Here are three fantastic big ponytail hairstyles, all based on the basic topsy-turvy, or flip ponytail that you probably already know.

Tools and materials:

  • Ponytail elastics
Double topsy-turvy

1. Double topsy-turvy

Start by putting your hair into a half high-ponytail, leaving some of the front hair out.

Now split your ponytail in two with your fingers.

Make a second ponytail from your remaining here, just below the first ponytail.

Use your fingers to make a hole in the bottom ponytail, just above the ponytail holder, and pass the top ponytail through that hole.

2. Fluffy topsy-turvy

Put your hair into a high ponytail, leaving just a bit of your front hair loose. 


Secure it with a ponytail holder that has been looped around your ponytail twice.

Let your released hair hang over your ponytail for a big, full look!

Twisted topsy-turvy

3. Twisted topsy-turvy

Make two ponytails, one above the other, as you did in step 1.

Make a hole above the ponytail holder on your top ponytail, and pull the top ponytail through that hole to make a topsy-turvy tail.

Now, put your fingers through that hole and use them to twist the whole ponytail around.

Those were all easy adaptations of the topsy-turvy/flip ponytail, but each one has a very distinct look.

    I Watch your videos all the time to get ideas. I get stumped when I’m supposed to put my fingers through a hole then twist the other piece, as in your 3rd example. Mine never looks right. Any advice or more specific steps on doing it? Many thanks!
