Lulus How-To: Topsy Ponytail Hair Tutorial

Published by

We’re turning your everyday ponytail on its head with this week’s Topsy Ponytail Hair Tutorial! We love how this look mimics the classic look of a french braid but with half the hassle! Take a peek at our tutorial below for tips on how to achieve this fun style!

Steps:

  1. Begin by creating three evenly spaced ponytails and securing with small elastic hair-ties.
  2. Starting from the top, slide each hair-tie slightly away from your head to make room for the topsy.
  3. Next, create a hole behind the top hair-tie and flip the pony up, then down through the hole.
  4. Continue by combining the top and middle ponytails together (repeating the previous step for the 2nd and 3rd topsy).
  5. Complete the look by tightening or loosening each section to your preference!

Note: The topsy ponytails should hide the elastic hair-ties but use bobby-pins as needed.

  • There I go. I've been trying to learn the french braid but was all thumbs at it. Then I ran across this Topsy Tail on Pinterest and found interest. THEN I discovered that I can get the french braid look with this tutorial. Wow! It's amazing what a little research can turn up. And now, thanks for the tut to show me exactly how. This old woman is looking for an easier way to keep my high-maintainance hair to a minimum in my old age. Thanks so much, Sherry

  • Hi,
    I saw this tutorial but I don't really understand how to proceed after flipping top and middle tail through. Please explain because I really like how this hairdo looks ?.
    Thanks!
