The following steps will take you through the process of a Pageboy using Hare Do.
Mist the Hair with Water
Mist the hair with water, apply more to the ends.
Comb the hair smooth.
Extend the Hare Do lengthwise and slide the excess fabric (equally) to both ends forming rosettes.
Two Hare Do's are required for this dynamic hair style.
Slide Underneath Hair
Slide the first Hare Do underneath the hair and lay on the neck.
Place the second on top of the hair.
Both hands hold the Hare Do's strands together (as one) with the hair place between them.
Grasp the Strands
Both hands grasp the Hare Do's strands together (as one) with the hair placed between them.
Important:
Hold both of the Hare Do's strands eight inches from the hair.
As you hold, position the hair in the center of them and hold the strands against the nape of the neck.
Twist in Same Direction
Both hands twist the Hare Do's strands in the same direction (underhand) 1 time clamping the hair.
Hand Position:
Loops (holes):
Form loops (holes)
The loops allow the fingers and thumb to twist.
Both hands thumb pushes the bottom strand as the index fingertip pulls the top loop open.
