My daughter is in ballet and we use a sock. Pull the hair up in a pony. Then cut the toes off a mans tube sock and roll it into a doughnut. Slip the sock onto the pony and while holding the head looking down and spread the hair over the sock. Once the sock is covered slip a rubber band carefully over the hair and sock to hold the hair in place. Now the edges of the hair gets twisted and pinned along the rubber band. Finish off the hair on the sock with a comb and hair spay for flatness. Hope this helps a little.
