Use bobby pins to secure your braided hair:

Use bobby pins to keep your braided hair in place so that it doesn’t fall out during the day. On the other hand, you can even spray your hair with hold and shine-enhancing hairspray in order to achieve a nice-looking braided hairstyle.

Select between a sleek and messy ponytail:

You actually need to choose the type of ponytail you want before styling your hair. So, if you prefer a neat and sleek ponytail then start by brushing your hair in order to straighten it before styling.

Grab and gather all hair at the back of your head:

Afterward, you will have to get and gather all your hair at the back of your head and then choose the positioning of your ponytail at the back. So, your ponytail can either be styled at a low, medium, or high position depending on what you prefer.

Comb your hair:

Use a good hairbrush to comb through your hair in order to remove any tangles and prevent any bumps. In fact, you can even run your fingers through your hair while gathering it into a ponytail at the back of your head.

However, if you’re styling a messy ponytail then you don’t have to worry about brushing to remove any bumps.

Secure hair with an elastic band:

Tightly secure your gathered hair with an elastic band so that the created ponytail doesn't fall out. In fact, you can either secure hair with a simple elastic band or add a cute hair clip in order to enhance your looks.

Try out a cool twist:

This involves taking a thin strand of hair from the ponytail, wrapping it around the hair tie/band, and after secure hair with bobby pins. This will actually help to cover up the hair tie/band hence providing you with an elegant look.
