extra hold hairspray that Amazon reviewers swear by!


Tools and materials:

  • Comb
  • Hair ties
  • Elastic

Applying gel

1. Apply gel to top of hair

First, apply a generous amount of hair gel to the top of your hair and smooth it in.

Tying high ponytail

2. Tie high ponytail

Next, brush the hair into a sleek, high ponytail.


Brushing the hair will help the gel to disperse throughout the hair.

Applying gel

3. Apply gel to bottom of hair

Now that your hair is tied up, apply gel to the bottom of your hair beneath the hair tie.

Combing hair

4. Comb hair

Comb your hair to make it extra neat and sleek.

Retying ponytail

5. Retie ponytail

Retie the ponytail to incorporate all of the hair that you combed to the top of your head.

Braiding

6. Make a braid

Now, braid the ponytail. Tie the end of it with an elastic.

Forming a bun

7. Form a bun

Snake the braid around itself at the top of your head to form a bun.

Adding hair tie

8. Add hair tie

Place a hair tie around the bun to keep it in place.

Adding bobby pins

9. Add bobby pins

Now, add some bobby pins to stop it from wobbling around.

Adding hairspray

10. Add hairspray

The final step is to spray some hairspray onto a toothbrush and then gently brush that over the hair.
