As you add new units on either side, alternate them.
Ponytail

Side Part
After years of being eclipsed by middle parts, side parts are slowly returning and looking chicer than ever. From dramatic deep side parts to effortless slick-back styles, side parts will suit all facial structures beautifully. To create an ideal side part, locate where your hair naturally separates and follow it. This will produce a sleek, polished finish perfect for everyday looks. Adding a side part also works excellent to work around cowlicks; either allow it to flow with the hair or cover them completely – Plus, it’s quick and straightforward!
Middle Part
Gen Zers are known for preferring sleek, even looks – which could explain why middle parts have become such a trend. These face-framing hairstyles highlight robust facial features while attenuating areas that are harder to conceal with side parts. If a whole middle part is too drastic for your taste, consider switching it up with a diagonal position instead. It is an excellent solution for those seeking an iconic, down-the-middle look but are worried about maintaining balance within their asymmetry. Pair a middle part and waves for an irresistibly romantic date night look! A heat protectant, anti-humectant, and texturizer will ensure an extra clean style; use a round brush to dry strands before finishing your look with hairspray.
