How The Infamous High Ponytail Came To Be
After introducing myself as an educator and launching The Perfect Ponytail, one question kept coming from stylists around the world: "What's next?"
Time after time, they requested one style in particular the high ponytail.
I wasn't sure what technique I wanted to teach next, but my students were. Their excitement, encouragement, and confidence in my teaching made the decision easy, and that's how The Infamous High Ponytail was born.
To me, this style is one of the essential skills every ponytail specialist should master. Beyond healthy hair care, much of what we do as hairstylists is the art of hair manipulation, and in my opinion, the high ponytail represents the peak of that skill. It challenges your precision, your patience, and your ability to create a flawless result.
I nicknamed it "The Infamous High Ponytail" for several reasons, but the biggest is this: it will test your patience.
Inside this training, I'll guide you step-by-step through the techniques, placement, product control, and hair care considerations needed to confidently create this signature style from start to finish.
I can't wait to help you master one of the most requested ponytail techniques in my signature collection.
With social media and influencers like Ka$hDoll or Jayda Wayda ponytails are one of those styles that changes as the wind blows but the foundation remains the same. I want you to become so confident that no matter the inspo photo you can slay every single ponytail with ease. I created this course to give you:
✔ A stronger understanding of high ponytail placement
✔ Techniques for creating a smooth, controlled foundation
✔ Confidence building height and balance
✔ A cleaner approach to molding and finishing
✔ A step-by-step system you can practice and implement
✔ Greater confidence creating bold ponytail transformations



The Infamous High Ponytail was created by a hairstylist for hairstylists. The training focuses on the details that matter most behind the chair, including placement, preparation, molding, extension placement, and finishing.
The videos are designed to help you clearly see the process so you can study the technique, practice the steps, and build confidence through repetition.
