    Beginning in the nape area create 3 pony tails as follows: first section will be from lower left ear to top of right ear on a diagonal.  Secure with elastic in the center of the section. The second will be from the top of the left ear to the back corner of right side ridge. Secure with elastic in the center of the section directly above the last pony. The third section is the remaining hair in the back section. Secure with elastic directly above last two ponies.

Smooth the pony with Surface Shift Shine Wax then smooth top of the pony being careful not to remove backcombing. Spray again with Surface Theory Firm Styling Spray.
