Make a French Ponytail

This is a cute style that works well for sports or school. It's a lot easier to accomplish than a French twist or a French braid and it can be dressed up or down.

Steps

1. Take your hair down and make sure it is well combed. If you have curly or wavy hair, you will probably want to create this hairstyle while your hair is still damp, so it will comb easily. This will hold better for any hair type if created on damp hair.
2. Section off the top third of your hair with your fingertips. Making sure the section is well divided from the rest of the hair, put it into a Make Flower Hair Ties at the back of your hair.
3. Section off the second third of your hair and secure it with a ponytail holder. Include the small ponytail from the first section in the holder.
4. Section off the last third of your hair and secure it with a ponytail holder. (Include the small ponytail from your last section.) You're finished!
5. Use clear gel or hairspray to set the style, and use a few bobby pins for baby/flyaway hairs.
6. Be creative with this hairstyle. A number of options present themselves:
   • Use more or less sections, bobby pins instead of hair ties, or tie the sections loosely or tightly.
   • If you want to dress this style up, use bobby pins with sparkly studs or a pretty flower clip. Make the sections loose and perhaps leave the last undone. Using a lot of sections will make this look very intricate.
   • If you want to use this style for a sporting event, use a few sections and use ponytail holders that will stay in well.
7. Finished.

Tips

• Use a small, hand-held mirror and face directly away from a mirror. When you hold the mirror up and to the side of your face you will be able to see the back of your head.
• Make sure the hair is secured in a straight line for the best effect.
