Hairstyle tutorial: How to make a twisted bun?

Perform a brushing to perfectly smooth the entire hair, after having sprayed the thermo-active smoothing spray uniformly over the lengths
Gather all of the hair back to form a ponytail at the ears. Pull the hair well so that it remains smooth.
Tie the hair back with a thin elastic. To fight against possible small frizz that could counteract the desired smooth effect, apply a knob of Mattifying Shaping Cream to unruly strands.
Twist the ponytail along its entire length and then wrap it around its base, making sure to let the tip of the tail protrude outward.
Secure the twist by placing snow pins all around the tie.
Finally, spray a cloud of Natural Fixing Lacquer over the entire hairstyle to ensure optimal hold.
