Work that Updo

You shouldn’t have to force anything, including your ponytail! Relationships, friendships, yoga pose. NOPE. This post is dedicated to the “perfect” ponytail, because IMO every ponytail is perfect. Queue the MadTV skit, Can I Get Your Number. “Own that ponytail, work that updo” ladies!

Steps to Achieve:

  1. Have hair
  2. Have a hair tie
  3. Throw it up
  4. Flip it

In all seriousness, it took me AWHILE to grow out my hair to get a long ponytail. The trick is to keep your hair healthy is a combination of topical treatments and a healthy lifestyle. I know, I know. We’ve all heard this a million times, but it’s 150% TRUE. In order to have healthy hair that’s shiny, bouncy, and long you need to eat right and exercise. You’ll definitely see the results in your hair, skin, and nails within a couple months <3

Although I am a a believer in inside out philosophy – when it comes to healthy hair – there are products that will help! My favorites are below 🙂

  • it’s a 10 Miracle Leave-In Product
    • Amazon Description – A high performance leave-in treatment that imparts shine, creates silkiness & preserves hair color smoothes & detangles hair to reduce frizz
    • Not only does this detangle my thick hair, but it also conditions post shower and prepares it with built in heat protectant. All my friends use it too and we are all obsessed!

Plus it smells INCREDIBLE!!
