The concept was good but the technique was pretty bad.

1) Hair needs to be pulled back tighter and more flat.

2) The twist needs to be pressed down closer to the head.

3) Use hair pins not bobby pins for securing the twist and use the bobby pins to smooth flyaways on the side of the head.

4) Should use a Hair net.

I don't want to be "immature. I'm just trying to make constructive criticism :)

Even a little stupid hair sticking out you get marks taken off, sorry but I hate.
