1. Part your natural hair into small sections with a parting comb especially when you have thick hair.
If you have thin hair, then you do not need to do that.

Comb through each section to make sure each section is fully hydrated and detangled and really good for the gel.

5. Keeping doing the other sections the same way until the entire head is finished.
6. Lay your edges with some edge control.

For those with longer or fuller hair, separating your natural ponytail into two braids or twists. Then wrap them around each other to create a small tight bun.

Tip:To create a natural and sleek ponytail, make sure your natural hair is in a small bun, otherwise, there will be a line of demarcation between your natural hair and your drawstring ponytail. If you have thick and long hair which does not allow you to make a small bun, try separating your hair into 2 braids first before gathering them together into a bun.
