Ponytail

This hairstyle is a textbook example of the Romantic Side Braid, eschewing complex techniques and returning to the purest, most gentle aesthetics. The core of the style lies in the combination of a center part design and side styling. The center part is executed naturally, without harsh lines, and both sides intentionally retain ample face-framing layers. These naturally cascading strands feature a subtle inward-curving arc, beautifully softening the cheekbones and jawline to create an endearing, delicate ambiance. The braided section employs the classic three-strand braid technique. The key lies in controlling the braiding tension; the stylist utilized loose tension, avoiding a tightly woven braid, thus allowing it to appear voluminous and full and drape naturally over one shoulder. The hair color chosen is a highly textured cool ash brown, a low-saturation shade that flatters the skin tone and makes the hair appear to have a smooth, soft texture. The overall look exudes an effortless chic, making it the ultimate representation of a fresh, girl-next-door style.
