A messy ponytail is so much more than just looping dirty hair through a hair tie and rushing out the door. Much like the no-makeup makeup look, which can often take even longer to achieve than an obvious makeup look, a messy ponytail requires time and some skill. You’re not looking for a truly messy, “I haven’t showered in a few days and did this in five seconds” hairstyle. You’re looking for a “I did this very quickly because I am so busy but look how effortlessly chic I am anyway” hairstyle.
