Bouncy Ponytail Hack

By Makenna Ashley

Achieving a bouncy ponytail with extensions can be tricky, so today I'm showing you my favorite hack for a fool proof voluminous ponytail! You'll need a couple bobby pins, two hair ties, and a comb or brush. This trick will leave you with a gorgeous bouncy ponytail every time! I'm wearing my custom, 24" extensions for added length in this ponytail. Although, any length of extensions will do for this hairstyle.

  • Step 1: Start with curled hair. Back comb the crown portion of your hair for added volume.
  • Step 2: Pull the top half of you hair into a ponytail, secure with a hair tie. Pull out any pieces desired to frame your face.
  • Step 3: Pull the remainder of hair up into the ponytail, securing with another elastic on top of the first one. 
  • Step 4: For a finishing touch, take a piece from the underneath of the pony, wrap it around the elastic and secure with bobby pins. 

Tip: You can do this style with straight hair; however, I like to do it with curls for the extra volume and texture it gives.
