Practice Blow Drying Over Air Drying
Styling low-porosity hair can be difficult because it is tougher to maintain the style. To achieve better styling results, avoid air-drying.
Consider blow-drying as this opens the cuticles, making the style simpler to set. After blow-drying, we recommend you use a dry heat protectant.

Start by brushing your hair and deciding on the parting—whether you prefer a middle or side part. Your hair needs to look sleek from the front, so after parting, be sure to apply the Sheamoisture Hold and Shine Mist to enhance the shine and smoothness.

Tie your hair into a ponytail
Start by making a low ponytail as usual, but when securing it with the elastic, stop short of pulling all the hair through, leaving the ends partially out to create a loop.
Wrap your hair
Take the remaining ends and wrap them around the elastic to hide it completely with your hair. A quick spritz of hair-holding spray will keep everything secure. It helps to set the style. To maintain the loop ponytail secured throughout the day, use hair-holding spray. This also contributes to a smooth appearance.
