Well that makes it easier to wash her hair in the sink I guess.
But also, hear me out, what if instead of that plastic thing she had a quick release hook, so she could use the tail (and the hook) for self defence? Hell, make the tail of braided leather and you got a cool whip for impromptu BSDM session!
Shit if your gonna do all that, might as well just hang a glock from it

What if instead of a quick release hook there was a rubber o-ring on her head hair and a buttplug-shaped object on the ponytail.
From plug-and-play ponytail to plug-and-play pony tail in one step.
i noticed that they do sell buttplug ponytails at renaissance fairs.

I don't know why it bothers me that it's "dead" hair, because effectively nothing has changed. It's like a pseudo wig that isn't trying to hide anything, which is super cool
The moment your hair cells leave the pores on the skin of your head, they die. Thud all hair is dead.
The moment your hair cells leave the pores on the skin of your head
Even before that. You pull a hair out, and if that specific hair follicle was still growing you should see a teeny-tiny bulb at the very end. That bulb can be up to a mm beneath the skin. The widest part of that bulb is where the hair cells begin dying and drying out. By the time it shrinks down to the width of the rest of the hair (and long before it emerges from the pore), all the cells in that section are dead. Only the base of the bulb has living, growing hair cells.
Wait, I thought hair was made of keratin like nails. It's made of cells?
Are you implying that your fingernails were never cells of your body? How does that work?
Well I'll have to look it up now, but I see it as a substance produced by the body that isn't made of cells itself. Like any of the other excretions and things the body makes.
Edit: apparently both your nails and hair are mostly made of keratin, but keratin isn't produced and excreted to produce the nail and hair structures like a playdough factory like I imagined. Special cells are produced that are primarily keratin and they are added to like a chain and die/harden as they are pushed out from the body.
That is absolutely fascinating. I had the same assumption.

Hairs are never "alive" in the first place. The follicle is.
That's why they used the quotes and said that nothing effectively changed.
Wireless hair
That's pretty neat
That's really cool
Bluetooth hair extensions.
Neat style, I also think its really neat how the shadow falls on her neck. The silhouette is just slightly not the same as the shape, and it looks pretty cool.
To be fair it kinda looks cool. Though it does reminds me of a door knocker.
When you decide to donate to locks-for-love but realize to late it was your lucky ponytail.
Now you can cut your hair and keep it too!
I wonder if you'd have to wash it? I guess it's no different than however people with wigs take care of them.

I'm pretty sure that's someone else's hair (the color and texture don't quite match) but I don't care. That's amazing and genius.
...
I'll allow it.
I'm going to tell myself it's something really cool like anodized titanium and not just plastic.
For when you want to have a ponytail that you can disconnect and hook your keys onto your head.
Is that fake?
It really doesn’t look like there’s enough hair length on here head to hold that.
I.e. that’s not enough hair to hold it like that
I don't see anything that screams AI, and given how ~~hideous~~ unique that top is and the consistency of the weave edges I think this is just from a fashion show.
Dior Spring 2015 Couture, if anyone is curious. I remember these ponytails vividly, my younger sister chopped her hair off trying to recreate them using her own hair and two curtain rings.
We subsequently had all our magazine subscriptions cancelled.
Please let this be true because it’s fucking hilarious!
I unfortunately have no photographic evidence, I was too busy trying to help hide the evidence before my parents got home. No idea how we were planning on explain my sister's sudden hair loss...
Believe it as much as you would a funny story on the internet.

As long as that’s her own hair, I think that is hella nifty. It says she had the personal discipline to grow her hair out, but then also wanted the option for switching back and forth between long and short hair on her own schedule, and not tied to her follicular performance.
If it’s not, it’s just as superficial and fake as any other hair extension.
And I would say this about anyone, not just women. Hell, if I could do the same with my beard in a way that actually looked decent and would not be widely ridiculed, I would seriously consider it. Because just like long hair, while any mountain man can sport a scraggly mess, a good beard takes years of discipline to grow into a well-coiffed mane.
If it’s not, it’s just as superficial and fake as any other hair extension.
I don't really see how hair extensions are any more superficial and fake than lots of other fashion choices. I mean, I get it, I think a lot of fashion is superficial and fake, but I don't see why hair extensions have any particular stigma. Done well they look nice, done poorly they look like shit. None of my business. Some people have a hard time maintaining healthy hair if they grow it long, or maybe (like OP) they just don't want to commit to having to keep it long all the time.
