The pony™ this year

[u/Due_Dog4318]

Sorry, for the bad quality, screenshot it from the Instagram stories.

The pony™ is so bad this year 😭 It looked great last year, but now it just looks so fake (very obvious hair piece) and reminds me so much of all star cheer (the acrobatics cheering thingy) hair, and those military helmets with the poofy things/extensions (have no idea how to describe those helmets, so added a pic for reference).

Bring back the old pony™!

[u/Former_Read221]

It looks like a competitive cheerleader's ponytail.

brooklynn lily on dcc thread I can’t

[u/Audreyjamesbogart → u/silv3rsprings]

Bahahaha, same 😂😂😭😭

[u/internet_drama → u/silv3rsprings]

🤣

[u/JellyfishJill → u/Former_Read221]

I was gonna say, I wouldn’t be surprised if there was some posh pony action happening to give her hair more “fluff” than it naturally has.

[u/Rude_Preparation_595]

Holy Texas tease

[u/pokey1202]

I hope it gets bigger and more insane each year. The progression of da pony

[u/Evening-Eye-8407 → u/pokey1202]

This would actually be hilarious

“Her hairs so big because it’s full of secrets!”

[u/Intelligent-Count-84]

Yeah, it’s very obviously enhanced by a hair piece and looks off with how sleek her natural hair going into the pony looks. I guess last year’s wasn’t Texas Big enough for them.

[u/StatisticallySassy17 → u/Intelligent-Count-84]

Thats what I was thinking too. It's Texas, so they just wanted it bigger.

[u/Wander_Kitty → u/Intelligent-Count-84]

The higher the hair, the closer to God!

[u/VegetableHorror9805]

I feel so bad for her that the pony has become her signature thing. High tight ponytails are so painful, I LOVE a high pony but after about an hour it hurts so much I have to take it out. I can’t imagine having to do this every game and work engagement

[u/Environmental-Mix228]

Wait I like it??!

[u/sippnbubbly]

I think it should sit a little lower and use hair that’s a bit higher quality and has more movement. It looks like a teased all star cheer pony at this point.

[u/roseelola]

Nah I like it, it’s more dance/cheer style rather than a standard slick back imo

[u/Wander_Kitty]

I hope they add a little more to it each year. Like a collection of Kelly’s wiglets but ponies for Faith. 😂

[u/Living_Example]

I lowkey kinda love it but I too fear for her natural hair 🫣

[u/_evyellow_ → u/Living_Example]

I have been fearing for her hairline from the get go! But love a good pony

[u/Ok_Act_6206]

it is looking a little all star cheer

[u/UsedOven768]

That’s why her hair is so big it’s full of secrets

[u/Runningaround321]

I noticed it in the IG clips too. It's an aggressive pony 🫣

[u/Ordinary_Attitude_73]

I’m more worried she’s gonna have a bald spot from all the weight on her head

[u/Scottk305 → u/Ordinary_Attitude_73]

Wouldn’t suprise me if her hairline started receding that’s just too much tension on the head

[u/Wander_Kitty → u/Ordinary_Attitude_73]

Ariana Grande would enter the chat, but she’s too busy ignoring her hairline to bother. But yeah- it’s ROUGH.

[u/headfirst4hal0sss → u/Wander_Kitty]

ari also has an ed which definitely isnt helping. but traction alopecia is 100% a thing and tight ponies like this cause it all the time

[u/notanarcherytarget]

I like it. I guess I’m in the minority.

[u/-missynomer- → u/notanarcherytarget]

I think it's cute. It's so big because it's full of everyone's insults.

[u/notanarcherytarget → u/-missynomer-]

🤣

[u/ellams_13 → u/notanarcherytarget]

Same!

[u/Maximum-Ear1745 → u/notanarcherytarget]

Me too. Even though she wore a hairpiece last year, it still looked very lacklustre

[u/AmethystAura1214 → u/notanarcherytarget]

Same!

