HOW TO GET A LONGER PONYTAIL

photos/post: Kristin Ess

Sometimes if you have super curly hair it can be frustrating to wear it in a ponytail because it just gets so short! Wanted to share my favorite quick trick for lengthening a ponytail. This can be done on any hair type really, but you’ll see the best results with curly hair. Basically all do you is add a second pony underneath the first one. Split your hair in two sections as you see Meskie doing below, secure with a ponytail holder and then let the top one fall over the bottom one. Once you have the ponytails in place, twist a couple of the curls together to bond the top and bottom ponytail and that’s it! It’s a quick trick and super-handy for anyone trying to get more length instead of “poof”. Throw in a cute accessory and you’re good to go.
