Tools and materials:

• Brush
• Comb
• Elastic headband
• Hair ties
• Leave-in conditioner
• Hair gel
• Silk scarf

Twisty Buns

1. Separate hair

Separate your hair into two high ponytails.

2. Conditioner

Apply leave-in conditioner to the hair in the ponytails, but not the hair on the top of your head. 

3. Twist

Divide the hair in each ponytail into two, making two twists on each side. 

4. Wrap and secure

Wrap the twists around each other in the shape you like best, and secure each bun with a hair tie. 

This is the final look! This basic natural hairstyle is easy to do, but so cute.

High Poof

1. Gather

For this simple natural hairstyle, gather all your hair towards the front of your head.

2. Tie

Then tie it tightly with a hair tie. 

And that’s it! This is one of my personal favorites. 

Top knot

1. Detangle

The top knot is a continuation of the high poof. After putting your hair in a high poof, separate your hair into two sections, and detangle each one. 

2. Twist

Twist each section. 

3. Wrap and secure

Wrap the twists around each other until you have a bun you are satisfied with, then secure it with a hair tie. Now you have a gorgeous top knot!

Faux Poof

1. Headband

For the faux poof, start by putting on a headband. You need one that’s very tight. 

2. Slide

Adjust the headband by sliding it up in the back. Go a little bit farther back in the front until your hair gathers in the desired poof shape.

So simple, and so chic!

Sleek ponytail

1. Tight ponytail

To make this chic, sleek ponytail, start by making the tightest ponytail you can. 

2. Gel

Apply hair gel to the hair on the top of your head, but not the hair in the ponytail. It’s important to use a lot of gel to keep the hair in place for this look, so slather it on freely.

3. Brush

Once the gel is in, redo your ponytail, and brush your hair again, making sure to brush out any little imperfections so your hair is nice and sleek. 

4. More gel

Separate your edges, and apply even more gel to keep them in place. 

5. Shape

Use a comb to make “S” shapes along your edges, and make an exaggerated curly shape on your sideburns. 

6. Bubbles

Tie the hair in your ponytail with a hair tie every few inches going down the length of your ponytail to create a “bubble” effect.

7. Wrap

Wrap your hair in a silk scarf. Tie it as tightly as you can, especially around your edges, so everything will dry nice and flat. Leave it on for about 10 minutes. 

And here’s the big reveal!
