How to make updos with a ponytail

Love the ponytail

The ponytail is the most basic updo of all and to which we resort on any occasion. However, many of us always wear it the same but we have discovered that we can get much more out of our hair if we dare with new ways of doing them. Attentive

Half

The medium length of the ponytail with all the hair back is one of the most popular. It is simple and can be really pretty even on special occasions. If not, check out Sarah Jessica Parker's look. Also, if you have an elongated face like the actress, you will look super favored.

Low

Low ponytails are the most elegant of all and you see that they can be worn even with half a hair. We really like them when they are parted in the middle, more or less polished.

high

High ponytails are the most casual and sexy. Kim Kardashian often uses them a lot. The key is in the volume of the ponytail itself, so it is ideal for the day after having worn waves. These are usually done with all the hair back. If you want to learn how to make a longer ponytail, don't miss this video.

Pigtail bubble

Lately it is one of the most popular and it looks great and has no mystery. You just have to add more rubbers every several inches and then hollow out the spaces. You can make it high or low.

With bangs

Pigtails with bangs are very popular this year. You just have to leave out the front strands to frame the face.

Ponytail 'Jasmine'

This ponytail is gaining a lot of popularity lately. The key is to keep the ponytail as high as possible and to cover the elastic with a wide strand of hair. To top it off, you can slightly curl the ends.

With stripe

Side-parted ponytails look very stylish and are even easier to do than those that pull all the hair out of the face.

With volume

If you want a ponytail with as much volume as Kristin Cavallari's there is a trick that works. Attach two bobby pins to the bottom of the elastic so that it lifts the hair. You also have specific accessories for this and that are placed inside the rubber.

Super polished

Very highly polished ponytails are being a big hit this season. You just have to use a styling gel so that a hair does not move.

Effortless

Instead of using a rubber band, you can also make a ponytail with bobby pins. It will be down, like Alessandra Ambrosio's, but very chic.

Geometric

The ponytail that Bella Hadid wears is very structured and almost seems made with a square and bevel. You have to draw very straight lines so it is essential to use a comb to mark the lines. Afterwards, you will have to apply a styling gel to fix everything.

Casual

Keep your center parting, it doesn't matter if it's twisted, but only in the front. Then comb your hair back using only your fingers and make the ponytail mid-length. Do not worry if it is disheveled because it is the effect we are looking for.

With waves

We love how a wavy ponytail looks. It is natural and is very sophisticated. To avoid breaking them, comb your fingers through and create some volume at the top of your head if you have a round face, like Alicia Vikander.

Wedding

More and more brides and guests choose to wear a ponytail to weddings. A very good way to do it is the one Victoria Beckham chose to attend Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's: low, smooth, with a part and a bit of bangs. The headdress will be optional, of course, and will depend on the type of event you have to attend.

We all wear pigtails at least a couple of days a week. They are very easy to do, they look good on any occasion and they also help us save those days when it seems that our hair is impossible to tame. But let's face it, we always do it the same. However, a ponytail can go a long way and we wanted to look at the famous ones to discover new ways to wear them . From the bubble ponytail to those suitable for brides or wedding guests, we have them all.

Different ways to wear a ponytail

Low ponytail . It is the most elegant of all and can be worn both with a part and with all the hair back. We like when it is polished because it is more elegant and it is one of the most suitable for a bride or guest.
Medium ponytail. The most basic of all , at medium height and with all the hair back. It favors everyone and it is surely the one you use the most. If you want to give it a different touch, leave a little part in the front and comb with your fingers.
High ponytail . High ponytails are being worn more and more and they are sexy and casual, as well as very comfortable. They are worn tousled, with the ponytail with a lot of volume or even wavy. Those that are a little higher than normal have also become fashionable and the elastic is covered with a fairly wide lock of hair. It can be worn with a part and bangs or with all the hair well polished back.
Pigtail bubble. It is one of the most fashionable ponytails of the moment and can be worn at any height. The key is to place hair ties every certain distance and then hollow out the spaces to give them that bubble shape.
