Is your hair a bit frizzy and all over the place? Are you dreaming of neat, slicked-back hair?


Here, I’m going to show you my easy hack for getting that slick back look.

Tools and materials:

  • Parting tool
  • Hairbrush
  • Gel
  • Hair tie
  • Hair scrunchie
Dividing hair into a section

1. Divide hair into a section

Start by creating a center parting, then divide off a small section of hair at the front of your head on each side.

Tying hair back

2. Tie hair back

Tie those two front sections of hair together at the front of your head, then comb the rest of your hair back and tie it in a ponytail.

Adding gel

3. Add gel to hair

Squirt some gel onto your hairbrush and then brush the two front sections back.


This will make the hair sit close to your head with no flyaways.

Tying hair into bun

4. Tie hair into bun

Now let down the back section and tie all of your hair into a bun. Pull out the bun slightly to give it some more volume.

Adding scrunchie

5. Add scrunchie

Place a scrunchie over the bun to finish off the look.
