Sections and Twists

For this style I made a straight line from behind one ear to the other, gathered the back section into a loose ponytail (to get it out of the way), and separated the front into 3 equal sections--making sure the middle one was centered--and wrapped each in a small ponytail.

I made another straight part about 1 1/2 inches behind the first and separated it into 4 sections. Each section was parted to line up with the middle of the sections in front of it and include half of the hair from each of the sections it touched.


I was left with 4 ponytails. Instead of dividing each ponytail into 3 strands and braiding, I divided into 2 strands and twisted. It's tricky and I'll post a video soon. For now, try this:

1. Divide a wet ponytail into 2 sections.
2. Using your index fingers, simultaneously circle sections clockwise, tightly, about halfway down.
3. While holding each twist in place, begin wrapping the 2 sections together in a counter-clockwise direction. You will be transferring each section from hand to hand as you wrap them.
4. As you do step 3 you will, every so often, repeat step 2 until you get to the bottom of the strands and secure it with a small ponytail holder.

Don't you love the Webkins in the background? We love them. We have many. We treat them as family.

After you have done all 4 ponytails, you can gather them up into a regular pony tail like I described HERE in step 4 and proceed with a bun or leave it in a regular ponytail.
