Step 1: SECTION HAIR
Section out face-framing pieces and the lower section of hair. These pieces will be pinned up at the end. Take a section from your ear to the top of your crown, then begin a ponytail but don’t pull the hair all the way through—this will create a loop.
Step 2: CREATE 2 BUNS
With the remaining hair, create a second ponytail right below the first one. Repeat the previous step by not pulling the hair all the way through, forming two buns.
Step 3: LOOP IT TIL YOU LOVE IT!
Put your fingers through the bottom bun and loop it over the top bun, creating a voluminous, messy updo. Pull and tug on the bun, adjusting the pieces until you love the shape and texture.
Step 4: PIN AND ADD TEXTURE
Take the remaining face-framing pieces and pin up any sections you don’t want left down. Use a curling iron to add soft waves for a tousled look, or smooth them down for a sleek finish. For extra dimension, twist sections before pinning them. Secure with clips or bobby pins, then finish with hairspray or texture spray as needed for a flawless, long-lasting style!
