FABULOUS with a playful ponytail
Best for
Like a portable air conditioner, the swinging motion of a long ponytail as it moves back and forth instantly cools down the back of the neck. Styling in volume at the crown and leaving loose tendrils in the front adds optical width to a more narrow-looking face, says Stafford.
What you’ll need: Teasing comb, hair spray, hair tie, bobby pins. Step 1: Back-comb hair through the crown and brush it back, then set with hair spray.
Step 2: Leaving out a 1" section of on each side of the face in front, smooth hair into a pony that rests above the nape of the neck; secure with an elastic. Gently tug on the hair above the base of the pony to emphasize the beehive-like bump. Step 3: Wrap a 1" section of hair from the pony around the elastic to hide it; pin into place.
