Short, sleek styles are in this summer and there’s a style to suit all face shapes, so what are you waiting for – pledge your ponytail today!” </blockquote><br /><br /><center><iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="415" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/vDA9TwEBSXQ" width="520"></iframe></center><br /><br />If you’re considering going short and donating your ponytail to the Pantene Beautiful Lengths program, but not quite sure if the look will work for you, fear not, <b>Barney</b>, gives his reasons why short can work for every occasion. Now you can help a cancer patient in <b>Australia and New Zealand</b> deal with one of the effects of cancer treatment and rock a new look at the same time.<br /><br /><b>Here are a few of Barney’s tips to rock that short style:  </b><br /><br /><b>Work event: </b>“Sweep the front of hair back off face to create a voluminous crown, and use pins to secure hair pulled back at the sides. The elegant look works well with chin length hair blow dried to turn in slightly at the ends.”<br /><br /><b>Tip: </b>Use the Pantene <a href="http://www.pantene.com.au/hair-care-collections/beautiful-lengths.aspx">Beautiful Lengths Strengthening Collection</a> to smooth hair and help repair damage to prepare hair for this sleek look.<br /><br /><b>Date night:</b> “Go smooth and sleek with a glossy cut finishing just below your chin. Complete the look with a blunt fringe sitting just above your eyes for maximum impact.”<br /><br /><b>Tip:</b> Use Pantene <a href="http://www.pantene.com.au/hair-care-products/product/sss-Treatment.aspx?upc=34">Styling Treatment Foam</a> Smooth Straight before blow-drying for a smooth finish.<br /><br /><b>Beach break:</b> “For the ultimate in easy holiday styling, make the most of a low maintenance jaw length bob tousled by salt and sun. Opt for an eyebrow-grazing fringe for a playful edge.”<br /><br /><b>Tip:</b> Use Pantene <a href="http://www.pantene.com.au/hair-care-products/product/sc-MistT.aspx?upc=38">Styling Treatment Mist</a> Soft Curls to help keep waves soft and touchable.

Your salon will also feature in the salon locator tool enabling thousands of women who wish to donate find a participating salon in their area.<br /><br />Salon owners and hairstylists understand how important hair is to women. Healthy hair can make us feel beautiful and losing it through vital cancer treatment can be devastating. With the Pantene Beautiful Lengths program, Pantene is committed to helping women regain their confidence with real-hair wigs.<br /><br />To thank salons across Australia for their support, <b>Pantene</b> is offering a prize of an international <b>Vidal Sassoon Academy</b> training experience to one staff member from the salon that collects the most ponytails.<br /><br /><blockquote class="tr_bq"><b>Barney Martin</b>, owner of Barney Martin Hairdressing in Surry Hills, Sydney, and <b>Pantene</b> ambassador comments: </blockquote><blockquote class="tr_bq">“I’m supporting the Pantene Beautiful Lengths program by accepting ponytail donations at my salon and sending them to Pantene to turn into beautiful real-hair wigs for women undergoing cancer treatment, and you can get involved too. As salon owners, we are in a position to help make a difference. I call you on you to register your salon today and get on board with Pantene Beautiful Lengths and start collecting ponytails!”</blockquote><br />
