- 1). Make a part running over the top of the head, from ear to ear, to separate off the front section of hair that will form the bump.
- 2). Comb the front section forward to create a single panel of hair and tie the back section in a loose ponytail out of the way.
- 3). Hold a 1-inch segment of hair from the front section loosely between your fingers. Lift the hair vertically away from the scalp.
- 4). Backcomb the lifted segment by combing from the ends to the roots in short, choppy strokes to create a matted texture.
- 5). Repeat steps 3 and 4 until you have backcombed the entire front section to the desired height.
- 6). Gently smooth the backcombed segments of hair with your fingers.
- 7). Layer the segments together to create a single panel of teased hair.
- 8). Fold the panel of hair back on itself -- so that the ends are pointing toward the crown -- to create a roll of hair that has height and lift. Secure the bump in place with hair grips and hairspray.
- 9). Let down the back section of hair. Gather the hair into a ponytail at the crown with your hands. Smooth any ripples or flyaway strands with your fingers or a comb. Secure the ponytail with a hair band.

Wrap a strand of hair from the ponytail around the base of the tail to disguise the hair band. Tuck the ends of the strand into the underside of the hair band out of view.
