Victory roll tutorial

This is the video I found most helpful. She shows you the way I do mine first, then a more dramatic rockabilly style.

The angle you pull the hair out at will change the poof and where the roll will sit. The advice about keeping the ends/already rolled hair even with the taut hair was what finally made it work for me. The only thing I would add is that I pull my hair forward before I roll it as well, otherwise it ends up pretty far back.
