Tools and materials:

1. Gel back hair
First, rub hair gel or hair cream onto your hands and smooth it into your hair, starting at the roots and working your way down.
2. Brush gel in
Proceed to brush the gel or cream into your hair so that your hair is well covered.
3. Tie hair in ponytail
Proceed to brush your hair back into a ponytail and tie it into place.
4. Braid hair
Divide your ponytail into two and braid each section, tying them off at the bottom.
5. Tie braids together
Tie the two braids into a knot and pin the knot so it doesn’t wobble around.
6. Repeat
Continue to tie the two braids together until you reach the end.
Tuck the ends under the bun to conceal them.
Add more bobby pins to secure it.
