20 Fantastic French Braid Ponytails

A French braid ponytail may conjure up images of elementary school days, but the modern iterations are anything but juvenile.  When you want to wear a fuss-free updo, but grow bored easily of simple styles, a braided option is an ideal look for you. Whether you are blonde or brunette with curly or straight hair, we have a hairdo in our gallery of 20 pictures below to motivate you and guide in spicing your style up. 



The Charm of French Braid Ponytails


A French braid adds interest to a simple pony hairstyle. Since you can place your braids in different sections, vary their width, tightness and texture, it’s easy to come up with an individual style that will be all your own.


#1: Inspiring Spiraled Style


Let’s start this off with a bang shall we? There is absolutely nothing standard about this style from the braided side to the wrap around the high ponytail. It’s an updated version of Rapunzel; with an attention-grabbing look such as this we are sure that Prince Charming will take notice as well.



#2: Reverse Braid and Side Ponytail


Rocking your braid behind your ponytail instead of at the front is an interesting spin on the usual look. Because you put in all that hard work braiding, don’t cover it up with a long tail. Shift it to the side for a look that is flirty and full of life.



#3: Jumbo Side Braid


By wearing your hair with a French braid into ponytail you get the best of both worlds. The braid shows off the intricacies of your highlighted hair color, while the ponytail is perfect for those with long hair who want to show off their full natural waves.



#4: Blonde Lattice Effect


Medium hair can sometimes look limp when pulled into a high ponytail, so it is best to keep it low to maintain a full appearance. Three large and loose braids in the front give a basket-weaving effect that is creative yet chic.



#5: Messy Double Braid


If a carefree bohemian style is more your speed, look no further than a side braid with wispy flyaways for a messy touch. Instead of a normal French braid, this is playing with proportions by weaving a thin tight braid into a larger loose one. The result is a thoughtful detail that can’t be missed.



#6: Twin Braid Updo


Although many French braid ponytail styles require longer hair, that doesn’t mean that you have to skip out on them altogether. By using a weave, you can create full styles that last and look realistic like the double French braid updo in this photo.



#7: Curly Pony Updo with Bump


Curly hair looks great with ombre hair color because the spirals provide depth and dimension to the gradual fade of brown to blonde. This ponytail style is an ideal vacation look because it looks better as it gets messier, so no need to worry about humidity or frizz.



#8: Multicolored Jumbo Braid


This is perfect for those who have fond memories of playing with My Little Pony dolls and wishing they had one of those colorful clip-on ponytails. A more grown up version uses pink and blonde highlights throughout the wavy mane for a vibrant look that’s still subdued.



#9: Braid and Bun


When looking for a French braided ponytail that can work for prom or a fancy event it’s best to think outside of the box. Adding a twisted bun to the base of your long pony provides you with a look that is unexpected and memorable.



#10: Sleek and Blonde


For the aspiring artists and dancers in search of the best on stage hairstyle, we may have found the perfect braided look. This slick updo will stay put together through hours of dancing, singing and hair-flipping.



#11: Braids with Bow


True fashionistas know that the best outfits are only as good as their accessories and the same goes for hairstyles. When aiming for a sweet-looking style nothing seals the deal like a silky hair bow. It is a great look for a woman who leans towards preppy styles.



#12: Blonde Pony with Double Braid


This double French braid ponytail seems simple at first, but once you look at it long enough, you begin to notice the special yet simple details that make it so unique. From the connecting side braids to the twisted ponytail and the blonde waves, it is the perfect date night look for a beauty obsessed woman.



#13: Slick Teased Ponytail


Even though this look uses a pair of braids just like the previous style, the two are fundamentally different, which shows how versatile braided ponytails can be. If you want a sleek and rebellious hairstyle, this low updo is right up your alley.



#14: Elegant Pony for Events


Formal hairstyles don’t always have to be stiff or over the top. This high ponytail is polished, but still approachable, so it’s a nice choice for a woman who wears many hats and would attend many events in one night.



#15: Delicate Daytime Details


Casual hairstyles can be anything but sloppy or thrown together. The best thing about a French braid ponytail is that it takes little time to do and still looks pulled together with subtle yet meaningful details like a small piece wrapped around the ponytail holder.



#16: Straight Triple Threat


When you want your braids to look less romantic and more edgy, it’s best to pair them with straight hair. This sleek look combines polished strands, a wrap around ponytail and three small cornrows for a no-nonsense look.



#17: Trendy Two-Tone Braided Pony


When you know that you won’t have a lot of time to primp in the morning, but you want to keep your everyday look interesting, it’s best to experiment with different colors. The two-tone blend of brown and blonde turns a standard ponytail into something visually exciting.



#18: Side Braid for Medium Hair


Updos are perfect for weddings and this shoulder-length style is a nice option for a bride who wants to achieve a full French braid ponytail without using fake hair. By combining a jumbo braid and loose curls, you’ll get an enchanting look for your special day.



#19: Smart and Stylish


Women with short hair can rock ponytails too; the key is to focus on making the braids look special since the tail will not have that much length. By blending braids of different sizes and colors, you can design a cool and intricate look with shoulder-length strands.



#20: Braided Tiara for Black Hair


Sometimes relaxed black hair can be thin or lack length, so when creating a long updo hairstyle it might be useful to incorporate extensions for braids with volume. This is a style that will last for a couple of days and will take the guesswork out of doing your hair in the morning.



In future, when you are stumped with planning a hairstyle, consider a French braid ponytail. It is a hairdo that can work in both casual and formal settings, while being sweet or sassy depending on your desire. No matter what hair length or texture you have, there is a perfect look for you.
