GLAM UP YOUR PONYTAIL
Love your pony, but crave a new style? With a couple of tricks, your plain ponytail can go from simple to stunning in seconds. Check out these ideas from Myjellybean.com for giving your pony that extra kick!
Peekaboo Pony
Do you usually wear your pony low? Give it a flirty update by positioning it to one side of your nape.
It's a Wrap
Steal this celebrity trick for making your pony cuter. After you pull your hair into an elastic, grab a thick strand of hair from underneath the ponytail and wrap it around and around the elastic. Then secure the end with a bobby pin below the ponytail.
You're Such a Tease
If you don't like a tightly pulled-back pony, strut your stuff in a messier (but still polished) do. Lightly tease the roots of your hair (by back-combing them) before pulling hair back into a high ponytail.
Curls Please
Create texture by curling sections of your ponytail with a curling iron. Form large coils or messy waves, depending on how glam you want to go. Spritz with hairspray when you're done to hold the curls in place.
Knotty Hotty
Separate your ponytail into two sections. Carefully twist each section into a random knot, then simply pin the knots to the back of your head. Experiment with pulling out loose strands, changing the knot positioning on your head, or with having more than two knots at on time.
Weaving Beauty
Use a pretty ribbon, a piece of twine or a strip of leather to create a kriss-cross effect at the top of your ponytail. Or weave a ribbon all the way around for a gorgeous, spiral effect.
Faux Fancy Tail
You can use pretty bands or stylish clasps to make a single ponytail took as though it is separated into different sections. This is a really easy way to make your ponytail appear fancy, when it’s really not!
I Feel Pretty
Take your ponytail totally feminine by using girly accessories. You could weave real flowers through your ponytail along with tiny sparkling clips to really catch the eye. If you’re feeling funkier, try feathers or beads.
Stripe It
Glam up your pony with a streak of temporary hair color, or glitter spray.
Extend It
For a really glamorous evening ponytail, add temporary extensions to make it appear longer and fuller. Use a colour that matches your hair, or choose a contrasting color for guaranteed attention!
