Ariana Grande is not only famous for that amazing voice, but also for her super cute ponytail hairstyle! “I am back with a fun twist on the half up ponytail for you to try,” explains Ariba Pervaiz, contributor for www.Latest-Hairstyles.com.

“This ‘do is ideal for those days I want to wear my hair down and still add a bit of interest. The “V” shape parting adds just the right amount of edge to this playful hairstyle. The elastic in the pony is seamlessly concealed with the help of a strong hold hairspray. I learned this technique while working backstage at Toronto Fashion Week and I am super excited to share it with you! This half up pony works great with straight or curly hair. In this tutorial I will be creating texture in the form of bouncy waves. Let’s get started!”

Recreate This Chic Half Up Ponytail:

Step 1

Create a diagonal parting starting at the center of your hairline, running back towards the crown on the right side.

Step 2

Create the same diagonal parting starting at the center point of your hairline and back towards the crown on the left side as well. Add a final horizontal parting to connect the two diagonal partings and create a triangular-shaped section.

Step 3

Tie off the triangle section with an elastic band.

Step 4

Place the ponytail forward and take a small section from the back of the ponytail. Tease the section several times. Continue teasing small sections of hair until the entire ponytail is teased.

Step 5

Take a small section from the ponytail and spray it generously with hairspray until it resembles a piece of ribbon. Wrap it around the elastic to conceal it.

Step 6

Generously spray hairspray to the ends of the section to secure it into place.
