Take the two sections above that and loosely twist them towards each other in order to create an overlapping design with the hair. Secure the pieces in their place with a few bobby pins. Then repeat with the last two sections.

Take the ends of the hair and tuck them underneath the twisted pieces and pin them down. Now all you need to do is pull a couple of thin stands of hair out of the bun and you’re done.
