If you have a lot of hair, you can’t just whip it up and throw in one bobby pin! For a basic updo, start by separating the hair into four sections: the top (at the crown of the head from temple to temple), the back and the two sides. Pin the top section so it’s out of the way. Backcomb the sides and back pieces slightly at the roots to create texture that will help hold bobby pins in place. Spray on hairspray, like Pantene Pro-V Medium-Thick Hair Solutions Anti-Humidity Hairspray

Finally, decide what you’re going to do with the top section (a deep side part, slicked back, etc.) and pin it in place. Backcomb any loose hair and spritz again with hairspray, pinning loose strands into the twist at the back.
