Leave the hair styling drama behind with these easy hairstyles!
Fringe locks are great on red-carpet looks, but they’re the worst kind of commitment in loose styles. These tendrils follow you around all day, demanding attention you didn’t agree to give.
Luckily, there’s a way to have your hair down and keep your face clear at the same time. We’ve found the top 5 hairstyles to level up your styling game when you want flowing locks that actually stay put. Check them out!
This is your secret weapon for instant polish without any actual accessories. Here’s how. Part your hair down the middle and section off the front pieces on both sides. Now, take a section right above where you want to pull your hair back and lift it up and out of the way.
Pin the front section back with bobby pins, then drop that lifted section over it to hide the pins completely. Repeat on the other side, and you’re done! The faux headband keeps everything secure while adding a put-together vibe that looks way more complicated than it actually is.
Texture lovers, this one’s for you! Take your front tendrils and braid them on both sides. Then, grab a small section of hair right behind each braid and create a topsy tail by flipping the section through itself to make a little loop.
Pull your braid through that loop, and boom, you’ve got a braided style that’s anchored in place. Do the same thing on the other side. This technique keeps your braids from sliding forward throughout the day, and the mix of textures gives you that cool, lived-in look.
When you need results in under a minute flat, try this half-updo hack. Section off the top layer of your hair and clip it up temporarily. Take those annoying front tendrils and tie them into a half ponytail at the back of your head.
Now drop that top section over the ponytail to hide the elastic. That’s it! No more wisps attacking your face while you’re trying to work, eat, put your favorite lip gloss on, or just exist.
Got curtain bangs that won’t quit? This style turns them into your trademark! Section off your curtain bangs and combine them with some hair right above them to create two small half ponytails.
Topsy tail both of them for added texture and dimension. This look is specifically designed to hide grown-out bangs or just give them a day off when you don’t feel like styling them at all.
Here’s the classic look with a twist that actually stays put. Start by twisting your front pieces away from your face on both sides. Next, attach each twisted section to the side of your head using small French combs.
These little combs grip way better than regular bobby pins. Once both sides are secured, gently tug on the twisted sections to fluff them up a bit. This gives you that relaxed, romantic vibe instead of looking too tight or severe.
As you can see, each of these styles takes just a few minutes but makes a huge difference in how comfortable you feel throughout the day. No more constant tucking or fighting with the same stubborn strands, just good hair that behaves.
