All you need to do to create a classic option of this hairstyle is to follow these simple three steps:

  1. To begin with, it is necessary to divide the main mass of your hair into two parts and make two high ponytails from each of them, fixing them with a thin elastic hairband. You can apply some gel to help yourself comb your locks and make it sleeker and shinier, or you can leave it natural looking.
  2. Take another elastic hairband and wrap around a ponytail once, and for the second time wrap one of your ponytails halfway. Then you need to wrap the ends around the already created bun. Fix the ends with hairpins.
  3. Repeat the same with the second ponytail.

This is the result that you are going to achieve.

As you can see, just two or three steps are keeping you away from looking like a cute and adorable princess.
