First, brush your through with a good brush. Then brush back the sides completely away from your face.
Then take a scrunchie or a rubber band and loop it around your right wrist so it’s ready when you are to pull your hair through.
Then gather your hair up so it’s a long tail, like a horse’s. Depending on how high you like your ponytail, you can gather it low, high or in the middle. I like low and in the middle.
Brush out any kinks or flyaways.
Gather your hair in your right hand. I find it easier to make a ponytail starting with my right hand than my left.
Position the scrunchie so it lays just over your knuckles.
Take your left hand, pull the scrunchie to the left, tightly. Then twist the scrunchie around itself sort of like a figure eight, tilting it to the left. After you do this, you should have formed a small hole with the scrunchie and the scrunchie should be in your left hand now.
Take your right hand, pull the scrunchie toward your right and pull your hair through the hole completely. Now the scrunchie should be back in your right hand.
Repeat the process for as many times as you wish, depending on how thick your hair is or how small or big the elastic band is. Be careful. Some elastic bands may break in your hand if pulled too tightly.
