PONYTAIL CLIP FOR WEDDINGS
Taking the less-is-more route, there are a lot of bridal ponytail hairstyles you can use to complete your wedding look. Although ponytails are typically reserved for a slow, “too lazy to dress up” kind of day, they can look amazing when done right, even for something as special as a wedding.
Feel like you don’t have enough length and volume to pull it off? With Zala’s Clip, Wrap & Go Ponytail Hair Extension, you can have a fuller, bouncier, and longer ponytail instantly. It doesn’t matter even if you’ve got short or layered hair – our extensions will make sure that no hair strand will stick out no matter what hairstyle you’ve got.
1. SIDE-SWEPT PONYTAIL
There’s something about a side pony wedding hair that looks naturally romantic, don’t you think? Not to mention, it’s very easy to pull off.
Just pull back all your hair and tie it in a side ponytail. You can then style your hair in soft, large curls or tie them in big, loose braids. This allows you to blend your hair extensions to your own natural hair with curls or braids. We think this is the best ponytail hairstyle for wedding day looks because it’s chic and customizable, depending on your preference as well as your wedding theme.
2. HIGH PONYTAIL
This is yet another elegant wedding hairstyle ponytail for special occasions. The plain high pony wedding hair should not be underestimated, even for occasions other than weddings. It’s classic for a reason, able to suit a wide variety of bridal styles and looks.
There are a lot of options you can choose from to make this classic pony style impressive not just your future partner, but for your wedding guests as well. A huge ribbon, top pearl pins, or some end curls – there’s just a wide variety of options to make this minimalist look even more chic.
Additionally, the simplicity of this hairstyle will allow you to emphasize the details at the back of your wedding gown and show off that beautiful dress. This sleek updo also exudes modern femininity and elegance if you’re leaning towards a more voguish wedding.
Pro-tip: if you tease the bottom strands for some volume while keeping the crown part aesthetically sleek, you could be in for some stunning wedding profile shots.
3. VOLUMINOUS PONYTAIL
Your slicked-back hair in contrast with the overly teased voluminous ponytail gives your hair a nice texture and vibe that’s very fitting with an event as joyous as a wedding. It’s gracefully feminine and, at the same time, it’s playfully modern. The volume, texture, and dimension make this ideal for either modern-themed or boho-themed weddings – maybe even both.
And since you only need to tie your hair once, you can rest assured even your shorter hairs will not stray in front of your face during your first dance.
4. LOW PONYTAIL
If you’re looking for a more classic look for your wedding, consider a low ponytail. While some may deem this look as ‘boring’, the truth is that low ponytails can give off an ethereal beauty when spruced up with braids, twists, or accessories.
5. BRAIDED PONYTAIL
With braids, your ponytail can go a lot of ways: sophisticated and sleek, charming and fun, or even cool and free. There are so many ways to style a fancy ponytail for wedding day looks!
For a charming and fun braided ponytail, you can try out a laced braid. Instead of one section of hair, substitute it with lace or a long strip of cloth and braid your hair. This is a nice substitute for your braids if you can’t find small flowers to insert in your hair so that your braids can achieve that more romantic boho look and match your garden or beach wedding.
An example of a cool and free braided ponytail is the fishtail ponytail. It’s a perfect look for more carefree wedding vibes like outdoor weddings or wedding parties. Get a more celebratory feel and look with a fishtail pony!
If you want a more versatile hairstyle that can suit both the ceremony and reception, you can go for the classic twisted braids. Timeless and ever-so-gorgeous, you can’t go wrong with this one.
A PONY TO IMPRESS
While ponytails are known as the quick and lazy type of hairstyle, there are undeniably a lot of ponytail hairstyles that can take your wedding look higher by a few notches.
Just check your dress, especially the neckline, and your wedding theme and venue, and you can surely find a pony hairstyle that will be perfect for you on your big day!
