In one famous video, a young father gives his daughter a ponytail using the suction draft of a vacuum cleaner. The video, of course, is funny and has won many positive reviews, but nevertheless, to create the perfect tail, this method is strictly prohibited.

But do not despair, the main thing is to know the step-by-step instructions and strive to make the final result beautiful.
The first thing that needs to be done is to separate the hair of the parietal part with a hairpin. Collect the remaining hair in a ponytail. Dissolve the hair of the parietal zone, and make a bouffant on them. It is best to use a fine-toothed comb for this procedure. After that, lay the voluminous curls back and fasten to the finished ponytail. Cover the resulting high hairstyle with fixing varnish.

- Do not do this on very long hair: the finished hairstyle will look ridiculous.
- The ponytail on medium hair is perfect for little girls and girls. It is better for women of the older generation to refuse to create such a hairstyle.

Having figured out the important styling criteria, you can familiarize yourself with the most popular variations of quick and easy hairstyles.
It is worth noting that eminent stylists do not advise collecting hair with special trepidation - today, a kind of mess is in trend, which looks much more attractive.
That is why ponytail styling has many ways of execution, which can be suitable for both everyday wear and special occasions.
The first styling option is the most common, it is called the tail to one side. To create it does not require huge efforts and spending a lot of time.
- The hair is pretreated with mousse, after which it is assembled into an asymmetrical bun using a special comb with frequent teeth. To continue creating styling, you should pay attention to the bangs. If it is oblique, then the tail should tilt to the side where it is longer.
- If there are no bangs at all, a large strand of hair is separated from the top of the head, which will have to be arranged separately from the tail.In principle, it can be curled or simply stabbed, but so that this curl slightly falls on the face. Then sprinkle with fixing varnish.
- The tail collected from the side is fixed with hairpins or ribbons. Although you can separate a small curl and wrap it around the thickness of the ponytail, hiding the elastic. Hide the remaining tip on the inside of the hairstyle and secure it with an invisible one.
The second most popular style is the ponytail with harnesses. Its creation does not require any special skills and a huge amount of time - only tools, namely a comb and fixing elements in the form of hairpins or rubber bands.
- Hair must be collected in one ponytail at the back of the head and secured with an elastic band. The created bun is divided into two equal strands, each of which is carefully combed and twisted. Curls should be twisted either clockwise or counterclockwise. Thus, harnesses are obtained. Then they must be intertwined and secured with a fixing element.

In third place in the list of popular ponytail hairstyles is styling with a braid. To create it, you only need a comb and a few rubber bands.
- The neat, brushed hair is gathered at the crown and secured with a fixing element.
- The resulting tail is braided into a braid and tightened with an elastic band at the end. It is worth noting that the method of braiding is largely responsible for the volume of the hairstyle. From this it follows that loosely woven strands will look quite voluminous.
- The fixing elastic at the bottom of the braid can be hidden by a separate set aside.
Fast and beautiful bundles
Medium hair is the ideal length for creating a wide variety of head embellishments. It is at this length that twisted strands, braided braids, flagella, and wavy styling look majestic. If you carefully consider all the options presented, it will become clear that the missing link is the bundle.

However, one and the same installation method can be presented in completely different forms, especially if done, for example, from the side or on top of the head.

Another interesting option is a bunch on the side, decorated in the form of a rose, which is complemented by decorative hairpins. High styling of the beam favorably emphasizes the neckline of a beautiful lady, while lengthening her face. This factor must be taken into account so as not to spoil the appearance of the owner of the styling.
As a business image, a smooth bun on the top of the head with missing jewelry will be ideal. But for solemn hairstyles, it is not necessary to follow strict lines. The hair can be lifted up, secured with hairpins or hairpins and also let go of several strands framing the face.
It is worth noting that the high bun located at the top of the head is ideal for girls with a long neck. It is this arrangement of the bun that favorably shapes the round or square oval of the face.
Quite easy and simple to create a styling knot, located at the bottom of the headas the hair itself grows downward. Just below the occipital region, the hair is gathered into the desired shape. If necessary, the bunch can be leveled and even fluffed. To hide loose ends, decorative weaving is often used. For example, braids from the sides, starting from the temporal region and passing through the entire head, frame the bundle itself.
According to experienced stylists, the understated position of the muzzle is suitable for women with model height, as well as for those with short necks.
The very design of the hairstyle is classified by density. It's easy to see the difference between a tight weave and a weak roll. A strong and tight mount looks quite strict and suits a serious business woman, but a slight disheveledness, on the contrary, is combined with a relaxed and relaxed personality.
So, to create a stylish and elegant bun hairstyle you don't need to have any professional hairdressing skills. And for the process itself, you only need a pair of pins, in some cases a special roller and a pair of clips in the form of rubber bands.
