Minka Kelly Wore a Certain Kind of Ponytail to Fly This Weekend. Here's Why That's Genius...

I have decided Minka Kelly's pulled-to-the-side ponytail may just be the best hairstyle for flying/traveling. I'll explain why. I don't know about you, but when I'm flying, I don't really like my hair to be hanging down around my face. But I also find that pulling it up can give me a hair headache by the end of the flight. This, plus the fact that the headrests push my head forward as it is, means that a high ponytail is out of the question. This leads me to the conclusion that a low ponytail is the way to go. But what's great about pulling it to the side like Minka did here is that it looks more "styled" than "just thrown back" somehow. Cute, comfy, incredibly easy, and travel-friendly. It's an in-flight must, I say. What about you? Photos: Splash News
