Triple Hawk Updo

1 - Have your hair down.  It doesn't matter if it's curly or straight.  This style can be done on hair neck length or longer.

2 - Create a horseshoe shape parting from ear to ear across your occipital bone (back of head).  Start a ponytail, only pulling it through to an inch or two from the ends of your hair.

3 - Loop the rubber band and pull halfway through.  Continue to do this until your rubber band is too tight to do it anymore.

4 - Lightly pull on all of the half ponytails to stretch and dissect it.

5 - Create a horseshoe shape parting from ear to ear across the top of your head.  Start a ponytail, only pulling it through to an inch or two from the ends of your hair.

6 - Repeat Steps 3 & 4.

7 - Take the rest of your hair into a ponytail, only pulling it through to an inch or two from the ends of your hair.

8 - Repeat Steps 3 & 4.

9 - On any areas "sticking out", take a bobby pin (without opening it up) and weave it through a few pieces of hair pushing the pin directly to the head.

10 - Once the tip of the bobby pin hits the head, turn it and push it in towards the center of the hair.
