HOW-TO STEPS

• 

  
  1

  Take a 1-inch section and prep the hair with Moroccanoil® Perfect Defense, then pinch and wrap around a 3/4-inch barrel. Let it cool, unravel and slightly pull on the hair before releasing it for a wavy effect. Mist Moroccanoil® Luminous Strong Hold Hairspray.

• 

  
  2

  Repeat until the hair is completely curled. Then, apply Moroccanoil® Dry Texture Spray and expand the curls using your fingers.

• 

  
  3

  Create a middle part and take a large horizontal parting at the crown, clipping away the two front quadrants.

• 
• 

  
  4

  Starting at the crown on the left quadrant, take diagonal back 3/4-inch sections and generously apply Luminous Strong Hold Hairspray.


• 

  
  5

  Use the Moroccanoil® Teasing Brush with tension at the root and direct the hair toward the crown and into your hand. Continue this technique until you reach the hairline. 

• 

  
  6

  For the last section around the ear, lightly mist with Luminous Strong Hairspray to avoid looking more wet than sleek. Then, repeat this technique on the opposite side.

• 

  
  7

  Gather all of the hair with tension at the crown and secure tightly with a bungee at the base.

•

  HAIR SECRET: After the ponytail is secured at the base, move up another inch and secure with a cord for instant lift additional height.

  Want to take the pony even higher? Continue working up the hair and tie off between 1-inch sections until desired height is achieved.

  10

  Take a section of hair and smooth it out using a Moroccanoil® Teasing Brush. Apply Luminous Strong Hold Hairspray and wrap the hair around to cover the ties and tuck in to secure, or use a hair pin to secure at the base.
