6 Ponytail Hacks You Have to Try

The ponytail hairstyle is an easy go-to for whenever you're in a rush... but that doesn't mean they have to be boring! Here are 6 easy hacks you can try for yourself to make a statement with your pony!

1) Propped with bobby-pins

For this look: Insert two bobby-pins securely underneath your elastic and then flip the hair in the ponytail over top to create a high pony look with more height and bounce


2) Inverted ponytail



For this look: Pull hair into loose ponytail. Separate hair above the elastic and pull the pony through the hole. You can wear this look to the side as well as to the back.


3) Hair around elastic


For this look: Form the ponytail where ever you would like (low or high). Then take a small strand up to the elastic and wrap it around until it is concealed. Secure in place with a bobby-pin.


4) Twisted sides

For this look: Take two low sections from the bottom of each side and twist back to the back of the head. Pull the rest of the hair back and secure it all together with an elastic.

5) Teased crown

For this look: Take an upper section of your crown and tease to your desire height. Then carefully collect the remaining hair and pull back to secure with an elastic.


6) Two ponytails

For this look: Create easy length in your pony by using two ponytails. First, take the bottom half of your hair and secure into an elastic at the back middle of your head. Then, take the remaining top portion and secure into an elastic above the first ponytail. This will cover the first ponytail and give the illusion of one long, voluminous ponytail.

8 Things I Realized After My First Semester In College

Actually, Kylie Jenner, 2018 is the year of realizing things.

The first semester of college is famous for being one of the most difficult transitions of one's young adult life. You're thrown into a completely new area where the majority of the people surrounding you are strangers in an academic environment that's much more challenging then what you've grown accustomed to for the past twelve years. On top of that, you probably share a room with another person (or even multiple people) on the lumpiest "mattress" you've ever slept on.

With this change comes a lot of questions: what do I want to major in? What am I passionate about? Is what I'm passionate about something I'm actually good at? Why does the bathroom smell like cranberry juice and vodka? What is that thing at the bottom of the shower drain?

6 Unrealistic Expectations Society Has For Young Adults

Don't let the thesaurus-inspired vocabularies in our résumés fool you. We're actually just big kids.

Well over four feet tall and 100 pounds in weight, many of us "young adults" of the world still consider ourselves children. Big, working, college-attending, beer-drinking children. We may live on our own, know how to cook noodles, and occasionally use a planner, but don't be fooled; the youthful tendencies that reside within us still make their way into our daily lives. From choosing to stay up until 3:00 a.m. playing video games on a school night to going out in 30 degree weather without a coat, we still make decisions that our parents and grandparents would shake their heads at in disappointment. So why are we expected to know exactly how to be a wise, professional, sensible adult? It's not that we're irresponsible (for the most part, anyway). It's that we are young, inexperienced, and still have the sought-after, enthusiastic mentality that we can do and be whatever we want, which has not yet been tarnished by the reality of the world. These are just a few of the unrealistic expectations that society has for young adults.
