A high ponytail is ideal not only for a gym but also for a party or even a wedding. In fact, all you need to do is just grab your hair and tie it with a hairband. Then, take a small part of your ponytail and wrap it around the base. Also, you can add up some curls to look fancier or you can leave it as it is; it will still remain fabulous.

FAQ: Messy Ponytail

Is it unprofessional to wear a ponytail?

A ponytail is entirely professional, yet a low ponytail reads as more professional than a high ponytail. Clips, gibson tucks, buns and other hairstyles are also great options for ponytails.

Why does my hair look bad in a ponytail?

When you pull your hair back straight, it retains people’s attention at eye level. When you put your hair up in a high ponytail, however, it is more on a diagonal in line with your cheekbones, which brings people’ gaze upward and gives the impression of a different facial shape.

Why is it harmful to tie hair tightly?

Wearing your hair in a tight bun all day long can put undue stress on your roots. As a result, your hair may break and get damaged. If you don’t want the hair in your face and still want to knot it, a hair band will be a good option.
