This past summer we’ve seen 3D ponytails, elongated pigtails, and ponytails that reached for the sky in all kinds of colors. It’s always exciting to see how the style evolves. It has easily changed from being that quick go-to when you couldn’t figure out what to do with your hair, to an everyday style that you spend time making cute and sleek. Today we know it to be a worthy of any occasion, from weddings to red carpet events and awards shows.
This fall, give your daily ponytails an upgrade for a more special and standout look. These beauties have nine different styles to get you started.
01
Try Anime Style Ponytails
Channel you inner-Canary with these tousled loose ponytails. Mimi the Nerd said it took 30 minutes to get all the red hairbands in but was totally worth it for the desired funky outcome.
02
Try Structural Ponytails With Length
Let your poofs and your puffs hang in a creative structural ponytail (or two). Add as much or as little hair as you want to get the desired volume and direction.
03
Do An Every Day Tousled Wedding Tail
Don’t be afraid to wear a messy pulled back wedding ponytail on a random Tuesday just because it’s pretty. Add some intricate layering for depth and dimension when you do have a special occasion, and also when time permits.
04
Adorn Your Pony With All Over Floral
Flowers are not just for festival season. Make every day a curly girl celebration by updating your ponytails with bright and festive flower embellishments that stand out no matter how big your curls are.
05
Make It A Combination Style Ponytail
Braids, bangs, baby hair, knots, and chopsticks—who says you can’t do them all in one style. Give your ponytail an upgrade by adding it to an eclectic style with an assortment of elements.
06
Add A Braid To A Bubble Ponytail
Insert a fishtail or other unique braid into your banded bubble ponytail. Whether you wear it low and long or high on your head, it’s sure to make an impact.
07
Go Coming to America 2.0
Step out like a queen-to-be with the ever popular high full ponytail a la Vanessa Bell Calloway in Coming to America. Give it a refresher by adding patterns in the front, and by getting creative with the tail textures and details.
08
Make Your Ponytails A Bauble Heaven
Deck out your braided and twisted ponytails with baubles that transform them into new shapes. It’s a tried-and-true way to make your protective styles look like new ‘dos while you wear them for several weeks.
09
Give Your Afro Puffs Some Reach
Level up your Afro puffs like Ciara by adding so much volume that they look like clouds of curls. They might look like small trees, and just like trees they need strong roots, so be sure to anchor them well.
