How do they do that?

Part off the section in front from the outer edge of each eye and not very far back.Gently backcomb this section. Attach a band about 3/4 inch above the top of the scalp.Wrap band two to three times around the topknot. Gently grab 8-10 hairs from the middle of the scalp firmly and pull backwards. This creates the poof. Use the end of a tail comb to pull out the front of the topknot if you want more poof.

Part the back section.Band the back in the same manner as the front, but pull the middle hairs toward the front of the head.







Divide and band to add height. Use a small curling iron and curl the entire topknot in small sections. Let the curls cool off, then comb through and backcomb. Comb carefully over the top to shape

Attach the bow.

Attach the front topknot to the back.

Use hairspray to keep in place.
