This Super Chill Hair Trend Ruled the 2018 MTV Movie Awards Red Carpet

By Ebony Goodridge

Date June 19, 2018

The biggest hair trend for the summer was out in full force at last night’s MTV Movie Awards.

Ponytails of all shapes and sizes made an appearance on the red carpet, with plenty of Hollywood’s leading ladies putting their own personal twist on the popular look, proving just how versatile and chic a classic ponytail can be. Tiffany Haddish opted for cascading curls while Jasmine Sanders favoured a ’90s-inspired style. Alison Brie went for a sky-high wraparound pony while Olivia Munn rocked a textured, undone look.

From tight and polished to loose and unfinished, here are the low maintenance ponies giving us major hair inspo for the summer.
