Items Needed: Brush, rat-tail comb, spray bottle, hair elastics, hairspray {if desired}.
Time Requirement: 5-10 minutes
Skill Level: Medium
Step-By-Step Instructions:
- Pick up a section of hair on top of your head at the crown. Twist once and pin. Carefully pull on the edges to create a little more volume.
- Go back to the front of your hair and pick up the remaining front (bangs). Divide into two pieces of hair and create a fishtail braid. Keep braiding until your fishtail is long enough to reach the opposite side of the head. Go back and pancake your fishtail and secure with a small elastic.
- Repeat step 3 on the other side of your head.
- Take one of your fishtails and pull it across the back to the opposite side. Pick up a small piece of hair where you want to secure your fishtail. Join your small piece and fishtail and secure with a small elastic. Once your braid is secure where you want it, you can pull out the extra elastic at the bottom of your fishtail.
- Repeat step 4 with the second fishtail.
- Just below your cross point at the back of your head, pick up two small sections and add a small elastic to create a ponytail.
- Create a flip with your ponytail by bringing the ponytail up and through the center of your two pieces. Then pull your tail back down.
- Pull on the edges of your twist to give it more volume.
- Repeat steps 6-8 two more times. You should have three pancaked twists.
- Finish with hairspray {if desired}.
