ponytail

Bound, dangling hair

A ponytail is a hairstyle in which hair is gathered and fastened at the back of the head, hanging down like a horse's tail.

The style keeps hair out of the face and ranges from casual to polished depending on placement and tightness: She pulled her hair back in a quick ponytail before going for a run.
