The ponytailThe very best ponytail styles. Everyone knows how to style a classic pony but do you know about all the fun and fancy ponytail styles? Learn six new ways to dress up this classic. These variations only take seconds and add tons of flare. Get your hair up and out of your way style.
No elastic pony
This is one of my favorites. I really think it adds class to this style. The very best part is that it takes next to no time at all. You will need a small bobby pin and a hair tie.
What to do next
Put your hair in your usual pony tail leaving a small section out.
Take this section of hair and wrap it around the elastic.
Tuck the end underneath and secure with a small bobby pin if needed.
The pony with a bump
This can be done two different ways. You can put a bump in the front of your hair or in the back closer to your ponytail.
You will need a pony tail holder, a comb and a couple of bobby pins.
What to do next
Before putting your ponytail in tease your hair (front or back your choice)
Comb over the top leaving the volume.
Take the hair and push it forward creating a bump.
Secure with bobby pin.
Now put your hair into a ponytail and your done.
Curly pony
This one is pretty self explanatory but it looks super cute. It can also be paired with accessories. The curly pony looks very elegant.
You will need a curling iron and a hair tie.
What to do next
Put your hair into a ponytail
Separate your hair into manageable sections.
Curl each section with your curling iron
Side pony
This is a really fun look. The high side ponytail was especially popular in the 80s so its kind of retro. Right now low side pony tails are very popular.
You will need an elastic hair tie.
What to do
Gather your hair all the way to one side.
Smooth out any bumps.
Secure with a pony tail holder
This look can be worn with no elastic look worn curly or whatever you can think of really. This is a change from the regular pony but not to drastic.
The high pony
I always think of athletes when I see these like cheerleaders and tennis players. This one will definitely keep your hair out of the way. Athletes are not the only ones who wear the high pony tail even celebrities wear high pony tails.
You will need a hair tie
What to do
Gather your hair up at the very top of your head (I find this easiest to do with my head upside down)
Smooth out any bumps and loose pieces.
Secure with a hair tie.
I think this looks very pretty with bump in the front and maybe even curled.
The low pony tail
The low ponytail the opposite of the high ponytail but just as cute. The low pony has become more and more popular especially low side ponytails.
You will need a hair tie.
What to do
Gather your hair together at the base of your neck.
Secure with a hair tie.
You can also do a low side pony the only difference is gathering your hair at one side instead of in the back.
