In actual hair or a wig?

If you mean your real hair, then flip your head upside down, so all your hair is hanging down.Then, take a brush and brush it into a ponytail at the high back of your head.Use an elastic to secure it tightly, and then you're finished!

taa-daa~! Sorry if I made it seem complicated.

Pin it to a wig stand and try the same. I might try to just smooth as opposed to brushing the hair though...

You'll need to add hair to the wig before you attempt doing so. Otherwise you'll end up having the ugliest mess of baldy wig in front of you.

Not necessarily. My friend used a wig from witchwigs.com to make her Gerudo Cosplay wig, didn't add any hair to it at all, and look how great it turned out! http://images.cosplay.com/showphoto....cat=500&page=1

She held the wig upside down, brush/combed it carefully into a high ponytail, made sure none of the netting showed, and fastened it. Just be careful because it makes the wig tighter....I'd suggest maybe pinning it on your own head and having someone help you style the ponytail.....that way you'd have a high, snug ponytail that actually fits.

That wig does look really good, but when I work for others I add hair since it'll look more realistic and I need not fear about patches.
And honestly via the caulk method a pack or two of hair of hair is really cheap. And not hard to add to. Their are ways to disguise the mesh but it's more difficult/timeconsuming.
