You don’t want your hair getting in the way of building an enviable waistline, do you? Keep it out of your face but in style with this ponytail tutorial.
- Start by making a high, sleek ponytail.
- Now let your pony double up as a braid. Convert the length of the hair into a fishtail braid and see how it behaves during your workout session. Don’t forget to finish up with the Wella Professionals EIMI Perfect Setting Light Setting Lotion Spray, though.
4. Ponytail Hairdo With A Puff
An elite, wine-and-dine party calls for an equally high-end hairdo. But that doesn’t mean you can’t swear by the pony with a poof!
- Take the crown section of your hair and back-comb it to create the desired volume required for this look. Use the Hairpro HP 6059 Back Combing Brush / Teasing Brush.
- Now gather your tresses and tie them up in a mid-ponytail while creating a slight poof in the front.
- Perfect the look by creating soft, effortless curls with the ends of your hair using the BaByliss 271CE Ceramic Hair Curler – White.
5. Bubble Ponytail
Shouldn’t the bubble ponytail be declared synonymous to a fun, relaxed night-in with our favourite girlfriends? We’d sign this petition any day!
- Start by making a high ponytail, just how you normally do.
- Add another elastic after a few inches down the length of your pony. Keep repeating this step until you reach the end. Use the Invisibobble Power Hair Ring - True Black - Pack of 3.
- Tease the ‘bubbles’ of your hair pony to create a more voluminous appeal. Aren’t you cursing yourself for not being blessed by the Pony Goddess sooner? Better late than never!
