perk up the ponytail without teasing

Basically, all I did was divide the ponytail in half and place a hair clip in between close to the hair tie . In the picture I used a white clip just so you can see clearly but I suggest you use a hair clip that is the same color as your hair. And if you have thin hair feel free to use a smaller hair clip. I used a bigger hair clip just because I have thicker hair.

So that’s it girls! Told you it’s super quick and easy 🙂 I hope you like this tutorial and let me know if you want more of makeup or hair or fashion posts xx
