Side buns and ponies are an excellent way to properly bring asymmetry into your fashionable life. They glam up lazy hair work days, casual Sundays and add a fresh style to a night out. The side bun or pony keeps your hair out-of-the-way and puts you right into a couture fashion line. Not to mention, they look great on any face shape and can be done right with any texture of hair.
How to?
The hair can be parted down the middle, measured over the center of an eye for a side part or teased back for a poof. The hair then is gathered into a ponytail and worked to the desired side.
Please know, when sporting a side-part to the right, the side pony or bun goes to the left. When stylizing a side-part to the left, the side pony or bun goes to the right. We are working with asymmetry, ladies!
The height of your side bun or pony is to your liking and hair length. For a more classic and casual look, keep it low; right under or on the nape of the neck. The low look is a personal favorite.
Beware! When moving the pony or side-bun to high, you'll likely rekindle the 80s. Though we do love the 80s, leave the high side bun or pony in the closet with your shoulder pads.
Once you have your side pony in place, tie in your pony then wrap into a perfected or messy bun. By gathering the hair loosely, you will keep for a casual and breezy look. A tighter gather will beam sophistication. Let your mood decide! Either way your destined to look glamorous and DeLifeFull.
