How to do a sleek weave ponytail
I want to note that you need to have shoulder-length hair for this method.
Step 1: Lay your hair down
Firstly, section your hair. It’s obvious that different parts create distinguished hairstyles to you.
If you don’t want any part, just use the edge control and comb your hair backward. In case you choose middle part or side part, it is much better to separate your tress horizontally at the top and secure it with an elastic band. Then, add some edge control to your lower part to set it down, gather it into a high ponytail or low ponytail depending on your favorite. After that, let’s define the frontal section according to middle part or side part. Don’t forget to style your baby hair in hairline and lay them down with a fabrics.
Secondly, braid the rest.
No need any technique here, you just braid and tie it normal. Then, apply some moisturizer to it. When you squeeze your hair into a braid and tie it, you hair may get damages so this step is very important.
Step 2: Apply the weave
The weave is usually about 1.4 meters to 2.1 meters basing on their standards and hair length. In case you want to have an exactly width for the weft, you should tell your hair vendor to design for you. Or else, you can cut the weft into smaller pieces to easier install. In case you want big volume for your weave ponytail, just fold the weave so it is much thicker.
We start with the loop of the weave, put a bobby pin (or two for better durability) through the track and secure it to the end of your braid near the elastic bands. Then, scroll the weft around the braid tightly. You should add more bobby pins every few circle or the weave hair extensions will fall out easily. Keep going until it reaches the top of your ponytail. If 1 bundle is not enough, just add more until you find it fulfill your natural hair.
Step 3: Finish your hairdo
Now, you can realize that the seam of hair extensions and your tress is exposed. Thus, you need to hide it. You should take a small strand of hair, add edge control and comb it thoroughly. Then, simply wrap around the ponytail root and secure it with bobby pins. For curly or wavy hair, you should tousle the hair a little bit to have bigger volume and natural look.
