How to Style a Festive Evening Ponytail

Get out of your everyday ponytail rut and try something new. Here our hair expert shows you how to do a sleek, chic ponytail that is perfect for a night out.

Texture

Use hairspray to ass some texture to your hair so it is easier to work with.

Example: Fekkai Sheer Hold Hair Spray

Pin curls

Put some pin curls in to create even more texture in your hair.

Unpin curls

Unpin the curls and brush.

Ponytail

Pull the lower sections of your hair into a ponytail with a flat brush and secure with a bungee or tie.

Example: Fekkai Classic Brush

Smooth

Smooth hair back with your fingers and a little hairspray to control flyaways and give it some extra shine and sleekness.

Tease

Gently tease the top sections of your hair for a small lift.

Secure

Secure the teased top section over the ponytail with pins that match your hair color. 

Volume

Use a tail comb (or chopsticks) to gently pull up the hair on your crown for added volume.
