First, apply a heat protectant to your hair and then smooth it out with a flat iron for extra smoothness. If you have naturally smooth hair, you can skip this step. Then gather your hair into a low ponytail at the back of your head and secure it with a rubber band. Then take the ponytail itself and twist it into a tight plait. Fasten it at the bottom of your head, using bobby pins or other hairpins. You can use shiny hairpins to make your hairstyle stand out even more.

If you have long hair, this hairstyle is perfect for you! The length of your hair will give the ponytail a sophisticated look. But if your native hair is not long enough, then use an artificial material that is very similar to hair, called Kanekalon. It can be matched to the color of your native hair, or it can be the opposite, in another brighter color to create a beautiful color transition or contrast.

If you have oblique bangs, you can also include them in this hairstyle. Simply brush your hair into a sleek ponytail, but leave the bangs untouched. Then braid it into a tight braid, secure it with an elastic band or barrette, and then apply a fixing gel to the bangs. Brush the bangs to the side in which you have the best hair.

This low, sleek ponytail can also be created with two braids. Simply divide your hair into two sections and then braid each section into a tight braid. Secure each braid with an elastic band or barrette. When doing this, keep an eye on the parietal area, the hair on it should be combed out smoothly, for which you can use a fixing mousse.

If you want to create a low, smooth ponytail with a transition ring, first gather the hair in a ponytail at the back of the head and secure it with a rubber band. Then take the ponytail itself and twist it into a tight braid. Fix it in the lower part of the head with bobby pins or other means, and after the braided braid of kanekalon, add it on the ring and fasten it.
