A Voluminous Ponytail | Tutorial

It's nice to add some extra volume to a normal ponytail just to liven it up and give it some texture. Methods used can range from teasing to simply tipping your head upside down, but as you know, some do damage hair more than others. So i thought i would be a good person and do the a tutorial for the 2 examples I've just given, so whether you would rather tease or tip, you can do it your way! Enjoyyyyy.

Teasing
You Will Need:
  • A hair brush
  • A teasing comb
  • Hairspray
  • A hair tie
  • Hair grips
  • Texturising spray (optional)
  • A scrunchy or hair bow clip (optional)

1.      Thoroughly brush though your hair so you don't get any nasty tangles and knots. 
2.      Use your finger or the end of a tail comb to separate a part of hair at the top of your head, and lightly spray hairspray at the back of the part.
3.      Use your comb to lightly or roughly tease your hair, depending on how volumized you want your hair to be.
4.      If needed, tease around the sides of your head if you want a more natural style. Brush down all the hair so the teased parts are even and all level with each other.
5.      If needed, you can grip the teased parts down to your head before doing the ponytail so they stay put.
6.      Its now time to gather up all the hair and tie it up! 
7.      Once you have your ponytail, you can pull bits out from the side to frame your face, and pull bits out until you're happy with it. 
8.       Take the pony tail and spray some texturising spray, then scrunch. This will make your hair look more voluminous.
9.      If wanted, add a scrunchy to cover the hair tie or hair grips, or a clip in bow at the base of the hair tie.
ALL DONE:)


Tipping

You Will Need:

  • Hair tie
  • Hair spray (optional)
  • Hair Grips (optional)
  • Texturising Spray(optional)
  • Accessories (optional)
1.      Brush you hair all out, no tangles or knots.
2.      Tip your head upside down and gather up all your hair into a ponytail. This should naturally give it some volume. 
3.      Bring your head back up and make some adjustments if needed e.g. pulling bits out, gripping bits together.
4.      When you're happy with your pony tail, add hairspray to avoid any fly away's, and if wanted, some accessories like the last style.
