Next-level ponytail inspiration ahead

Twisted Tail
This creatively twisted pony is a cinch to recreate. Gather locks into a ponytail by one ear then twist them around the top of the head, leaving a few inches undone so strands can fall around the face. Balance the loose ends with a single statement earring in the opposite ear.

Incorporate a Scarf
Rather than tying a scarf around your neck, wrap it around a low ponytail instead. At Lanvin, hairstylist Tomohiro Ohashi fastened silk scarves around sleek ponies, exposing just a few inches at the end. Try the look with this pretty printed Vince Camuto You Had Me at Ahoy Kite Silk Scarf, $32.

All Wrapped up
Here's another take on the tightly bound ponytail that uses a thin leather strap to keep strands in place. Pick up an extra-long piece of cord from a craft store, like the Faux Leather Suede Beading Cord, $2.79, and carefully wrap the length of the tail, being careful to keep the spacing tight.

Veils and Flowers
We can always count on Chanel to deliver beauty inspo. Sam McKnight created a ponytail with all the trimmings by topping textured low ponies with veils and floral headpieces. The look might be a bit dramatic for an everyday style but keep it in mind for weddings and festival season.

Pigtail Pony
Is it pigtails or a ponytail? It's both. This clever hybrid style combines two twisted pigtails to form a straight ponytail. Finish with a clear elastic, like the Sephora Collection Snag-Free Hair Elastics, $3.50, to keep the focus on the hair.
