"Hi I'm Terri and in this segment we are going to be doing how to put your hair in a ponytail style. Now there are so many different styles you can do with ponytails I'm just going to show you a variation. So you just put your hair in a regular ponytail, start by gathering it by the nape of the neck. And then twisting your elastic around as many times as you need to. Now if you want to make it a little dressier instead of actually showing the elastic you want to take a piece from the bottom and you want to go ahead and tightly wind it around the elastic. And when you get around to the back again you want to go ahead and secure a safety pin or a bobby pin, sorry into the hair so that it will hold it. And then you might want to use a little bit of hairspray as well just to secure the wrap. You also might want to use one of these decorative hair wraps as well. Something with rhinestones or beads is a little fancier then just a regular ponytail."
