The Ponytail is perfect when your hair won't behave and you need to look chic in a hurry.
A messed up style offers instant sex appeal. The hottest hairdos don't always take hours to perfect. Just pull your hair back loosely with an elastic and let a few random strands fall around your face.
For a more sophisticated look, blow-dry your hair straight while pulling it over your crown towards the back of your head as you go. Rub a little moulding gum through your hair from root to tip and brush the hair back into a tight ponytail, smoothing out any bumps. Finish off with a spritz of light holding spray.
If you have a long fringe pull it back into a loose quiff, secure with bobby pins, then tie the rest of your hair into a high ponytail.
TIP: Always use snag-free bands in your hair, as rubber bands cause friction, pulling and breaking the hair.
Funky Ponytail Ideas:
Wear two or more pigtails. Think Emma "Baby Spice" Bunton style - either high pigtails on the top of her head that looked like dog ears, or low slung pigtails that started just below the ears for a real innocent school girl look.
Tie your hair up in knots. Hair knots and twists are a funky ponytail variation. One knot or two, twist your hair and pin it to your head. Pull a few loose strands out of the knots.
Create flirty curls. After creating the perfect slicked back ponytail, use your favourite hot rollers or curling iron to create a ponytail full of bouncy curls.
Splay the ends. Use some wax or hair paste to 'spray' the ends out of your pony tail. Wear a side tail. Pull all your hair to one side, and experiment with various options from splaying the ends to curling them. You can wear it high or low or in between.
Wrap it. Take one section of your own hair and wrap it around the top of your ponytail or pigtails. Try adding a clip-on braid or hair strand and wrap that at the top of your ponytail for contrasting texture or color.
