If you need to look put together quickly but are in a rush, this half-up, half-down hairstyle may be the thing for you. Easy to style and looking lovely, it has an air of chic about it while being quick and effortless to manage. Plus, it adds more volume than standard ponytails with its more voluminous appearance and decorative finishes; it also works great when combined with hair decorations! To achieve this look, start by creating a high ponytail.
