12. Braid Ponytail with Weave

Our next idea is a very high ponytail that features a trendy but subtle pattern and braid cuffs. We love the small pattern that has been designed at the back because it is stylish but is not too over the top. It is perfect for someone who wants a pattern without being too bold. You can recreate a similar style or choose the ponytail without the pattern or braid cuffs.
