Men’s ponytail shaved sides, or this bald ponytail is perfect for men who are slowly losing hair. If you are balding, you have a receding hairline, or you feel like your hair is a lot thinner than it used to be – you will enjoy this hairdo. If you are not into long ponytail styles & your hair is naturally short – you should go for similar haircuts.

What Is The Difference Between Ponytails And Pigtails?

Men’s ponytail is a hairstyle that is tied only at the back and can be tied either high or low.

Pigtails are tied on both sides (above your right ear and above your left ear).

Pigtails are a typical go-to for women, while men prefer a ponytail.

On That Note

As you can see, there are a lot of man ponytail hairstyles that you can choose from. Ponytail hairstyles are easy to style and achieve & they are perfect for men who prefer low-maintenance hairstyles. Also, ponytail hairstyles can be your go-to if you are having a bad hair day, or if you are trying to cover up the fact that your hair is messy, or super oily. Ready to rock your pony?
