step 1
To start, make a side part and brush hair over to the side. (If the part were to continue down your face it would meet the middle of your eye).

step 2
From the part line, make three more parts and section off the hair. Secure the sections out of your way with monkey fingers until ready to style. Hint: Keep the sections small so monkey band can swing around more times and one claw will be able to secure the ends).

step 3
Take the first section and pull tightly together in the middle of the section of hair and begin twisting. Hold tightly at the end.

step 4
With your other hand secure one monkey claw at the base (preferably at the back of the section to hide from view). Then swing the monkey claw around your strand with equal spaces as many times as possible.

step 5
At the top, lay hair against head and secure with the other monkey claw. Continue this procedure on each section. When all sections are secured, play with the hair and tousle the ends that are sticking out. If you really want it to stick up like the picture take a monkey band and secure all the sections together in a ponytail on top. You could also use another monkey finger, but the band is more inconspicuous.
