Creating a roll in this way is useful for many variations of the updo.

Sweep your hair over to one side. Brush it smoothly and secure it in position with bobby pins. You may have to spray your hair with hairspray so that the boby pins have something to grip. Another way to prevent slippage is to cross the pins over one another in an X formation.

With your hair secured to the side, use a brush and your hands to fold it back over the bobby pins, tucking the ends under. They can be directed either upwards to extend out of the top of the roll or downwards to extend out at the bottom. Or you can tuck all the ends inside the roll for a neat and tidy look. Slide two or three bobby pins down through the fold of the hair to hold it in place and finish with a firm hold hairspray. The ends may be curled in any way you please.
