How to Wear Ponytails With Hair Extensions

Ponytail hairstyles are timeless, and they look perfect on all occasions. These trendy hairstyles look super cute when worn the right way. But what if your hair lacks the length or volume to create a beautiful ponytail? Well, in that case, hair extensions have your back.

Hair extensions add length, bounce, and thickness to your hair, allowing you to pull your hair into your favorite hairstyles. But since extensions come in many different forms, how do you know which one works best with ponytails? Can you wear a high ponytail with tape-in extensions? What about clip-in extensions, you ask!

Creating a ponytail with tape-ins or clip-ins is doable but tricky. You can try it at home or the salon, but we recommend you use Ponytail hair extensions.

What are Ponytail Extensions?

Ponytail hair extensions are made to instantly add length, fullness, and thickness to your regular ponytail. Using these extensions, you can quickly pull your hair into high, low, and braided ponytail hairstyles. 

The best human hair ponytail extensions by Zala are thick, soft, and silky. They will blend seamlessly with your natural hair, making your hair look long and luscious in seconds. The best part is that the wefts are super easy to install. Simply clip the weft to your hair, wrap it around your ponytail, and you’re ready to rock a classy hairstyle. 

Steps to Create a Ponytail With Extensions

Ponytail hair extensions provide many possibilities to style your hair. Here are the general steps to pull your hair into a ponytail with these extensions.

Step 1: Brush your hair thoroughly and then pull it into a ponytail. Make sure the ponytail stands higher than how you wear it regularly. Use a hair tie to secure the ponytail in place.

Step 2: Use a loop brush or wide-toothed comb to smooth your ponytail hair extension and remove any knots or tangles.

Step 3: Take the ponytail extension, snap open the clips, slide it under the hair tie you used to secure the ponytail, and close the clips. 

Step 4: Swaddle the velcro base around the ponytail. Make sure it covers the ponytail entirely and firmly.

Step 5: Take some hair strands and wrap them around the ponytail’s base. This will help hide the hair tie. Use hairpins to secure the hair strands.

Step 6: Move your head in different directions to ensure your ponytail looks and feels good. 

Your ponytail with hair extensions is now ready! You’re free to wear it however you please. Below are a few options to consider.
