Low ponytail
For long, straight hair, slick back your tresses with hair cream or pomade and secure your ponytail low on the back of your neck. For a more casual version of the low ponytail, you can wear it a little looser and toward one side.

Styling tips for windy weather
Deep conditioner – If your hair is subjected to wind and other harsh elements, use a deep conditioner once a week to hydrate, nourish and revive your hair.
A good night’s sleep – Sleep on a silk pillowcase to reduce frizziness, which is exacerbated by windy weather.
On-the-go style – Add some volume to your hair by pulling it into a high ponytail and spritzing it with styling spray. When you arrive to your destination, remove the ponytail and finger comb your hair into shape.
