Well, I bought a hooked ponytail cuff from a motorcycle site (link below and picture attached). There's a flexible hook on the inside so that any ponytail elastic could be used. I put this on like a regular ponytail holder with the cuff attached and let it fall to the side of my hands while I tied this. Then after it was tied I put the cuff on top of the ponytail but it wouldn't stay on top when I shook my head (it would stab my neck).
Maybe it's too loose or I'm just doing this all wrong and you slip the cuff hook over the tied ponytail? Any suggestions?

Interesting. In the pictures at the website it looks like it's a ring shaped thing, but yours seems to just be a half loop. Hmm. Anyway, I would try making a snug tail with a separate small elastic first, then try fitting this over it. But the elastic you use is going to have to be pretty tight to keep the metal thing from rotating and stabbing your neck.
Anyway, it's a cool idea. I like it.
That's a good idea. I'll try to tie a ponytail first.
I got this for my brother's wedding in a month but I like wearing it down. My hair is long enough that it doesn't look messy even after being in the wind-the weight of my hair brings it back to the way it looked before getting hit by wind. So I may just wear my hair down at the wedding and use this cuff for something else.

You're right-I emailed the seller and they said you hook it to the elastic tied in your hair. I would think you hook the elastic before letting go of the elastic so your hair doesn't get hooked!

Cool. Now I kind of want one. There's also a plastic gizmo that makes your ponytail look larger in diameter. I've been thinking of trying one.
