Bantu Knot Ponytail

I love wearing this style for a full ponytail with lots of body.

The challenge is that with my hair being so thick that a regular ponytail ends up looking a little “young” on me, and I need to look professional at the office. With this style, I get the illusion of long hair coming out of a high ponytail. This is how I achieve this look…

I wear two ponytails that give the illusion of a single ponytail from afar. This works because the waviness of my hair covers the bottom ponytail. It is very simple yet offers dramatic results.


Many of us probably wore the double ponytail style as a little girl LOL. What do you think of this style? What styles do you wear to create the look of longer, thicker hair?
