Move over, man bun. Ponytails for men are the latest hairstyle trend to take the world by storm. While the ponytail has long been associated with women's hairstyles, men are now embracing this classic look, and it's not hard to see why. With a variety of lengths and styles to choose from, the ponytail is a versatile and stylish choice for men of all ages.
First, let's talk about length. The ponytail can be worn at different lengths, from short and simple to long and flowing. If you have short hair, don't worry – you can still rock a ponytail. Simply gather your hair at the back of your head and tie it with a small elastic band. Simple rule for this one, avoid the low ponytail, that way you avoid the rat's tail look.
If you have long hair, you truly can get wild with the pony. You can create a big, bold ponytail, or a messy ponytail that exudes casual cool. The key is to keep your hair healthy and well-maintained, so invest in some quality hair products and make sure to get regular trims.
Now, let's talk about the different types of ponytails. There's the classic mid-length ponytail, which is always a safe bet. This involves gathering your hair at the back of your head and tying it with a hair tie. The low ponytail is another popular option, especially for men with medium-length hair. This involves gathering your hair at the nape of your neck and tying it with a hair tie. For athletes, or if you just want that athletic look, try a high ponytail, slightly higher than you suspect. This involves gathering your hair at the crown of your head and tying it with a hair tie.
Note, that when using a hair tie I find unless it's a super small one you need to wrap it twice around your hair, this will ultimately depend on the thickness of your hair.
In conclusion, the ponytail is a versatile and stylish choice for men of all ages. Whether you have short hair, medium-length hair, or long hair, there's a ponytail style that's right for you. Experiment with different lengths and types of ponytails to find the one that suits your personal style, and remember to keep your hair healthy and well-maintained. Now go forth, my follicle-forward friends, and rock that ponytail!
