Les mèches queue de cheval sont généralement très longues; elles sont utilisées pour être portées pendantes ou montées en chignon. Les cheveux peuvent être fixés sur une seule branche qui se termine alors soit par un petit anneau permettant sa fixation, soit sur une base circulaire de petit diamètre (2 à 7 cm) pour obtenir une queue de cheval plus importante.
