If you have wavy or curly hair, you can also blow dry it straight.
Make your bun tight against your head, but not so tight that it causes tension.
Don’t pin the loops down yet, or you’ll have a harder time completing the following steps.
This will create the center part of the bow. This part of your ponytail consists of the few inches of hair sticking out of the bun.
Curl hair hanging out of the ponytail curling iron for a romantic touch. Remember not to curl the ponytail itself.
Make sure that the bun is on top and the rest of the ponytail is under the bun. If you have thick hair or want a more delicate bow, gather the strands from the left and right sides of your face, just above your ears. [8] X Research source
If you were to look at the back of your head, you shouldn’t see a sideways 8. You should see 2 solid buns or triangles.
The loop has a front and back. You only want to pin the back. If you pin both the front and the back, the bobby pin will be visible and ruin the effect.
This will make the middle part of the bow. If you want it to be thinner, split the ponytail in half first, before you flip it. A flipped ponytail is also known as an upside down ponytail, a topsy-turvy ponytail, or an inside out ponytail.
For a nicer touch, curl both parts of the half-up ponytail with a curling iron.
