You can’t possibly miss the OTT poufs and exaggerated updos while watching a movie from the 60s or 70s. Those bouffant hairstyles were dramatic and high on glam (quite literally). *Newsflash* The retro bouffant is back; this time it’s minimalistic and understated, but just as chic.
We are spotting celebrities flaunting the modern take on the vintage bouffant every day and a ponytail seems to be their favourite look to team with this puffed up style. Here are three of the best celebrity looks with a modern bouffant ponytail that we are in love with right now.
Retro chic
This ponytail style is giving us major vintage vibes. A dramatic bouffant, fluffy ponytail and black hairband tied in a bow—what’s not to love. Tease your hair from the crown and pull it into a ponytail. Backcomb the ponytail hair to make it fuzzy and voluminous and finish it by throwing on a satin hairband.
Messy bouffant
If you are looking for a hairstyle with a modern take on the bouffant, your search ends with this messy ponytail. Create a centre parting of two inches from the front and brush back the rest of your hair. Backcomb to create a subtle bouffant and make a ponytail. Tug and pull some hair from the crown to make it poufy and pull some flicks from the front for that messy look.
Low ponytail
Sleek in the front and tousled and messy at the crown, this ponytail gives you the best of both worlds. To get this glamorous look, start by spraying some texturizing hairspray. Part your hair down the centre and brush the front sections back. Tease the hair from the crown and pull your entire mane into a low ponytail. Now tame the flyaways on the front by brushing them in place and let the hair from the crown be tousled and puffy.
