25 Ways to Step Up Your Ponytail GameFrom runway-worthy updos to two-minute tweaks, here are our favorite ponytail styles for summer |
The Laced Ponytail How to:
-Add loose waves throughout hair with a curling iron. For a messier look, alternate the direction in which you wrap your hair around the iron.
-Apply Redken Powder Grip 03 Texturizing Hair Powder, $15, through hair.
-Pull two strands from either side of your face to the back of your head and tie them in a half-knot. Secure with two mini bobby pins, crisscrossing them through the half-knot.
-Take the two strands from the tail of your knot and crisscross them underneath the ponytail you've created near the nape of your neck. Secure the crisscrossed pieces behind the ponytail with mini alligator clips.
-Gather a bit more hair from underneath to thicken up your two strands before pulling them around the front and tying again.
-Repeat as many times as your length will allow.
-Finish by tugging the hair gently outwards to create a bit more texture. Add another sprinkling of texture powder if desired.
