A hands-free hairstyle is key for all the running around I do. I don’t want to worry about fussing with strands as I go from one meeting to the next, when so often I find myself at drinks or dinner with the Mr. immediately after my packed day.
Enter this 5 minute fancy pony tail, a team favorite after our friend and hair and makeup artist Jennifer Nieman showed us the ropes. Like her braided up do and 5 minute up do, this simple hair tutorial proves that an elevated, effortless ‘do is totally possible for those jam-packed days. Check out the step-by-step below, and tell me, will you be fixing this 5 minute fancy pony tail this fall? Truly, MKR
Step 1…Start with wavy or curled hair. Curl your hair with either a 1 inch or 1 1/4 inch iron or wand. Use light hairspray and a dry texture spray.
Step 4…Twist to the right to create a roll with the hair.
Step 5…Center the roll and pin using bobbi pins.
Naturally, Jen plays favorites, so her go-to texture sprays include: Redken “Wind Blown” Dry Texture Spray, CHI Texturing Spray and Drybar Triple Sec 3-in-1. To hold the style, she always uses Kenra Volume Spray #25, Redken Fashion Work 12 and Oribe Impermeable Anti-Humidity Hair Spray.
