How To: Smooth & Centered Low Ponytail

This week has been a doozy, and I'm glad it's over. I'm not sure if it's the new year, or if it's this time of year, but I'm currently in a no-fuss kinda mode.  I've been more into things being clean, simple, and easy. It's translated into my beauty routine as well.  Hair is even having a minimalist moment. Take today's hairstyle, for instance.  Seen all over the runways, the smooth and sleek low ponytail with a dramatic center part is so big right now. It adds instant sophistication and luckily for us, it can be easily recreated. I was sent some of the amazing new Suave Professionals Luxe Style Infusion Smoothing collection and was really impressed with how well it worked. This is so easy, y'all.

First, a little background on my hair. It's naturally wavy, coarse, and is frizzy. The latter trait is even further enhanced thanks to the humidity of living in the South. Wavy, frizzy city, y'all. And I managed to sleek it down using just one product.

1-I think this is the first time I've shared my wet hair on the blog. Ha! Anyway, the first thing I did was apply Suave Professionals Luxe Style Infusion Smoothing Light Weight Weather Proof Cream through my combed out damp hair.

2-Using this brush and a hair dryer, I straightened my hair. I skipped using the nozzle on the dryer here, since I'm using this type of brush, but use if you'd like.

If you already have straight hair, go ahead and part hair down the center then smooth over frizz and flyaways with a dime sized amount of the Suave Professionals Luxe Style Infusion Smoothing Light Weight Weather Proof Cream.

3-Gather hair into a low ponytail and secure with a clear elastic (pictured above). Wrap a small section of hair from the ponytail around the elastic and secure with bobby pins.

4-Optional: Run a flat iron over the ponytail for an extra smooth finish.

That's it! Thanks to the Suave Professionals Luxe Style Infusion Smoothing Light Weight Weather Proof Cream, this hairstyle has survived the crazy weather this week of rain, snow, sleet, and more rain. All WEEK! It's that good. Now, go get ya some!
