Da Phony Pony Thread

[jcdlox]

Which one did you get?

I would love to find a HH one that matches my airdried hair.

I bought this one, http://www.wigs.com/product_info.php?cPath=67_0_999&products_id=3482 and I'm thinking about buying the H107 but its a bit more pricey.

Aww man all that work for just 1 day that stinks- but that is the good thing about phony ponies you can get to your scalp as needed.

Invisible Pony: I used 2 tracks of Kinky Straight hair(dead match for my own) and bobby pins. Just makes my pony look a little thicker and a little longer

 

[neenzmj]

SelfStyled, I love this -- how did you make it "invisible?"

I can show you better than I can tell you. I am taking my son to BBall in a few, but when I get back I will put up some pics. It is easy breezzy.

 

[naturalmanenyc]

I just use bobby pins to attach phony ponies. I wrap the track around my own ponytail and secure with bobby pins.

Sorry, just seeing this. PM me with questions. I do not subscribe to threads.

@RegsWife, how did you attach the weft to your pony?

 

[crlsweetie912]

subbing....be back with pictures.

 

[dollface0023]

My ponie's never match my hair texture.

I do want to try a curly one soon though.

Nice hair ladies!

Okay, I am back for some reason, I could not log on at all yesterday.

Here is the YT video that I used for inspiration:
YouTube - Invisible/Inside Ponytail pictorial.

I liked this concept, but I had to tweak it without all the gel and I don't use hair glue.

I used 2 tracks and folded them in half for thickness

I make a part leaving my nape section out and place the first track. Center the track to the back of your head. You need some of your own hair out on the sides to make sure the track is covered.

Another angle so you can see what I am talking about leaving some of the sides out

After the 1st track is in, make another part and comb that section down over the first track, and then you will pin the 2nd track in

Next gather into a pony and your done

I just bobbied pin these 2 tracks in, I could have sewed wig clips on them to be more secure, I just have not done that yet.

 

[Nixx22jam]

my wrap around pony also very helpful when wet bunning

 

[neenzmj]

Thanks so much for posting these pictures. Are the tracks fairly secure with the bobby pins?

 

[SelfStyled]

That looks great Nix. How did you do it?

Neenzmj- Your Welcome! It is really secure, there are a total of 4 bobby pins.

 

[Nixx22jam]

Thanks; the tracks of hair are wrapped on individually around each other.

Selfstyled, I've looked at this creative tip you gave over a year ago about cutting a hole in a phony pony and fanning your hair out over it, and the light bulb just went on for me. I tried it last night with an old bun I had. The bun works OK by itself, but it looked much more natural when I fanned my own hair over it!

Thanks for sharing all this helpful information. I'm always excited to gain fun new options for hairstyles.

Hi Ladies

I have been in this thread marvelling at all the creative ponys and methods.
I have very fine hair and after a relaxer it is especially so. Attaching the phony pony or UPA clip for me is therefore not so secure as I always fear it will fall off.

So after my recent touch up I was really trying to find something to help me. I have neck length hair and you know necklength+fine hair=a very pathetic thin bun or ponytail.

I recently asked about sewing in a few tracks into the hair and thanks for the responses I received. I tried it yesterday. I sewed in three tracks of weave weft in the middle portion of my head/hair. The results are below.

If you look carefully at the 2nd Pic you can see where my hair ends and the weave hair continues.

For those interested - I used EPRT (Extensions Plus Relaxed Texture)

I hope this can help me have my hair in a bun or pony tail until I get enough growth to get my braids back

Ooh, thanks for showing this. I was talking to my stylist about doing this with EPRT. Great job! It looks natural.

Did you try the sewed in tracks Neenzmj?

I have been wearing a phony ponytail since March 2010. I do have to say that this has made my hair turn around. I am transitioning to natural since my hair thinned out due to a bad texlax(done by me) Nov 2009. When I first started I had a problem putting all my hair in a bun. But today I have nice size bun and can position my phony pony afro anywhere on my head.
