1. Gather hair in a ponytail in the middle of your head. Do not secure it with an elastic.
2. Hold the ponytail with your left hand, fingers on the top of the pony, thumb underneath.
3. With your right hand, lift the ponytail over the top of your left hand and drape it over the palm side of your left hand.
4. With your right hand, bring the ponytail to the right til it reaches the donut hole in th eloop that you just created with your ponytail. Do not wrap the ponytail around another time.
5. Continue to hold the ponytail with your right hand.
6. Use the index and middle fingers of your left hand to pull the ponytail partway through the donut hole, only until you make a loop. Do not pull the pony all the way throug the donut hole.
7. Thi is where it gets a little tricky. . .At this point, you should be holding on to two loops: the donut hole and the second loop. Use your right hand to open the second loop just a little.
8. Put the thumb of your left hand through the donut hole to keep it open and put the pad of your thumb against your scalp.
9. Insert the index finger of your left hand into the second loop and rest the pad of your index finger on your scalp.
10. Use your right hand to wrap the remaining hair counter clockwise under the two loops, which will resemble a figure-8.
11. Insert a hairstick through the top loop, picking up scalp hairs along the way. Exit the bun through the bottom loop.
Viola! You are finished. It looks and sounds complicated, but it only takes me a few seconds, and it holds securely all day.
