On second thought, since "ponytail" is used to describe the way hair is
shaped, it should belong to the "symbols and shapes" class, which has
"-jum" for a classifier. This would also apply to other hairstyles,
such as "crewcut", "bouffant", etc.
How about the English word "bangs"? I think I'd go with "-tev".
Classifier "jum" was the one I tended toward. The whole question of styles of different kinds was tricky.
