The hairstyle that says I have places to be and zero time for you.
means A hairstyle where hair is gathered and bound at the back of the head, left to hang in a single length.
from Simple, literal compounding — pony + tail. The style was named because the gathered, swinging length of hair resembles the tail of a pony. The word shows up in English by the early-to-mid 1900s, first as a description of the shape before it became the standard name for the hairstyle itself.
