Wanted: the sleek half-ponytail
Much like its cousin the low-slung ponytail, the half-ponytail is one of the simplest and quickest looks to re-create. Let’s take a closer look at this simple and elegant style, recently spotted on the Zero Maria Cornejo Spring-Summer 2015 runway at New York Fashion Week.
The trend. Models were styled with long, shiny lengths in auburn tones and given structure with a side parting, finally being secured into a half-ponytail. This classic, no-fuss up-do instantly creates a sophisticated and sleek finish. The upper section was straightened and swept backwards whilst lengths hung down loose.
Get the runway look. Make like the runway models and opt for nude make-up and loose-fitting pieces which will ensure you’re more on-trend than ever. This look is perfect for a meeting or interview. If you wear this style day-to-day, add some personality with accessories to inject some color.
Step-by-step tutorial. Start by washing hair with Ultimate Purity shampoo from the Keratin Therapy range. Your aim should be to strengthen and deeply nourish before styling. Section into two parts; one on top and one underneath. Concentrating on the upper section, sweep towards the crown and secure into a ponytail with a hair tie. Straighten the rest of your locks then spray with hairspray to complete the look.
