Model Ponytail Hair Tutorial // How To Do A Cute Ponytail!

Hello, everybody welcome back to another day of vlogmas today's been kind of hectic. I was filming this makeup, look that i have on for you guys for today's video, like a date night get ready with me or like a winter glow up, because i was looking kind of rough in the beginning, and i was gon na do like a full Date, night get ready with me like outfit hair, makeup everything, but for some reason my camera stopped working. But if i try to fix it, it might delete everything that i have recorded and i have like stuff recorded for like future days of vlogmas planned out and i'm gon na be doing like a 2021 rewind type of thing, where it's like a compilation of all Of like my favorite things that happened in 2021, that's going to go up in january, but anyways. I don't want to lose all of my footage or delete any of it. So i deleted what i could and i think that it's gon na be okay to film. A video right now i posted on my instagram story that i didn't think i could get a video up today, but i feel really bad and i feel like a failure. If i don't and i'm gon na like cry about it. So so i'm gon na try and film right now. So i guess this video is gon na, be like a ponytail hair tutorial because i'm going to be putting my hair up in a ponytail, so yeah this full get ready with me is turning into just a hair tutorial. I guess, and then i'll show you guys. Maybe what i'm wearing tonight, so my apologies. If this video is shorter than the rest of vlogmas, i'm gon na try and just get this up for you guys. I really am determined to have something up for you guys today, because i feel horrible, and so i'm gon na get my stuff and show you what you need for like the perfect ponytail and we're just gon na talk through that and help me get ready like For the rest of the day, okay, so i changed my shirt into this long sleeve. I think i'm going to be wearing this tonight on my date, just because it's been so cold. I want like some layers, so i'm going to wear this with like a nice big jacket, i think anyways. I wanted to change my shirt since that was like kind of a tighter neck, and this one is too so i didn't mess up the ponytail once it's on. That'S the thing with ponytails. You want to make sure that you're like ready to put it on, sounds dramatic, but when you want it like nice and slick, i know some people are okay with like messy ponytails, but for me it just doesn't work. I think i have too many baby hairs, because when i do messy ponytails, i always feel like this doesn't look good. I like mine, to be like sleek and nice, so yeah, i'm thinking like a back here, one like higher than halfway higher than a low one, but not like up here for this one i kind of want to go for like the model. Look, how, like you, keep some of your part in it. So let me move you guys back a little bit just so that we have like enough space to like see everything. So if you want to do these ponytails you're going to need ponytail holders, i always like to do two, because, when you're trying to make it really slicked back, you want like at least two if it's gon na hold your hair um. When i put one - and i try to do it, i'll literally tie it off and then it falls down like because my hair is just too heavy for it. Do you guys call them ponytail holders, or do you call them rubber bands? I don't want to sound crazy, but i call them ponytail holders and i know people have made fun of me for that before. Let me know in the comments what you guys call them. Do you guys call these like hair ties? That'S probably the word like hair ties, hair elastics, i call them ponytail holders. That'S just like what i grew up like hearing so anyways. I'M gon na put these on my wrist next up, i'm gon na use gel this one is like a five hair gel. So it's like the strongest that you can get. This is just the tresemme one and then also i have this hairspray. This is the freeze hold hairspray. This one is a level five two and i use this recently for a ponytail, the one that i wore in my like winter makeup, routine, video that i posted a few videos ago and oh my gosh. It didn't make my hair like crunchy it just kind of like held it in place, which was nice and i was able to like really mold like the hair. I'M talking a mile a minute i feel like. I need to hurry up, but i i don't know here's the thing. I have two hours to record this and edit and upload and then i'm leaving on my date, so i do feel like i'm kind of in a hurry. Next you're gon na want a brush like this excuse. My hair is all over it, and then i also have my regular brush that i use this is so much hair in it too. Let me take this out because i feel embarrassed okay, so i have my other brush too. So that's what i'm going to use to do this ponytail. These ponytails can sometimes frustrate you if things are not working out, so you want to make sure you have like both brushes this one to kind of get it all tight, this one to kind of smooth out any bugs and then hairspray gel whatever you want to Use or you can use both - i think i'm going to use both today. So you want to start with like a middle part, and i think my part is a middle part. But sometimes i look at like pictures of myself or like me with the inverted filter and i'm like whoa that is not centered at all, but it's okay. This is middle to me and you want to like brush out all of your hair first. So i like to like get under here and