How to Fake a Thicker Ponytail

In the video, Appleton explains how to thicken the look of your ponytail in three easy steps. Follow along as we break it down, below. 

STEP 1: Split Your Hair in Two 

After getting your two hair ties ready, Appleton says to split your hair into two sections — a top part and a bottom part. 

STEP 2: Secure Your First Pony

Using one of the hair elastics, secure the top half of your hair in a high ponytail. 

STEP 3: Split Again and Style

Split the bottom part of the hair into two and bring the pieces up to where you’ve secured the high ponytail. Take your second elastic and tie those two pieces onto the original ponytail. “This makes you look like you’ve got double the amount of hair,” Appleton explains. 


To make your perfect ponytail look even fuller, I suggest adding texture using the Garnier Fructis Texture Tease Dry Touch Finishing Spray. It adds the appearance of volume and body without making strands feel sticky, stiff or weighed down.
