4C Slicked Bobby Pin Ponytail Hair Tutorial

All right, let's look, we can get this going. As you can see. I am a natural 4c texture. The front of my hair is growing out a little bit more than the back. That'S because I wear a lot of half wigs. I absolutely love them and they make my day a lot quicker and keep me a lot cuter. So what I'm doing here is just parting, my hair, getting ready to work it towards the back before the tutorial started. I washed my hair and it's still a little wet, even though you can't tell but I'm adding the Bronner brothers natural line of Jamaican Thai, castor oil and it's infused with rosemary. It smells amazing and it just encourages some growth and shine as I keep this hairstyle. I'M actually adding some high training course' oil from the front o brothers natural line. Also - and I love this order because it definitely keeps my hair hydrated and also encourages growth, so to switch it down, I'm going to start using the bun above the natural mango butter and what I love about this is that it also smells incredible, and I just Put it on my hair, it doesn't leave any residue, it takes a lot of products because my hair is so sick. It'S really really big, and although it may not look like it in this video, it is definitely all the same length. It'S just that my hair is heavily stretched, because I keep a lot of heat on the top of it and not so much back so I'm using the farm hold curling gel because I do want to maintain my natural curls as I go into this hairstyle, because The extension each other that I'm going to attach through the back is a curly texture and I just want all of it to look like it's the same texture. So I'm adding the curly gel because that's what maintains my curls as it also slicks it down to my head. So I'm adding this I'm working it through again. My hair is very, very thick, so I'm putting in the middle using this title brush to make sure that I can work it all the way through securing it back with the ponytail holder. Sometimes I have to use two. Sometimes I don't even get it all flat, but what I've learned is whatever I can't get done moving forward. I can just tie it down and it's moves down the same way. So, as you can see, my curl pattern is still locked in I'm coming for you guys it's still locked in, even though they here is now laid down. I do add a little brown Joe there in the forest because it makes it a little secure. I tie it down for about ten minutes just to let it dry a little bit, but the products soak in and then I get to working on the ponytail. This hair was provided by exclusive tool and hair extensions. I love this texture. It'S naturally curly. That'S the name of the texture, they have several and it's not too tight, it's not a 4c, but it definitely gives me the extension. Look that I want. So I have two types of bob pins: some that are black, I'm going to use to put into ponytail and the other ones that are gold that I'm going to use as a decorative statement. So I just continue to wrap the ponytail around if you're putting the ponytail at a different part of your head, like on the top of your head, you will need to braid your hair down and then wrap the hair up the braid, but because this is going In the down direction and it's okay, it's my hair at the ball of my hair, shows in the middle. It'S not going to show because of the direction that the hair is flowing, which is down so, as you can see, I'm just wrapping the ponytail around and securing it as I go. I might put one in for every loop and then I just stretch it out and make sure that the hair is evenly extended and then go ahead and take my headscarf off, which it looks like in this video I might have panda. Has a hair tied down to this money, Phil yep! That'S what happens you got ta, make sure you guys are really careful. So, as you can see, it definitely blended and because I don't want my track to show what I'm going to do is part of a section of my hair and then just wrap it around the ponytail see I got one section I just wrapped it around to Make sure that the track itself is hidden so then I make a hair tie out of hair. It'S a little trick. One of my hair, stylist friends, taught me, and I absolutely love it so now, it's time to add the decorative pins. As you can see, the hair is totally blended, we're going to add the decorative pins, and you can add these. However, you want I've, seen girls crisscross them. I got this idea when I saw Solange's album cover and she has a pin, but it's seriously the quickest style. If you need to wash your hair, but you don't have time to blow it out or style it. You can just flick it back and the color of these pins shows up in the hair, which just makes it look like hair jewelry, which I absolutely love. So I've seen growth crisscross them. That'S not what I did here. I just pinned it all down the side. If you want to add a part in the middle of your head and add the pins down either side, that would be amazing. But when I add the pins, I've been tying my hair back up. I include the ponytail. It doesn't really matter because I'm not going to leave it on that. I just want to make sure that the pins mesh with the hair and the plumber I go ahead and add my makeup. I am actually getting ready for my day in this video. I just excited decided to put you guys along so fully made up. I just need to tie down just long enough for me to do my makeup, and here we are absolutely love this hairstyle when I put it on my snapchat, everybody loved it and want to thank you guys for watching that's what you love this style.
