Pony Up

Who doesn’t love a ponytail? Whether you're working out at the gym or adding a little va-va-voom to a sexy evening look the simple, low maintenance look of the ponytail is the perfect go-to for any face shape!

1. If you're doing this on clean hair: spray Bb. Prep all over damp hair, apply a golf ball sized amount Bb. Thickening Full Form Mousse on your roots and blow dry for lift and volume. 
On dirty hair: spray Bb. Hair Powder all over for volume and to soak up oils. 
2. Divide the head in half (front and back).
3. Create a deep side part and secure with a pin in front of the ear.
