Start by sectioning off hair into two parts: the top half of your head in a horseshoe shape and the bottom half, which you will leave alone for now.2.

Slick back the sides of your hair and pin back underneath the ends of the teased section, hiding the bobby pins.5. Twist a couple large sections from the bottom half of your hair around the barrel of a curling iron. Spray with hairspray as needed.