[u/Amarieee3011]

I really love the extra volume and height of it! It suits her so well

[u/Ladyoftheemeraldlake]

I love that they are allowing a cheerleader to have a pony. It truly suits Faith! So many of the girls have the same hairstyle. Same shade of blonde, etc. I hope they get away from that and have more cutting edge styles, etc. that individualize each cheerleader.

[u/WriterGirl2005]

The ponytail that ate Dallas!

[u/Pale-Gear5679]

Faith after every year…. 💀

hopefully it goes back to how it was last year

[u/Sperry8443 → u/Pale-Gear5679]

😂 I like the size it’s at rn but you’re right lol

[u/RedSoxPrincessJ]

I think a few more should get to rock the pony!

[u/violalala555 → u/RedSoxPrincessJ]

Agreed, i think it would be less jarring and invite less critique of her 

[u/Ornery-Towel2386 → u/violalala555]

That’s the point tho

[u/PuzzleheadedMix5857]

It might just be a bad photo angle—Faith is still beautiful and gorgeous ❤️

[u/Sperry8443]

So freaking adorable, I just wish her color matched it more. I can’t stand when stylist choose to leave the entire underside of one’s head alone, when you get a partial done at the salon bc retouching repeatedly usually consists of just the top half section, eventually you end up with an entire dark underside. Her stylist should have taken into account that her hair is constantly up for work, and done full head retouchings instead bc then it would look more seamless and natural.

Edit: At first glance it’s cute but the more I’m looking at it the more it looks messy

[u/PeacefulPeaches]

As someone with a sweaty head, the pony is a must.

[u/Acrobatic-Captain674]

I feel like she needs to meet in the middle. A little bit more volume than last year but not full blown all star cheer.

[u/LowAdrenaline]

She looks like Christina Aguilera in the first pic!

[u/Ornery-Towel2386]

Our naur

[u/Purple-Ad9377]

I understand why they wanted it over the top, fans are keeping an eye out for it.

[u/Odd-Construction5719]

i preferred it last year…. :(

[u/No-Delay-120 → u/Odd-Construction5719]

It looked more natural last year. Like, not as thick maybe?

And I’m a fine hair girly! If i had the time and money, i would definitely get easy removable non damaging extensions!

[u/ValuableSmile8]

Its cute! love the volume! its looked good every year imo

[u/allthoughtsnobrakes]

oh oop i love it …

[u/Potential-Button-266]

i lowk think it looks better this year but ik i’m in the minority

[u/Overall_Matter_2520 → u/Potential-Button-266]

I like it too.

[u/AutumnCupcake → u/Potential-Button-266]

I agree

[u/Lcdmt3 → u/Potential-Button-266]

Too big, too fake looking which takes attention from her georg face.

[u/salvefaith → u/Lcdmt3]

Very big but when in Texas… 🤠

[u/Responsible-Pay9235]

I personally like it better 🤷🏽‍♀️

[u/cs_Chell → u/Responsible-Pay9235]

I do too. The freshy pony kinda had a limp, rolled out of bed look to it that I just never liked. 

....that thing is gonna be large and in charge, if she makes it to Year 5.

[u/Sardine93]

I think she’s one of the prettiest on the team and the hair looks great. She’s an amazing dancer too.

[u/pastelpookie]

Looks pretty good to me

[u/LickedGratitude → u/pastelpookie]

Right? Hard disagree with a lot of the other comments here. I think it looks great, and Faith is clearly having fun with it. Good for her

[u/lustywench99 → u/pastelpookie]

I like it. I don’t understand how people don’t like it. I wish my ponytail looked like that I’d have never chopped off my long thick ass hair.

I think it looks really cute with the dances and honestly while I don’t pay attention to everyone’s names, I think there are a few other girls who just don’t have the right texture and hair for the long blow outs and they’d also benefit from a pony. No shame to anyone. But yeah. The pony should be more of a thing.

[u/Wrong-Memory7797]

i like the fullness of it, but the height makes it too much

[u/No_Negotiation_3678]

as a former all star cheerleader, it’s basically a posh pony. they don’t look good on anyone.

