I love the look of the top knot I know I’m a year behind in the fashion stakes but still I love it. Personally my hair is not currently long enough to wear a ‘top knot’ out and about without Woolworth’s supply of bobby pins supporting it but it was my go to ‘style’ ie my only style when my hair was long but it did take some practice to get it right {nothing ‘style’ like comes easy for me} because despite the look I was trying to achieve I know mine initially look at little more bird nesty than top knotty..
So..
After running some product through your hair to give a little texture {unless your going for ballerina look but I like the messy casual look} try the following tips to getting the look.
1. Flip your hair upside down when gathering hair into the ponytail. This will help you to get it as high as possible.
2. Once you’ve gathered the hair, flip upright and look up to the ceiling, so your head is tilted, which will make smoothing the hair into place that much easier.
3. Once your ponytail is secured, wrap the hair around the base and secure with four to five large bobby pins. Then tug the front section of the hair just slightly to give some height.
Done.
