Interesting fact: The secret behind the wet-look ponytails at Chanel was a vacuum. Hairstylist Sam McKnight used the unexpected tool to slide Perspex tubes over low ponytails. For a less intimidating application, twist the pony tightly and slide an acrylic tube (found at hardware stores) over it. Too much fuss? Try a hair cone, like the Urban Outfitters Camille Cone Hair Tie, $5, and consider topping the look with a see-through hat.

Tongue-in-Cheek Hair Accessories
We talk about hairstyles being chic and intricate, but witty? Hairstylist Eugene Souleiman incorporated the travel theme at Maison Margiela with cheeky priority tag hair ties. Take inspiration from the look and don't be scared to use an oversized hair tie.

Put a Hat on It
Rather than wear a crocheted beanie over a ponytail, try sticking your tail through one of the openings. It's cool, unexpected and will keep your hat in place, even when it's windy outside.
