Pony tails are a timeless, versatile staple that can be adapted in many different ways. Whether you want to look flirty, professional or athletic these are hair styles that works for you.
Best of all, with the right styling products, your pony tail can go from day to night.Here’s how to take your simple pony from basic to fabulous.
The Poufy Pony Tail
It is very easy to get a midlevel pony tail with volume as long as you prep your hair properly. Have the following tools on hand:
- Hairbrush
- Two tiny claw clips
- Two pony tail elastics
- Bobby pins (optional)
After you shower add some volumizing mousse to give your hair the extra body you are seeking. Be sure to choose a high-quality product that feels natural and does not flake or feel sticky.
Our recommendation for the perfect candidate is Kenra Extra Volume Mousse #17. Once your hair is towel-dried, spread a golf ball-sized amount from the roots on down before blow drying your hair as usual.
Next, part your hair horizontally, starting just above one ear and continuing in the back across to the other ear. Secure the upper half of your hair with an elastic to get it out of the way.
Then, make a pony tail at the top of the bottom section of hair, making sure the placement is exactly where you want it. Separate it into two sections, top and bottom, and then clip your tiny claw above the bottom section before dropping the top part.
Now focus on the upper section. Remove it from the elastic and tease it with your hairbrush if you choose for even more volume. Then gather all of your hair into a pony tail while incorporating the bottom pony tail. Secure it with the second elastic and then repeat the step with the claw clip.
Play with your hair a bit until you have the lift you want, adding bobby pins if you think your hair needs them. Or, you can use a light misting of Kendra Strong Hold Finishing Spray to secure the gorgeous style you have just created.
The Sleek Seductive Pony Tail
Sleek, low pony tails can serve different purposes. They can be professional when paired with a classic suit and simple jewelry. Or, they can be seductive and glamorous. Either way, the method is the same.
Start with damp hair and add some Pureology Smooth Perfection Smoothing Serum. You can either use your blow dryer or let your hair air dry naturally. This product helps tame the frizz while giving you hold, protection and manageability.
Then, use a comb to make a perfect and deep side part. While holding the part in place, gather all of your hair into a low pony tail at the nape of your neck. Secure it with an elastic band or even a wide barrette to complete the style.
The Happy High Pony Tail
A high pony tail never goes out of style. Whether you wear your hair straight, curly or in between, this is one of those hair styles that works for every person in any situation.
It is important that your hair is in its best condition to have a shiny vibe. After shampooing and conditioning, useMatrix Total Results High Amplify Foam Volumizer to nourish and protect your hair. It gives lift and volume without adding the weight that can sour your pony.
Then, gently brush hair and gather atop your head. Try to position it at the back and center of the top. Pull a small strand from the bottom of the pony, wrap it around the elastic as many times as you can to cover, and tuck in to secure.
