Centre-parted and super clean, the low ponytail is your go-to when the humidity rises. “Ponytails are so cool,” says LA-based celebrity hairstylist Jonathan Colombini, who regularly tends to the locks of Kylie and Kendall Jenner. “It’s one of the sexiest hairstyles.”
Want in on the chic (and oh-so-easy) hairstyle? Simon Bright, Creative Director at Jonny + June Hair, talks us through this effortless updo.

Blow-dry smooth
“Comb through a heat-protecting product into clean hair and blow-dry with the air direction down to create a smooth, sleek look,” advises Bright. We like L’Oréal Paris Hair Expertise SuperSleek Smoothing Blow-Dry Mist.

Iron your strands so they're even smoother
“Follow with hot irons to maintain the sleekness, then spray a nylon or boar bristle brush with hairspray to help tame frizz and reduce static to give you that sleek vibe.” Try Goldwell Kerasilk Control Humidity Barrier Spray.

Give hair a gorgeous glossy finish
Secure hair at the nape of the neck and then “finish with a lightweight gloss.” Try Bumble and bumble Hairdresser’s UV Protective Dry Oil Finishing Spray.
