hey guys it's Jackie and welcome back to
my channel for today's video we're doing
something a bit different a very quick
and easy tutorial and based on it's very
quick and easy perky pony I posted this
photo over on Instagram and I got a lot
of comments asking to do a tutorial
specifically on how I do my pony tail so
it's quick it's more or less me flipping
my head upside down gathering in it my
cat it up gathering it it with an
elastic and then styling it so I'll
share some tips and tricks as well as
some products that help me achieve this
style you might notice I am in a bit of
a different location I really wanted to
show you my couch I finally got a couch
into my new apartment I don't know how
I'm gonna film videos and intros in this
apartment and I'm still experimenting
but it's kind of cute anyway let's get
started with this look so here's a look
at the make up if you're looking for
something similar
I'd suggest the Sharon Tate from once
upon a time in Hollywood tutorial I did
so that's linked in the info button and
here's my natural hair so I do have
quite a bit of length but it's pretty
thin when I toss it up into a pony so
I'll show you all my hacks and I really
use these tips like on the daily to make
it look a little cuter so after I've
brushed it out I like to add one or two
three clip weft of extensions these ones
are from Bellamy and they are the pair I
used in the Blue Lagoon tutorial so they
are more of a cool brown which I like to
mix in to my hair because it's similar
to my roots and then the ends of my hair
are a bit brassy right now so I find it
just neutralizes that and how I clip
them in is I divide a small section away
and then clip them upward so they lay
flat going up into a pony and the lower
on your head the more comfortable and
easier of these will be to hide as as
long as you've up sectioned apart off
that will go over top and once you have
brushed over you really won't feel them
you'll forget they're even there but it
does add quite a bit of volume of course
extensions are completely optional its
style is super cute with thin hair if
your hair is a bit short or two it'll
look adorable when you add some curl to
the ends and it's easier because it will
stay that way
so pros and cons to all hair thicknesses
but I've just put all my hair upside
down
and then I'm tightly gathering into a
high ponytail with my hands at the very
top of my head I love this position
because you can see the pony from
straight on and with my face shape I
prefer that because mine so round and I
like to still have hair framing my face
and how I get my pony to stay perky is
either I'll add a thick scrunchie and
I'll do this quite tight or I use a pony
oh these are marketed to use by
themselves without a hair tie but I
really like to use it after I've already
used a hair tie you just place it around
your hair and squeeze it flat and then
you bend the sides around the base of
the pony and it adds height to the
ponytail and makes the base a lot
thicker I find my pony also really stays
and is comfortable when I use the pony
Oh on top of the elastic and I don't
really like to gather my hair into a
pony just using this product I know a
lot of people love it but this is how
it's worked for me and the next tip for
a cute pony is to take the end of a comb
and insert it and pull upwards to get a
bit more volume and this step is great
with getting those little bumps if you
happen to have any going up into the
pony and I'm sorry my scalp is really
dry you could probably see that but just
ignore it and another step I do for my
pony tail I don't always do this it's a
little bit of a time-consuming step but
if I am going to take photos then I will
add in a little bit of powder to my
hairline just to fill it out on the
right side because it is quite a bit
thinner you can see it my pale scalp a
bit more so when you're picking an
eyeshadow I like to go for deeper than I
think I need so sometimes I'll use a
black or like an off black Brown because
it will look lighter against your scalp
and also just use a tiny bit of shadow
and fade it backwards into your hair I
like to remove most of the shadow from
my brush so it's more subtle you can see
I did a patch just directly onto the
scalp right here and it doesn't work as
well so you want to blend out and
applying too much will look kind of like
a wig and very unnatural so less is more
and hopefully you can tell the
difference when I just quickly added a
bit of powder and you can actually leave
this for a couple days if you don't wash
your hair daily so it's a great step to
add a bigger look and then
add some hairspray for the flyaways then
the quickest way to finish off the pony
would be to curve in the ends with the
straightener if you want to make it more
60s you can do a flick using a curling
iron just to the ends of the hair I'm
picking up a section by section using
the t3 curling iron and because this is
an everyday look I'm not going for
perfection here but I do like to have
just the end styled
so I'm brushing out after I of curled
upwards and I love to either wrap the
base of the pony with hair or add a
scrunchie over top of the base of the
pony oh or I'll use a ribbon so today I
went with a chanel bow and I think it
looks super cute with the 60s makeup and
the white turtleneck
I hope you enjoyed it my tips and tricks
for how I wear my go-to ponytail and if
you did it makes you give it a thumbs up
and subscribe but for more typically pop
culture videos but if you'd like to see
so if my own looks sprinkle two a.m. and
then I can do that sold out because they
typically have a vintage vibe but to
them anyway and they like to put them
under my vintage vibes a playlist also
I'm in a very filming mood so I'm going
to continue this video over on my blog
channel I do have a second channel where
I post daily oh that's a lie where I
post whenever I go on a trip I'll do a
travel vlog but I want to be posting
more consistently on there so I'm gonna
share a haul of some of the recent
purchases that I've got from cute stuff
like this bear to new fashion stuff so I
hope you'll check that out as well and
thank you so much for tagging me over on
Instagram I love it when you guys try
out a style and show it to me so I can
feature you in my videos thanks again

one
in chosen outros but if you enjoyed I
already said that... i need a snaaaac
