Discover the latest hair ideas to get you through the school year looking fab!
Heading back to school after a long summer break is always exciting. But before you’re swept by the whirlwind of tasks and school work, pick the right hairstyle to match your outfit and mood. From classic low buns on those lazy hair days to flattering half updos that spice up everyday hair glam – here is your comprehensive guide for A+ hairstyles to rock at school this year.
Low bun is by far the most universal hairdo – it can be formal or more casual, fit for any occasion. So, if you’ve been searching for the ultimate back-to-school look, this tutorial is for you.
Start out by gathering your hair into a low ponytail and creating a small loop out of it, just like in the video. Place your hand inside the hair tie and twist it one time. Then, flip the hair over the mini bun and wrap the elastic over it. Tuck in the tail end and enjoy your elegant ‘do!
There are some days when you need your hair to look cute and comfy at the same time. Wearing your hair half up will give you this feel. To recreate the look, section off the top of your hair and put it into a half ponytail first.
Leave the front tendrils loose for an airy look. Add a mini bun with another elastic and topsy tail it. Apply your favorite hairspray to tame flyaways and slay the day!
To all long-haired girlies out there – here is your sign to stop sporting boring ponytails every time you want to wear your hair up! Instead, create two half up pigtails and braid them nicely.
After that, add some mini braids for a more textured look. If you feel extra creative, switch between classic braids and bubble braids for more fun. The result will definitely please you.
Naturally curly hair can also be styled beautifully for school. And what could be a better way to show off your tight ringlets than pulling off two fluffy space buns? Start by creating a middle part and section off the front of your hair.
Proceed with two high pigtails while adding another elastic to each pony. Tighten that hair tie to give your pigtails the shape of space buns. Comb your front section to the side and get ready to garner compliments.
Looking for ways to upgrade your short bob cut? How about adding a braided headband to keep your hair out of your face? Just braid your front sections and secure them with a bobby pin behind your ears. This style is also a perfect option if you need to hide grown-out bangs.
