Spiky Y2K Bun
HOW-TO:
Start by creating a zigzag parting using a Y.S. Park Tail Comb. From the top of the head down to behind the ears on both sides & section off each side with a Y.S. Park Shark Clip. Create a tight ponytail in the middle of the head. Take 1” horizontal sections from the back on each side & section off the remaining hair. Apply a small amount of Pattern Edge Control to the roots & a small amount of Pattern Styling Cream to the rest of each section and comb down diagonal & tight until your comb reaches the hair tie. Repeat this step until all hair is slick back making sure to leave 2 pieces of hair out framing the face. Gather all hair tightly into a ponytail & secure with a Hook Hair Tie. Apply a small amount of the styling cream to the ponytail and brush through to give a flexible hold. Using Black Elastic tie a knot around the ponytail to secure & then wrap the ponytail with the elastic until you get 1/2 way down. Fold the wrapped section of the ponytail connecting it above the hair tie, then wrap & create another knot with the elastic to secure. Comb up remaining hair & pin in place with U-Shaped Pins. Add more styling cream to hold spiky ends + a tiny bit to face framing pieces to finish.
