How do I hard-reset my iPhone 6+?

My iPhone is locked and I forget my password. Does anyone know how to reset my phone or anything so I can get back into it?

If you hard reset your phone you will lose all of the data and the contacts that you didn't back up since the last time you synced your phone to iTunes.

So here goes.

1) Turn your phone off completely by holding the button down on the top until you see the "slide to power off" prompt. Slide it and power off the phone.

2) Once off, plug the phone into the computer you sync to. Then press and hold the power-on and the home button at the same time. This will completely erase your phone and force it back to the factory default settings.

3) When the phone finishes booting up, it will show up in your iTunes menu and then it will ask what you want to do next. Click the choice that resets the phone back to the last backup. Your phone will be set up just like the last time you synced it to this computer.

4) iTunes will re-install the iOS and all of your old data, but when the phone begins to boot up, it will prompt you to reset all of the phone's settings again. Including the password for the phone.
