Hey what's up welcome back to my channel, today I  am doing a hair tutorial, never done one of these  

play00:05

yet, but this is my go-to hairstyle if I'm wanting  to look cute, feeling a bit more put together than  

play00:10

a messy bun or a ponytail it's super easy, took  me about 10 minutes if you would like to see how  

play00:16

I got this hairstyle today then keep on watching.  ok so I usually will do this hairstyle when I get  

play00:24

to like day 5 hair when it starts to get kinda  greasy, I did put some dry shampoo in earlier,  

play00:30

because it was looking a little bit too greasy,  so the products I'm going to be using today  

play00:34

are I have the garnier fructis clean and fresh  ultra strong gel, this is a big tub of it and I  

play00:42

use the loreal paris architect 24 hour shine wax  and then you are going to need 2 hair ties, a comb  

play00:52

of any kind, just a comb, and a boar bristle  brush and just a regular hair brush, first  

play00:58

thing I'm gonna do is just brush my hair out,  I'm gonna use my viewfinder as my mirror today,  

play01:06

ok so once it is all brushed out, you're going  to use your comb, I already have my center part,  

play01:12

because thats how I wear it all the time, I  always like to do my buns in a center part,  

play01:16

I just think that looks best on me, and I'm going  to brush them and then tucking it behind my ear  

play01:24

making sure that it is nice and flat,  and then I'm gonna take some of this  

play01:28

ultra strong gel and I have a lot in  the cap always so I'll just take about,  

play01:36

I don't even know if you can see, a good scoop,  rub it in my hands, and I'm just going to place  

play01:42

this, it's gonna be crazy, it dries clear and it  is clear which is nice, so you won't have any of  

play01:47

that white residue you can sometimes get with gels  so ok I just took that off of behind my ears but  

play01:57

so you're gonna just get that all in your  hair so it is slicked down then what you are  

play02:02

gonna do is just go through with your comb  again and brushing that creating that nice  

play02:10

line behind your ears there  

play02:16

so now for my favourite part is using the boar  bristle brush I use it on an angle like instead of  

play02:22

brushing my hair flat like this when I tilt it on  a angle so it's just the side of the brush going  

play02:27

down, it actually like pulls the hair where this  just kinda smooths, so go over the hair tucking  

play02:33

it behind the ear still and just going over my  whole head with this just to make sure that we  

play02:39

have no little bumps and then you are gonna  take your first pony tail so once I get it in  

play02:45

the shape that I am holding it with my hand, I'm  just going in with the boar bristle brush again  

play02:52

just to really get all that hair and then I'll  do one side and then I will run my hand over  

play02:59

it and then grab it with that hand switching  hands so then this side you're just going to  

play03:05

brush it back creating a tight ponytail that  is important that it is tight and then you can  

play03:12

always check to make sure that these front pieces  are where you want them and then I wrap it around  

play03:19

three times in a ponytail like so and then I'm  just gonna tighten it be careful not to tighten it  

play03:25

too hard just because sometimes you know when  you tighten your ponytail and some pieces  

play03:30

like to stick up yeah we don't want that  so I'm going to move on to my next product  

play03:35

which is the loreal architect that shine  wax so I'm just taking about this much on  

play03:41

my finger I don't know if you can see that well  but rubbing it in between my hands and the nice  

play03:47

thing about these two products is they don't  make your hands feel super sticky afterwards  

play03:51

like that gel that I just used before my hands  aren't sticky at all so I'm just gonna put this  

play03:57

overtop of where I have my flyaways the most  which are typically right where my part is  

play04:05

doing the front pieces so I take a bit more  of that shine wax I am going to press down  

play04:12

the hairs that I have at the  front here because I have lots of  

play04:16

stray hairs that don't know where they're going so  just putting them in their place I don't know why  

play04:24

I'm out of breathe doing this and then I'll just  use my fingers to comb if any hairs come loose  

play04:34

so it should look something like that and  it looks very shiny now that we have our  

play04:39

placement of the hair done it is time to create  the bun so taking your second I don't even know  

play04:46

what these are called I call them ponytails  everyone calls them something different so what  

play04:51

were gonna do take your hair and just start  twisting it okay you're just gonna twist it  

play04:57

twist it twist it I do little sections at a time  just because I have some layers so it unravels  

play05:04

so twisting it and then just creating this bun I'm  twisting as I'm going and just wrapping it around  

play05:15

still twisting sometimes it takes me a few tries  but that is okay then I am just going to put this  

play05:22

hair tie on it twice it should look something  like this and then if you want you can go in  

play05:28

with hairspray but I am happy how this looks also  now that I had a mirror in front of me over there  

play05:33

I realized that my baby hairs in the back were  sticking up I'm just gonna take a little bit of  

play05:38

that shine wax and then you can just press them  up into the bun okay so I just put in some hoop  

play05:46

earrings and I think this looks really cute and I  feel really put together whenever I have this on  

play05:51

so if I'm just running some errands I will put my  hair in this little bun and it makes me look just  

play05:56

10 times better more put together instead of  just like a messy bun so please let me know
