Quick Tips Before Starting Your Ponytail:
-Keeping your hair healthy is always key when styling and wearing ponytails is no different. Before getting into your styles, be sure to thoroughly wash and comb through your hair. Take a few minutes to deep condition and make sure the hair is completely clean before adding your products to style.
-Some stylists recommend blow drying your hair in order to achieve the best results. Avoid using direct heat from tools like flat irons but the blow-dried look will stretch your hair and make it easier to grip and place in ponytails before adding your bundles. Unless a style absolutely requires for your hair to be straightened, avoid using direct heat at all costs, most ponytail styles are created for all hair types so manipulation isn’t necessary.
-Even though perfection is a myth, you can get close to perfection by perfectly placing your bun or ponytail before adding your bundles. By placing your bun in the perfect position on your head, this allows for your ponytail to not be lopsided or sitting in a random spot on your head.
-Brush your hair thoroughly. In order to make sure your hair blends perfectly with the bundles, you want to get it as sleek as possible. Regardless of your hair type, brushing it with the necessary products will ensure that you achieve your desired look.
