Hair : Color Bursting

[mysteriouza]

Bold, bright strips added an unexpected, playful pop to 1960's esque knotted ponytails.


Apply straightening gel to damp hair and blow dry as straight as possible.
Pull hair into a ponytail in the center of the back of the head.
Secure with a clear elastic band.
For color, use a 1 1/2 inch satin ribbon.
Tuck 2 colored strips through the elastic band, use the same color for big impact or two different ones for a more whimsical approach.
Separate the ponytail into two sections, each with a ribbon.
Tightly twist each section into a rope, and then twist the two ropes together.
Secure ends together with another clear elastic.
Bring the end up toward the base of the ponytail. twisting the tail one more time as you go.
Secure with another clear elastic, tucking ends underneath with a mist of extra hold spray.
