The cute gal above is my babysitter, and I am smitten with her hair. She wears it in a fun, bohemian way, and I had to share this fun update on a ponytail. I’m sure you’ll see more of her on the blog – she’s a dead ringer for Zooey Deschanel!
I’m dedicating this post to my sister who still wears a scrunchie. :) There’s no doubt a ponytail is a classic look that neatly hides day 3 hair. But it’s time to toss the scrunchie and try one of these tricks to give your pony an upgrade. Click the photo to take you to the tutorial.


























I just cut my hair short again so I can’t do ponytails anymore–boo! :(
great round up! i love a cute ponytail! definitely have to try some of these out!
I really like #4 the knot looks so pretty (and possibly easy to do??). I can’t wait to give it a try. :)
Fabulous roundup Steph – currently growing my hair from very short (it’s reaching my shoulders now – yay!) so can’t wait to try some of these out.
Good for you! I can never get that far when I try to grow mine out – it gets to chin length and I end up cutting it off again!
Ah yes, I know what that’s like! My friend who is a stylist told me to just stop cutting it and so I have and its grown heaps (it’s a bit dodgy on the ends but I can handle that for the length).
And, extra bonus – saved loads of money at the hairdresser ;)
That is a major bonus! I always laugh that I have so little hair and yet it costs a fortune since I have to get it cut so often.
Love this! I needed a pony upgrade!

Thanks Ashley! And it’s amazing how easy some of these are. Have fun experimenting!
This is great, I need this so bad. And a hair dresser to move in with us. My poor poor neglected hair…..
And a make-up artist, a personal chef, and maybe a trainer too! Wouldn’t that be awesome?
Sign me up! :D
I just love a good spin on a good ol pony! Great collection. I need to tray that Blair one!
Let me know if you try it Tan – I’m always amazed at what people do with their hair, that one looks so super cute!
I really like the last one.
love love love this!!!