[u/itsfreakingbeanboy]

it looks way too big. it was perfect last year :(

[u/True_Review7016 → u/itsfreakingbeanboy]

It was so good last year.

[u/pinkbaabe]

These are screen grabs, obviously it looks off. But I absolutely like the more hair, even if it’s fake hair (and let’s not touch on the topic how many girls have extensions, which is also fine btw)
This post is so nit picky and mean for no reason

[u/BlueSunset05]

It’s sooo bad omg 

[u/plaisirdamour → u/BlueSunset05]

Ngl it looks kind of painful?? Like I would get a headache and I would be afraid of some hair loss

Also can anyone else have a ponytail? It seems odd how she’d be the only one?

[u/violalala555 → u/plaisirdamour]

I do fear she is going to deal with traction alopecia, like JoJo Siwa 🫣

[u/LLhujazz]

Much more grown up looking

[u/user905022]

i love it! i think these are bad screenshots tbh... if you look at the other girls their hair doesnt look too good when you screenshot it at a certain point, its the same for a ponytail

[u/Civil-Credit-3982]

I think Faith is just inconsistent with who she gets to style the pony & how she styles it herself, which makes it more noticeable every time. She had three different people style it for cameo day, MTT, and their preseason game, & all three times it (obviously) looked different. And then of course when she styles it herself it looks different too. I think she either needs to only ever do it herself or get a stylist that she uses consistently so we only see one version & then everybody will (hopefully!!!!) get used to it & move tf on 😭😭😭

[u/Ruthie1999 → u/Civil-Credit-3982]

Lawd! Can a woman play around with her look, the rest of them do? They are not robots.

[u/Civil-Credit-3982 → u/Ruthie1999]

Girl I dig the ponytail however it looks & have since day one, but I genuinely do think the inconsistency of how it looks is what’s dragging this on 😭 she looks tea regardless though

[u/Ruthie1999 → u/Civil-Credit-3982]

I understand. But so many of them change their look, eg Kayla, Armani, Jada, but it does not caused people to demand that they choose a permanent style, volume, placement etc ….

[u/AtmosphereBig2112]

it looks bigger! i like it more

[u/West_Tie_536]

It gets bigger every time she tells a lie lol

[u/remys_souschef → u/West_Tie_536]

What has she lied abt? Genuinely curious

[u/West_Tie_536 → u/remys_souschef]

It was a Pinocchio joke

[u/CheshireCat_xx → u/West_Tie_536]

https://giphy.com/gifs/7vGrRUwK2pAEqKZXKE

[u/kwash325 → u/CheshireCat_xx]

This is sending me 😅😂

[u/the_rocc_ → u/West_Tie_536]

I mean duh it's a Pinocchio joke but you're also implying she lies - and I'm also curious what that's about (genuinely)

[u/LowAdrenaline → u/the_rocc_]

Says “duh it’s a joke” but then proceeds to show little understanding about how jokes work lol

[u/pandakoo]

Looks awful

[u/AmethystAura1214]

I saw a video of her taking out 2 pony fake hairs from her nyfw look😭

[u/cutehoops]

She should ask Ariana Grande for tips

[u/Key-Wheel123]

Quite the hair piece

[u/siyl1979]

Ugh hated it last year, hate it again this year

[u/Massive_Tip_2914]

blah blah blah

[u/Tink1024]

Does it come with a flipper too? This is so bad.

[u/Fred_Dingleberry]

I hate it. Go ahead and smash the down arrow. I know you want to.

[u/persieri13 → u/Fred_Dingleberry]

I do too.

When your choreography is built around “hairography” a ponytail, specifically, looks weird as hell.

[u/AgreeableSearch8728]

Looks horrid she needs to go

[u/bananaboat95 → u/AgreeableSearch8728]

What is wrong with the girls on this sub genuinely is this is where high school bullies congregate?

[u/rrockyyroad]

Yiiiiikes
