The pony tail perm works best on long thick hair.
I learned how to do this perm back in the 80's
the first time I went to beauty school.
I did this for fun one day at school cause no one ever heard about it.
I hadn't done it in years. It works best to section it off like a regular perm to stay organized.
Then you section the hair starting at the bottom doing about one inch squares using small hair bands but loosely.
When it's time to do the rods, start at the bottom.
Depending on the thickness on the hair, section the hair again doing the spiral method of wrapping. I did 2 rods per one inch section.
This does take awhile but it's fun.
That is alot of perm rods!
This mannequin has synthetic hair so I let it air dry overnight.
You can kind of get the idea of the curl.
I was just playing around with a simple hairstyle and flower.
