DIY hair wrap

Curl it

Pull a lock of hair, wide enough to cover the elastic, from the base of your ponytail and curl it.

Twist it

Wrap the curled hair around the ponytail carefully but as tightly as possible.

Fasten it

Secure the loose end with a bobby pin. Cody's Tip: Bend the bobby pin slightly. A curved pin is more secure and easier to hide in your hair.

Rock it

Spritz with your favourite hairspray to finish off the look and amp up the shine.
