Bubble ponytails are officially 2021’s favourite street style trend! This adorable hairstyle might be a throwback to the 90s, but Gen Z has adopted it as a hairdo worthy of being worn in all of their TikTok/Reels dances. As for the millennials, we are innovative about the bubble ponytail to go with our pantsuits and sexy party LBDs. And while the bubble ponytail is stunning to look at, it also happens to be super easy to recreate. Here are some of the trendy ways you can wear the style this year...
01. Scrunchie delight

Replace your hair ties with scrunchies or mix and match both to create a chic and stylish bubble ponytail. Keep it low if you are wearing it to a work meeting; pair it with a centre part pinned down by pearly barrettes for added drama.
02. High and mighty

If you can create at least three bubbles, you are good to go. For shorter hair lengths, a tight and sleek high bubble ponytail like this will look ridiculously hot!
03. Double trouble

Bubble pigtails are already a bohemian delight, but if you are looking for something more statement, these high twin ponytails are a good option. We love the face-framing tendrils in the front, and that fluffy hair tie gives it a nice K-Pop vibe that fans of the genre will love!
04. Textured bubble

A bubble ponytail doesn’t always have to be cute and sleek; it can be textured and eddy as well. Combining Dutch braids on top and tight bubbles in the bottom, this hairdo looks cool. We especially love the rogue strand of hair pulled out from the bottom; it adds an effortless charm to the hairstyle.
05. Braided bubble

The braided bubble is as just as easy to create as a ponytail is. All you need to do is tie your hair up, braid it, section it with hair ties and then pull the braided sections apart. A braided ponytail is a perfect option for frizzy-haired girls who need a little help keeping the flyaways neatly tucked in.
