A ponytail with weave provides extra length and volume to your natural hair. It’s a popular method if you want a fuller, longer ponytail look without waiting for your hair to grow. You can also make it as high- or low-maintenance as you wish, getting creative with the style. Look at the variety of styles you can do yourself or have a professional create for you.

4 Weave Ponytail Styles Without a Flat Iron

If you want a ponytail that blends with your natural hair, making it easier to maintain, styles that do not require a flat iron or other high-heat tools are likely your best option. If you just removed box braids and want a style that does not overwork your hair when it is too fragile for relaxer or heat styling, the right weave can create a fresh ponytail in any of these styles:

1. Curly weave ponytails can have deep curls that provide volume and bounce or ringlets that offer a romantic, soft look.
2. Wavy ponytails with weaves can have a relaxed beach vibe or loose waves for a subtle but chic appearance.
3. Textured weaves create a look that works well with natural African hair textures.
4. Faux locs ponytails use deadlock extensions pulled into a high or low ponytail or goddess locs to combine wavy ends with the traditional dreadlocked look.

These styles provide versatility without the need for heat and allow you to change your look while minimizing potential hair damage. When you see a professional for salon services, your stylist will walk you through the requirements for each look and help you find the right one for you.

4 Styles for a High Ponytail With Weave

High ponytails are among the most versatile styles. You can dress them up for a wedding or prom or keep them casual for an everyday look. Choose from these trendy or timeless styles:

1. Bubble-high ponytails or pigtails create a fun look you can decorate with hair ties and accessories. This works well with textured hair.
2. High-weave ponytails with volume look great with loose curls or a touch of waves. These are a nice choice if you want to get creative with different colors.
3. Rapunzel braids require a ponytail with a long weave to add extra length that blends seamlessly into your hair.
4. Natural slick-back ponytails are a classic look you can adjust to make them unique. You need a hairpiece close to your curl pattern, allowing you to attach it at the base where you tie your natural hair.

Keep in mind that when done wrong, a high ponytail can damage your hair at the scalp near the crown. Talk to a professional about the look you want and how to protect your hair from breakage.

5 Unique Weave Ponytail Braids

Ponytail braids combine the elegance and protection of braids with the volume and length you get from a weave. These styles use a unique spin on traditional braids:

1. Feed-in braided ponytails use smaller braids to gradually feed into a thicker braid, adding extensions to give the ponytail more length and thickness.
2. Fishtail weave ponytails split the hair and weave into two sections and intricately braid in a fishtail pattern. This creates a more detailed, sophisticated look.
3. Triple braid ponytails divide into three sections, braiding each section separately before combining all three into one singular braided ponytail.
4. Twisted crown ponytails twist or braid the front hair at the crown to form a halo. You then pull the remaining hair, including the weave, into a braided ponytail at the back.
5. Box braids into a weave ponytail is a look you can change more often. Using extensions, create individual box braids and gather them into a high or low ponytail, leaving the ends loose or twisting into a larger braid.

These distinct styles capture attention and offer a harmonious blend of the traditional and modernity. With a basic understanding of how to do a ponytail with weave, you can make choices for your hair texture that keep it healthy.

How To Make a Ponytail With Weave in a Simple Step-by-Step Method

There are five simple steps for adding weave to a ponytail that change slightly to accommodate different styles:

1. Prepare the hair. Ensure your natural hair and the weave are clean, detangled, and dry. You may want to straighten your natural hair, especially at the roots, to ensure a smoother integration with the weave.
2. Section and secure. Divide your natural hair horizontally into two sections. The bottom section is from ear to ear, and the top area encompasses the remaining hair. Secure the top section with a hair clip to keep it out of the way.
3. Attach the weave. Starting from one end of the weave track, align it to the base of the bottom section, near the nape. Use hairpins to secure the weave by inserting them through the track and into your natural hair. Continue wrapping the weave around the base, securing it with pins as you go, until the entire track is in your hair.
4. Combine and secure the ponytail. Release the top section of your natural hair. Using a hairbrush, gently brush your natural hair and the weave together, ensuring a smooth blend. Once you combine both, gather the hair into a high or low ponytail and secure it with a hair tie.
5. Finishing touches. To hide the hair tie and create a polished look, take a small section of the ponytail, wrap it around the base, and secure the end with a bobby pin. Then apply product to add shine and reduce any frizz.

Remember to take care of your natural hair and the weave by regularly cleaning and moisturizing. Your ponytail can last a long time with proper installation and maintenance from an experienced stylist and high-quality weave.
