Summer Beauty 2011

Retro

WHY IT WORKS Channel your inner pin-up girl like Penelope Cruz, and give the everyday ponytail a vintage twist—literally! "Cruz created fullness by twisting the length of her ponytail around to make it shorter," Francis says. "The clip-on bangs were a fun, retro-inspired addition to her signature style."
EXPERT TIP Recreating this style works best with longer hair. "Spiral hair upward as if you are pulling it into a French Twist," says Francis. The ponytail is formed from the loose, upswept ends of the twist. "Large hair pins have more holding power, so they'll work best to secure the style."
