Braided Ponytail

About the Braided Ponytail

Cut & Silhouette: Description: Cornrows on the scalp transitioning into a high, long braided ponytail. Key Details: Multiple cornrows are tightly braided against the scalp, originating from the front hairline and sides, curving towards the back. All cornrows gather into a single high ponytail. Ear coverage: above-ear (ears fully exposed). Sideburns: integrated into the tight braids, not visible as loose hair. Nape/neckline: Not visible. Updo/gathering: High ponytail constructed from individual braids. Length: Overall: Ponytail length approximately 22-24 in (56-61 cm) from its base, extending past the chest. Front: Hair is braided flat against the scalp. Sides: Hair is braided flat against the scalp. Back/Nape: Not visible (as loose hair); hair is tightly braided into the ponytail. Fringe: No loose fringe; hair is braided back from the forehead. Front/Bangs & Parting: Description: Hair is intricately braided back from the hairline and temples; no loose fringe or bangs. Parting: Clearly defined part lines delineate the cornrows, mostly curving from the hairline towards the crown, creating an asymmetrical pattern on the visible side. Texture & Finish: Natural Texture: Not fully inferable due to braiding; roots suggest tightly coiled or curly hair (Type 3C–4A). Styled Finish: Smooth, taut cornrows on the scalp, leading to a sleek, uniform braided ponytail. Very high tension and defined structure. Hold level 5/5 (braiding provides maximum hold and structure). Volume & Density: Description: Flat against the scalp in the front and sides due to the cornrows; high volume and very high density in the extended braided ponytail. Thickness: Individual hair strands appear medium at the roots; the overall ponytail is thick and dense due to the numerous braids. Color: Base Color: Jet black, cool tone. Multi-tonal Effects: Uniform color; no highlights or variations visible.
