How to Make a Voluminous Ponytail
Here's how to make a voluminous ponytail with bouncy waves. Follow along as I take you through the process step by step.
Tools and materials:
- Heat protectant
- Curl spray
- Curler
- Wide-tooth comb
- Texture spray
- Hair tie
- Claw clip
1. Prep hair
Start with freshly washed dried hair and apply a heat protectant and a curl spray.
2. Curl hair
Next, curl your hair. I’m using a curler with a 1.25-inch thickness.
A technique I've always used is the twist technique. As you wrap the hair around the barrel, you also twist the hair at the base and then wrap it again and then twist the hair again.
I find that this is the best way for my curls to hold their shape.
3. Shake out hair
Once you remove the hair from the barre, shake it while keeping it in the spiral.
This allows the cool air to flow throughout the curl and brings that temperature down so it sets in place.
4. Comb hair
Then comb it out with a wide tooth comb and give your hair a little shake.
5. Add texture spray
If you want a bit of extra volume, use dry volume texture spray.
6. Tie it in a ponytail
Grasp the hair, tie it off at the crown, and place a tiny claw clip underneath the ponytail for volume
