Hi, I'm Linda Mendoza from Fantasies Hair Salon, and today I'm going to share with you some tips and techniques on how to do a pompadour ponytail. So I have already created a ponytail and it's medium to high ponytail on my client and I left a Y section from the top, mostly like a V section all the way to the back of her head, going from the top of our head and using our eyebrows as our guide. Now I have also pre-curled my client's hair with a half an inch curling iron and I have just done about the same thickness of my curling iron throughout her hair. So now what I'm going to do is I'm going to lightly tease and I'm going to grab sections in an angle. So depending which direction you want your pompadour to go is the way that you're going to tease. So I'm going to lightly tease and I'm not going to bring the hair up in a 90 degree angle, I'm going to actually bring it towards the direction that I want my style to go. So I'm going to continue doing angle sections then I'm going to tease until about one fourth up from her scalp. Now when we get to this front section we're only going to tease from the back and then we're going to smooth, bring the hair all to one side. Now we're going to divide the section into two starting from the opposite side that I was just easing, I'm going to bring it, divide with my rat tail. Now since we've already teased you will probably struggle a little bit for your division but once you've separated the hair, you're going to clip this hair to the side and we're going to work with this back section first. If you feel like any more teasing needs to be done, you're welcome to do it and after you're done make sure you smooth the hair when you bring it together and we're going to pin curl it with our hand all the way down and then we're going to place the pin curl on her head and we're going to pin. You're going to pin from the back and we're going to do the same exact thing on the top section or the front section and we're going to smooth, bring it towards the direction that we want our hair to go, hairspray a little to take down all those flyaways, bring your section to the front and pin the curl. Now with your rat tail comb you can smooth out all the hair that needs to be smooth. With the back of the rat tail comb you can just bring in all of the extra hair and just put it back into place. Awesome. I'm Linda Mendoza and I just shared with you some tips and techniques on how to do a pompadour ponytail.
