Styles of Pony Tails

A ponytail consists of securing most or all of your hair away from your face and allowing it to hang, secured similar to a pony's tail. Celebrities walk the red carpet with ponytails, and athletes play sports with them. Ponytails are suitable for all ages and lifestyles. Ponytails have come a long way and have become a lot more creative over the years. Accessories can take your ponytail from basic to glam, incorporate any hair texture and lengths, or save you from a bad hair day.

Side Ponytail

    Celebrity musician, Carrie Underwood, wore a side ponytail to the 44th Annual Academy of Country Music Awards. The side ponytail is simple yet elegant. This hairstyle begins with a side part, opposite of the side that your ponytail will be secured to. The bangs are also swept to the same side as the ponytail. Comb your hair back in sections and secure it at the nape on the same side as your bang. Do not pull your hair too tight, for a soft look. Curl the ponytail in sections with a large barrel curling iron and use your fingers to style the curls. Add some serum to your hair with this ponytail hairstyle for shine.

Bouffant Ponytail

    A bouffant ponytail is a puffy ponytail that is reminiscent of the 1960s. This ponytail can be casual or formal. To create a bouffant ponytail, you can make a center or side part with a bang. Use a teasing comb to back comb or tease the hair at the crown of your head. The teasing will give your hair the puffiness at the top which is the bouffant. Smooth the hair in the front back over the hair you teased. Secure the ponytail high for a casual look, or low for a formal look.

Stacked Ponytail

    A stacked ponytail is more than one ponytail combined into one. A stacked ponytail has a lot of volume and swing. For a stacked ponytail you will need at least three elastic bands. Using the first elastic band pull the front of your hair into a high ponytail near the back of your crown. Pull the back of your hair into a second ponytail right below the first one; make it as close as you can. Combine both ponytails with the third elastic band. You can make your ponytails taut and sleek or you can make it a messy do by just raking the hair into the ponytails.

Inverted Ponytail

    An inverted ponytail looks complicated and fancy however it is quite simple. Smooth your hair back into a low ponytail near your nape. Use an elastic band to secure it loosely. With your fingers, split the ponytail right above the elastic band to create an opening. Thread the tail of your ponytail through the top of the opening you just created. To make this step easier, twist the tail before threading it through the hole. Pull the hair all the way through the hole and slide the elastic band up to tighten the ponytail.
