Giddy-Up with Ponytail Trends! How to wear this Season’s Ponytail This autumn’s fashionable hairstyles are great for hiding bad hair days. The most popular is the ponytail - but not just any ponytail! The style has evolved into something with the "wow" factor. Embrace these four hassle-free updos that are not just for the A-Listers. Up High |  | Fancy being wrinkle free? Of course you do, so try this style which screams “I mean business!” Scrape your hair back into a very high ponytail using plenty of product to keep it smooth and sleek. I recommend Aveda Custom Control Gel-Wax. Take a thick section from underneath the ponytail and wrap it around the base. Secure it in place with hairpins then use a hair straightener to give the ends a sleek finish. To avoid looking tacky, keep make-up simple and soft. I also advise the no jewelry approach to keep all the attention on your fabulous new hairdo.

Backcomb the front section with a comb, and then spritz Pantene Roots Booster Spray into the roots. Next gently comb smooth to hide the birds-nest effect and clip back. Gather the rest into a low side ponytail. Wear with lots if attitude!

How fabulous will you be! French braids can be tricky (I think I have the only Mum that can’t do one; yes, I really suffered as a child), so cheat by braiding your ponytail like Vanessa Hudgens. If you are feeling brave, try a French braid, keeping it low over your ears to stop it from looking too tight. It needs that loose feel so you don’t come across all Little House on the Prairie. Finish by setting everything with Bumble and Bumble Classic Hairspray. (Photo Credits: PR Photos) | It’s A Wrap |  | This style is perfect for work, a bar, or even a club. It is fuss-free and looks ultra cool. Work some hair mousse through damp hair to get a bit of texture and volume, and then loosely gather into a side ponytail. Wiggle your fingers through the roots to get a bouffant in the front, then take a leather thong and wrap it around the ponytail. Secure with a Kirby grip and let the ends of your hair hang wavy, and natural. | So grab your Gap jodhpurs and come over all equestrian with these fabulous ponytails!
