Generally speaking, the higher you go, the more glam the look. To learn what suits you, you need to play around with different heights," says Ava Holland, Artistic Director at Gielly Green Salon. "Some people don’t suit or feel comfortable with all their hair tight and clean off their face. So think about where you're going, what you're doing, and most importantly, what makes you feel confident. This is the fun part! Are you looking for a relaxed or dressed-up style? Low, textured ponytails have a totally different feeling than super-stylized ones that sit at the crown or accessorized hair clips hairstyles incorporating a pony. Match your ponytail hairstyle to the occasion Cloud Nine Wide Iron at Selfridges for $199.Add some light gel around the hairline to control any little flyway hairs." Wrap your hand around the ponytail to hold tight, brush all round until everything looks smooth, and then secure in place. Get your hair into the ponytail in your hand and brush again, opening your hand to take any extra pieces of hair. "For a really smooth ponytail, brush your hair in the direction you want it to go, then add in smoothing cream. If you fancy taking your curls in another direction with a sleek pony, run a pair of wide-plate straighteners over the hair, then follow Skye's tips. "If you fancy a higher ponytail make it tight so it stays in place-maybe add some very gentle back combing to the ponytail to add lots of volume." "If you go for a low ponytail, you’ll probably be able to loosely tie your hair so it sits softly allowing your curls to still be soft," agrees Skye. "My ponytail of choice is always either super low or high ponytail, don’t forget to add as much volume to curls as possible. The key with curly hair ponytails is that it's all about the volume." "When it comes to curly or naturally textured hair, you want to opt for a style that doesn't pull the natural texture out and adds dimension," advises Jason. If you have curls, a wavy hairstyle or natural hairstyles, that beautiful movement in the hair will suit a less-is-more approach to ponytail styling. It can be used as a filler or ‘concealer’ for any areas which are finer,” he says. "Think about how you would fill your brows in and apply those disciplines when using Toppik. If you experience hair thinning and have a sparse hairline, Toppik ambassador and A-List hair expert Adam Reed recommends using the brand's hair building fibers to disguise any scalp show-through when hair is pulled back. Don't be put off by the old cliché of waist-length plasticky hair pieces these days, brands make discreet, sophisticated clip-ins that nobody will be able to tell aren't yours. Still not satisfied with your pre-pony volume? "When it comes to fine hair, the trick is to simply fake it. Add in hair pieces to create what you want," says Jason. Using a wand or curling iron and curling the hair in the same direction is the most effective way to create this." "This helps give the illusion of density. "For clients with fine hair wanting to create a fuller ponytail, I would suggest putting a wave through the hair first," says Bradley Deeming, Salon64 stylist. But there are plenty of ways to cheat the look of fuller hair. Ponytails can make fine haired-types feel nervous, as a tight or pulled-back pony can expose a lack of volume.
