How to Do a Claw Clip Updo on Yourself

  1. Scoop your hair up into a tight ponytail about ear height holding it in your left hand.
  2. With your right hand grab your ponytail and tightly twist it counterclockwise two times bringing it up the right side to the top.
  3. Use your left hand to slide the bottom of your twist up, to create almost a french twist look. 
  4. And secure your twist with a claw clip, I find metal ones hold best. 
  5. Next, using your index finger on your right hand as the anchor softly wrap your ends counter-clockwise around your finger to create your bun shape
  6. Tuck your ends underneath.
  7. Secure with a few french pins.
