A far cry from the too-high cheerleader pony, Vanessa Hudgens opted for a carefree, textured ponytail at a Charity Meets Fashion event in New York City. We like how her soft ringlets made the style modern and balanced the statement made by her bold lip color. When it comes to placing a super-high ponytail like Hudgens’, use the natural line of your cheekbone as a guide. If you’re unsure, aim a little higher. Tilt your head backward as you gather your hair to ensure you don’t leave out any strands around the nape of your neck, then fasten with a hair elastic. Choose a ponytail holder close to your own hair color to make the look streamlined, or wrap a section of hair around the elastic to disguise it.
