Looking for a new play on a ponytail that’s unique and fun? Look no further than The Chinese Staircase. This is one of those hairstyles that look extremely complicated, but in fact are quite simple. But, regardless of the skill level needed for this style, either way it will be sure to be a conversation starter! See the steps below!
Step 1: Take a strand from the front of your head and hold apart from the rest of your hair. Gather the rest of your hair to the side and secure with an elastic.
Step 2: Grip the strand with one hand, and using the other wrap the strand around the front of the ponytail and loop it to create a knot.
Step 3: Gather another strand of hair from the ponytail and combine it with the end of your knot. Add a small amount of gel to combine the two pieces to avoid fly-away’s.
Steps 4-10: Repeat steps 2 & 3 on the new strand of hair. Continue these steps as far down as you would like.
Step 11: Secure the bottom with an elastic.
Voila! And there you have it! You’ve created a look that is anything but ordinary. So the next time you’re looking to put your hair in a ponytail, try this version to spice it up!