get all the knots out and then like brush down and then what i also like to do is brush like right here by the ears because you're going to want to slick this. And if there's any knots, it tends to hurt like really bad so now that my hair is all brushed i'm going to go in with some gel. I believe i think i'll do that first today and i'm just taking like this much and i'm just gon na brush it into like the sides of my hair once you get it like kind of all in there start to like grab your ponytail. So i like to just like grab straight back and hold it at like the height that you think you want it and then grab the bottom and try and make it like as smooth as you can, but obviously we're going to brush this out. So no pressure. If it's not like super smooth, so one thing is: if i tied it right now see how this part's going like up, and then this part's going like a weird way too. That'S not very flattering, and that's not like the model type of ponytail. That'S been going on, so what i like to do is find like the height, that i want it, because it's easier to like smooth it out at that height. I think that'll be good for me, so i'm going to start smoothing it out, but i'm going to brush down and like kind of to the side for these front parts and then the rest. You can brush back so again watch how this side is like going up, but i'm brushing like sideways and straight back. Sometimes it takes me a few times to like brush it out and then put it in the ponytail holders and then try again sometimes bumps appear once you tie it off and it can get kind of annoying. But you just have to like figure out what works for you and then i'm going to brush the underneath. So i like doing this, look for like ponytails more than buns. I was doing buns a lot in the summer. This is a good hairstyle for, like your hair, once it starts to get a little oily too i'll mention that oh and then i'm just brushing back like on half of my part now, but the thing is, is if you do this for a bun, you need To make sure the bottom is smooth, but if you're doing this for a ponytail, the bottom doesn't matter as much, because this will cover it. I mean for the most part i try to make it smooth, but i'm not like as worried about it since i'm not doing a bun, so it's getting a little low, so i'm going to pull up a little bit. This is literally a workout every time i do this so when you start thinking that it's like looking pretty good, you can take the cap off your hairspray, which i should have done before. Let'S hold on arm rest see, this is literally a workout. This is why i don't do these too much because it hurts my arm. I think this is like the height that i'm gon na end up going with, so i'm gon na start spraying my hairspray and i don't spray it everywhere at once. I like to work with on sections so i'll spray and then do the brush thing again, but this time we're smoothing it look at how smooth that looks now, so i'm gon na hold it. Oh my god, my arm hurts so bad. As you can see. My hair lays different, like i have like more baby hairs here and it's more full on this side. Maybe this one should go up here. I'M gon na go ahead and spray the top and go in with this brush. I'M so proud of myself for how i'm doing today. I think this might be like a one and done type of situation, so i'm gon na go ahead and tie it off now, there's like one little bump on the bottom, but don't tell anybody okay. So what i do is, i don't do one at a time i grab both at once, okay and then grab both rubber bands. I try to tie mine like two to three times and then just be careful when you like tie it off and then you tighten it because sometimes that can create like horrible bumps and you're like oh, my god, all my work is ruined wow. I am so proud of how this came out on my first try. Did you see the back? I just imagined me like turning around to show you guys the back of my ponytail and it's all bumpy or something i feel bald. Let me put on my jacket and show you guys what it looks like okay. So this is the jacket that i think i'm gon na wear tonight. Wait you guys! I just put this on, and you know what it's reminding me of like with the ponytail and this style jacket that new ariana masked christmas look that she did. I kind of feel like it's giving that did this just become a watch me recreate video. I don't know, but i'm kind of excited about that, should i do another watch me recreate soon. If you guys have any suggestions on like any looks, you want me to recreate from like celebrities, that'd be so fun to do for vlogmas, because it's been a minute since i've done like a celebrity recreation but yeah. I think i'm gon na wear this jacket. Maybe tonight or a different one, that's like thick like this, just because it's so cold and i feel like it looks good with my ponytail but anyways. This is the ponytail. I hope this video was long enough. I hope this video was kind of entertaining. I think i'm just gon na wear this with either some sneakers or my docs and call it a day, but i hope you guys enjoyed this video. I hope it was long enough. This was so last minute, i'm so sorry. I need to figure my camera out and make sure i can record like tomorrow, i'm gon na try and vlog tonight too, on my date and again sorry for the camera mishap. I think i might need to go to best buy and like figure out. What'S going on to those of you who have been commenting and liking every single one? Thank you so much.
