It seems my hair is too long to put in a regular twist these days. I'd like to try and do something like the following-- it looks like they started twisting from the top of the head, looped down and back up, but I am so hairstyle-challenged I can't seem to figure it out! Anybody have an idea how to do this?

(Sorry, this was the best screen grab I could get of the back of it)

Is it Sandra Bullock in Practical Magic?
It almost looks like there are two loops, to me.

Yes, that's a Practical Magic screencap! Talk about a great hair movie. :D

Two loops? Do you mean like a figure 8?

It looks to me most like somebody started a log roll pulling downward, then slipped a barrette over it, leaving the ends free.

Ya exactly, it looks like you basically just take your hair into a pony and start twisting it like your gonn go into a bun but just put it into a U sahpe and take the barret and clip it in and leave the ends dangling and sort of pull them over the barrett like a waterfall.

Where on earth can one get a barrette that large??? I've never seen one that could hold all my hair up like that.
