Hi, I'm Daniela Rowson. I'm a hair stylist, and I'm going to show you how to do a ponytail do. The products that we will need are, a hair tie and a comb. Our first step will be combing your hair so it's nice and smooth. You want to comb it back and comb all of it towards the back. And then you're going to start gathering the hair. You want to just start gathering your hair, it depends on how high you want it. And then you can go back with a comb and comb it out so it's nice and smooth. And if you have layers, it's OK if some of it falls forward. And then you'll just grab your hair tie, just wrap it about three times, pull it through, and then pull some of the hair forward, that's falling. So, the must-have product for this look is a really good, strong hair tie. My name is Daniela Rowson, and thanks for watching.
