Many of us struggle with dry, hard to manage hair that can make the morning beauty routine a challenge (thank goodness its finally over). While we love our red-carpet hair looks, sometimes there\u2019s just not enough time and you need a simple solution to your hair woes. That\u2019s where a perfectly classic ponytail comes in. Youthful and relatively simple to achieve, a classic ponytail can be a great go-to style.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>1). Wash, condition and dry hair. Separate the hair into two sections by gathering the front section together and securing it with a clip (half up half-down style) on top of your head.<\/p>\n<p>2). Tie the lower half of your hair into a ponytail. Leave the front section of hair secured with the clip. Use a hair elastic to secure the bottom half of your hair into mid-height ponytail.<\/p>\n<p>3). Remove the clip securing the top half of hair, comb the hair smooth using a round brush and tie into a ponytail (directly above your lower ponytail).<\/p>\n<p>4). Gather both ponytails together and tie into one ponytail. Make sure ponytails are close together.<\/p>\n<p>6). Wrap a section of hair around the base of your ponytail. Take a half inch to inch of hair from the ponytail and wrap it around the base of the ponytail to hide the elastic. Colorful hair ties, ribbon or even a scarf (see below) can also work well.<\/p>\n<p>7). Use bobby pins to hold stubborn strands in place. Smooth away flyaways and secure your ponytail with finishing spray.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Check out some of our favourite ponytail styles below from Instagram.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/BguScXHjxDI\/?tagged=ponytail<\/p>\n<p>https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/BZYmkFLHJh2\/?utm_source=ig_embed&#038;utm_campaign=embed_ufi_test<\/p>\n<p>https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/Bgot4B3FMhP\/?taken-by=leletny<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; Winter is notorious for its hair challenges.
