Put hair into a ponytail. Section off two equal pieces - one from the right and one from the left of the ponytail and bring them forward over the front of your shoulders. With the remaining ponytail, wrap it into a cinnamon bun and secure it. Next, braid one section of hair and take it diagonally across the bun and secure at the bottom. Do the same on the other side so that you now have an "X" across the bun with your braids. Now wrap the braids around the base of the bun in opposite directions and secure them.
