The breakdown

  • Sleek Low Bun on Natural Hair
  • Edges Laid
  • Gel Slick-Back

How it is done

  1. 10:31Section your hair with a V part: four sections at the front, three behind them and one large section at the back.
  2. 21:02Tie the back section into a low ponytail first.
  3. 31:35Apply styling gel generously one section at a time; working in sections keeps the finish from cracking.
  4. 42:03Untie each front section, gel it and comb it into place, setting aside the hair for your edges.
  5. 55:15Brush the gelled hair smooth, then join each section into the first ponytail.
  6. 65:46Lay just the side edges for a clean finish.
  7. 76:14Dry the gel with warm heat; give yourself about an hour before you need to leave.
  8. 86:44Tie the bun extension onto the ponytail and twist your hair with it to the end so it rolls into a bun.
  9. 97:44Tuck stray hair into the extension with a comb and sew the bun in place with a needle and thread.
  10. 108:14Wrap a small piece of hair around the band to hide the join, then finish with oil sheen.
