Instant ponytail upgrade (from Refinery29)

Use a wide-tooth comb to create a diagonal part from your right temple,
dragging it diagonally across the crown.

Set with hair spray

Smooth hair with a paddle brush, pushing locks behind the ears.
Top tip: Running the back of the brush across your hair will help remove static

Simply pull the hair into a ponytail.
Then, take a little piece of hair from underneath the ponytail
 and wrap it around the hair elastic, securing it with a hair grip.
The piece of hair should be just thick enough to completely cover the elastic.

And that's it! A sleek and gorgeous ponytail that's right on trend.
