Here’s how to create an office ponytail
1. Work shine spray through hair
2. Smooth over hair for a high shine finish
3. Secure hair, low at the nape, with bungee elastic
4. Take section under pony and wrap around to hide elastic
5. Secure with a pin and spray with hairspray
step one: Work shine spray through hair
Spray shine spray onto the ghd oval dressing brush and brush through the hair.
step two: Smooth over hair for high shine finish
To ensure a high shine finish to the pony, smooth down the hair with the palm of your hand after brushing.
step three: Secure hair, low at the nape, with bungee elastic
To form the pony, collect the hair low at the nape and create one ponytail. Use a bungee elastic to secure in place.
TOP TIP: Tilt your head back to achieve a tighter pony finish
step four: Take section under pony and wrap around to hide elastic
To hide the elastic bungee, take a small section of hair from underneath the ponytail and wrap it around the base of the pony.
step five: Secure with a pin and spray with hairspray
For a high shine vinyl finish, pin the office pony into place and generously spray hairspray on to base of the ponytail.
