PONYTAIL EXTENSIONS

With Extensions to the Perfect Ponytail

Want to create a ponytail using hair extensions or hair thickening products? With our ponytail extensions, it's super easy! A ponytail is a hairstyle where long hair is tied up with a hair tie or elastic band. It can be tied at the top or back of the head, and there are no creative limits to the variations: you can make a high ponytail, tie it at the nape of your neck or in the middle of your head, and more.

What Can You Do with Rubin Ponytail Extensions?

Anything you can do with your natural hair, you can also do with our ponytail extensions. You can tie a very high ponytail that starts almost at the top of your head or create a low, sleek ponytail. The sleek ponytail is combed back tightly, fixed with lots of hairspray, and sits low at the nape of your neck. A half-up ponytail also looks great, where you leave the lower part of your hair down and fix the extensions only on the top section. Want even more variety? Then make a bun from your ponytail extension for an incredibly voluminous look.

Whether you prefer curls or a straight ponytail, both are easily achievable with our real hair ponytail extensions in Remy hair quality. You can switch up your style every day and use styling products and hair colors as you please. So, feel free to unleash your creativity.

Another cute and playful look is two ponytails. With two ponytail extensions, you can make two ponytails on the left and right sides of your head. You can braid them or create fishtail braids. This hairstyle is also perfect for occasions where costumes are involved. You can color your real hair ponytail with a colored hairspray and still go to work the next day as usual. Just remove your colored clip-in ponytail after the event, and your real hair remains unharmed. Wash the extensions and use them again next time as usual.

Look Like Ariana Grande with Ponytail Extensions!

What defines Ariana Grande's style? We probably all agree that her ponytail is her signature look. But why does she wear it so often? You might remember Ariana from "Victorious." In this Nickelodeon series, she played the red-haired Cat and had to dye her hair frequently. According to her, this caused severe damage to her hair, making it short and brittle. That's why Ariana wears her ponytail extensions almost every day.

Her look is characterized by the high ponytail, the hair tie covered by her own hair strands, and the strands that often hang in her face.

How Quickly Can I Attach Rubin Ponytail Extensions?

Our clip-in ponytail is super easy to attach. You can literally create a ponytail in seconds. If you want to invest more time and smooth your hair with hairspray and other styling products, the ponytail will naturally take a bit longer. We’ll explain how to attach your ponytail extension in three simple steps:

1. Make a ponytail. If your hair is very short, you can also make a small bun, which won’t be noticeable afterward.
2. Secure the hair clip above the hair tie. The loose strand of hair should be on the right side.
3. Wrap the loose strand of hair around the ponytail and secure it with the integrated pin.

You can style your ponytail before attaching it. Curl it or straighten it, depending on the look you want.

The Origin of the Terms Ponytail and Pferdeschwanz

As you might have guessed, the name originated due to its resemblance to the real tails of horses or ponies.

This hairstyle was already worn by ancient Roman and Greek women. Many paintings from those times depict women with high-up hairstyles, resembling our modern high ponytail. A full, voluminous ponytail represents a timeless beauty ideal. How lucky we are today to have extensions for that! The women of ancient Rome and Greece didn’t have it so easy.

Nowadays, men also wear ponytails. And you’ll likely agree, there’s nothing quite like an attractive man bun! The hairstyle has evolved and has been made trendy by style icons like Audrey Hepburn, Jennifer Lopez, and of course, the ponytail queen Ariana Grande. If you think ponytails are only for sports, think again. It’s one of the most versatile hairstyles ever. Whether on a date or shopping, it always fits!

Another advantage is the practicality and comfort. A ponytail keeps your hair out of your face and neck, making it a very comfortable hairstyle, especially in summer.

Who Are Ponytail Extensions Suitable For?

Clip-in extensions are generally suitable for everyone, including ponytail extensions. They are especially recommended for those who like to change their style frequently and don’t want to wear the same look every day. As seen with Ariana Grande, they can also be ideal for those who want to wear the same hairstyle every day. If you have short hair and prefer a beautiful, full ponytail, Rubin Switzerland's ponytail extensions are just right for you!

According to a study, it’s still considered a societal taboo for a woman over 50 to wear long hair. However, if we look at Hollywood, we can see that this view is now completely outdated. Jennifer Lopez and Halle Berry are prime examples of why this prejudice is no longer valid. They rock the ponytail even in their 50s, with full conviction and passion.

Many women at this age already suffer from hair loss or brittle hair, which is why they often prefer to wear their hair short. But this doesn’t have to be the case because, with Rubin extensions, even those with brittle or thin hair can regain a natural and vital look. Our ponytail extensions meet the highest Swiss quality standards and, with proper care, can last a long time.

Who Are Ponytail Extensions Not Suitable For?

In principle, anyone can wear ponytail hair extensions. However, if you want to wake up with long hair every morning, you might be better off using tape-in extensions, bonding extensions, or microring extensions.

With these permanent methods, the hair strands are not removed. They remain permanently in the natural hair. So if you prefer to have long hair all the time, even while swimming, in the sauna, or during sports, you should opt for these alternatives.

How Long Do Rubin Switzerland's Ponytail Extensions Last?

Ponytail extensions typically have a very long lifespan due to their temporary use. They are less exposed to environmental factors than extensions that stay in the hair permanently. As a result, you can use them much longer than bonding or tape extensions.

You might think that quality isn’t as important with temporary hair extensions like ponytail extensions. However, that’s definitely wrong. With hair extensions and thickening products that aren’t made of real hair, you can create far fewer styles. For example, you can’t work with heat because synthetic hair would melt. Additionally, synthetic hair is much harder to wash or care for compared to real hair. Real hair extensions also give you a very natural and vibrant look. For these reasons, we always use 100% Remy hair for all our extension collections.

How Do I Properly Care for Ponytail Extensions?

Ponytail extensions require less care than extensions that are worn permanently in the hair. They are also not constantly exposed to the sun, wind, and other weather conditions. Otherwise, the same rules apply as for natural hair: washing too often is not advisable! So instead, apply a quick treatment with spray conditioner as long as you can avoid washing.
