Please welcome Rebecca! She’ll be sharing some amazing hairstyles with us every month. Isn’t her hair color divine?!
Do you remember doing a pull-through ponytail in junior high and feeling extra fancy for the day? I certainly do and this hairstyle is a more sophisticated take on that preteen classic–although it’s just as easy as the original!
Soft and romantic, it’s perfect for an evening out or even works nicely on a windy autumn day to keep your hair out of your face. All you need is a few hair elastics and medium to long hair.
Step One: Tie a small, loose ponytail on the top of your head using a clear elastic.
Step Two: Above the elastic, divide your hair into two sections, then flip your ponytail upside down and push it fully through this opening.
Step Three: Repeat the previous steps by gathering half of your hair in another loose ponytail. Divide the hair above your new elastic into two parts and flip your ponytail upside down and push it through the opening.
Step Four: Repeat the steps one last time using all of your hair.
Step Five: Finish the look by loosening each twist and allowing some stray hairs to escape for a softer, more romantic look.
Easy, but so pretty, right? I like how it looks “fancy” but is fairly effortless and it just continues to look better as it gets messier throughout the day. This is a good style for summer months, but I actually really like up-dos in the fall when it starts to get windy and scarves turn my hair into a rat’s nest.
We’ve had awful weather here lately and wearing your hair down is just begging for a mess of tangles when you get home! Cheers, Rebecca.

That hair colour is to die for (it’s in my favorite to show my colorist!!!!). I have hair about that long too and I’ve just started doing stuff like this with it in the last year and a half (I’m 29…..I don’t know what took me so long!). I guess your blog has given me a lot of great ideas! I’m starting a new job Monday….I think I’m gonna try this one!
My mom did my hair like this when I was little in the 90s and we called it a topsy turvy!
your hair is such a beautiful color! I love the hair style as well 🙂
Des tas de choses horribles se sont passées et elles n’ont jamais mentionné quoi que ce soit sur le blog. Elles ne sont pas là pour couvrir l’actualité ni parler de choses totalement déprimantes.
Moi je trouve choquant que vous soyez choquée maintenant et pas les autres fois. Très égoïste selon moi.
Both the hair itself and the tutorials are so amazing!! Xx

This is such a lovely hair style! So glad Rebecca is on ABM! I love her instagram!
What happened to Katie and her beautiful red hair? Love Rebecca’s hair too.
Hey! That’s easy enough that even I could do it! And best of all it’s super pretty!
Looking forward to more from Rebecca 🙂
Love this! I always hate when my hair blows around in the wind too but a basic ponytail feels unprofessional. This is a great other option to have up my sleeve! And I love that Rebecca will be posting here 🙂 one of my other favorite bloggers.
Doing this look this weekend!
