How to use: (1): Find a hair elastic to put your hair in a low ponytail. Insert the long end of the tool into the top of the ponytail, just above the elastic, so the loop is sticking out of the back of your head. Make sure it's in the middle of the ponytail or the twist will be lopsided. (2): Stick your fingers through the loop from the head side and grab the ponytail. Pull it through the loop. The ponytail should be sort of pointing up the back of your head. (3): Grab the long end of the tool that is sticking out the bottom of your ponytail, and pull it down and through, bringing the ponytail with it. (4)The hair at the base of the ponytial should be sort of twisted over itself, covering the ponytail holder. (5): Hair style!
