You want the perfect ponytail? Then we have the ultimate tip for you.
Remember when you were a teenager, tying two ponytails together to make your hair look long and full of volume? In 90 percent of the cases it didn’t even look like it. Despite this, the wildest tricks and tips for the perfect ponytail keep circulating on the internet. We tried the newest one.
This trick is primarily about adding volume. Anyone who doesn’t have very thick hair knows the problem: we tie a braid and suddenly it looks like we only have three hairs on our head. The higher the braid, the worse it gets. We can now deal with that very easily.
Ponytail XXL – how it works
All you need is a conventional hair tie that is as thin as possible. Unfortunately, invisibobbles or scrunchies don’t work that well here – but it’s still worth a try.
Now wrap the hair tie around your hair as if you were tying a normal braid. With the last twist, however, you do not pull the hair tie around all your hair, but divide the braid once in the middle and finally tie the hair band around this part only. Now you pull the braid tight – and you already have a ponytail with maximum volume. Without 84202084 steps and tools. In the video, we show how it works:
Ponytail tips for pros
It doesn’t matter whether you tie a normal braid or use this trick: always comb your hair beforehand! This allows the hair to be brought together much better and is more supple.

So that the ponytail looks perfect, you can tame the fine baby hair on the top of the head with a backcomb and some hair gel or styling pomade. It is best to put the product in your hair before you tie the braid. Pure perfection!
