Mastering a Runway Worthy Messy Pony with EcoTools

by Julia DiNardo

Banana Republic spring 2016

Christian Dior, Balmain, Banana Republic, Oscar de la Renta, Lauren Conrad, Y-3, Kate Spade New York… what do all of these brands have in common? The hair style seen at all of their spring shows were ponytails! From sleek to tousled up, high to low, and adorned with velvety ribbons or a simple elastic bungee, there’s no denying that the ponytail is the look for spring–or now! The best part is that it’s so unbelievably simple to achieve.

Focusing on my favorite version, an unfussy, fast, messy pony, I created the look with the help of some tools, starting out and finishing with the EcoTools Ultimate Air Dryer Hair Brush. This brush not only helps to dry hair 40% faster, but also is extremely gentle, perfect for the backcombing involved in this style.

In order to achieve a ponytail similar to the one featured at top, apply volumizing mousse to the hair roots and lengths, dry the hair with the EcoTools Ultimate Air Dryer Hair Brush, and add in some texture or “beach waves” spray a few minutes into the drying process. With a big barrel curling iron, loosely curl the ends in varying directions, gather, and secure with an elastic at the mid-crown. Add some dry shampoo for even more matte texture to the lengths and crown, and mess up a bit by lightly scrunching the hair. Use a distinctive elastic, like mine picture with some hardware on them for extra visual interest, or wrap the hair around the elastic and secure with a bobby pin to conceal it.
