Creating a low updo on yourself can be simple following a few key steps. Based on the provided reference, here's a straightforward method:
Easy Steps for a Low Updo
This technique involves forming a low ponytail and then manipulating it into an updo shape.
- Gather hair into a pony. Start by collecting all your hair at the nape of your neck, or wherever you want the base of your low updo to be. As you gather it, twist a bit; this twisting action while putting the hair up helps the hair tuck nicely into the pony structure and adds extra volume to the final look.
- Pull hair into a loop. Secure your hair with an elastic band as if making a ponytail. On the final pull-through of the elastic, leave some hair in a loop, rather than pulling the entire ponytail through. The remaining hair forms the tail of the pony.
- Adjust. Take a moment to adjust the loop and the remaining tail, ensuring they are positioned correctly and the base feels secure.
- Wrap around. Take the tail of the ponytail (the part you didn't pull through the elastic) and wrap it around the base of the ponytail, covering the elastic and securing the loop.
- Secure and finish! Use bobby pins or other hair accessories to secure the wrapped hair and the loop firmly in place. Make any final adjustments to the shape and tightness of the updo. Your low updo is complete!
This method, utilizing the loop and wrap technique, creates a simple yet elegant low bun or updo structure based directly on the referenced steps.
