The perfect ponytail (Inspo: Resident Evil 2 remake, Eternal Darkness: Sanity’s Requiem)
Though many female horror protagonists opt for a sprightly, above-the-shoulders bob (discourages poltergeists from hair-pulling, I presume), I’m a fan of the relaxed, but polished ponytail Claire Redfield wears in the Resident Evil 2 remake and of Alexandra Roivas’ updo in Eternal Darkness: Sanity’s Requiem.
While gathering your hair into a ponytail with a wide-tooth comb, slide out two slices of your hair so that your face is framed. Batiste dry shampoo is helpful in building volume and shape for this, and you use your favorite lightweight lotion, like Nivea Creme, or even dryer sheets to flatten flyaways without any hair gel gooeyness.
