The placement of the ponytail is key. Wondering how high you should go? Toth has a suggestion: "If you could draw a continuing imaginary line extending from the angle of the straps on your face mask, then that will guide where the ponytail should be. I like pairing a higher ponytail with face masks that have one loop around each ear. Those straps go upward from your mouth and chin region to your ear. So when you brush your hair away from your face you should brush it all upward in a direction that mimics the upward line or angle created by your ear loops."
If you're falling asleep just reading the word "ponytail," adding a simple braid or twist can transform the style in a pinch. "Remember you can turn any ponytail into a braid — that's an easy twist on the go-to look for summer," he said.
