School hair styles should be quick and easy, while looking well put together and pretty. The most important thing is to keep your hair out of your face. This article will give you a few tips and ideas on how to style your hair for school.

Styling Your Hair

  1. Make a trendy ponytail. With one hand, brush or pull your hair back, trying to avoid fly-away strands. With the other hand, grab a hair tie and slip the ponytail through the elastic. Twist the elastic, forming a figure-8 and pull the hair through again. Keep twisting the elastic and pulling your hair through until the elastic is tight.
    • Consider covering the hair tie with a scrunchie, a ribbon, or a bow or ribbon in your school colors.
    • If you don't want any hair ties visible, take a strand of hair and wrap it around the base of your ponytail several times, covering the hair tie. Tuck the end into your hair tie, under your hair. Secure the hair strand using a bobby pin.
    • You can wear your ponytail low at the base of your neck, high on the top of your head, or medium high at the very back of your head. You can even wear it on the side of your head.
  2. Create a flipped ponytail. This style is also known as an upside down ponytail. Start with a ponytail. Make a hole in your hair just above the hair tie, between the back of your head and the tie. Be sure to keep equal hair on either side of the hole. Pass the ponytail through the hole, and give it a tug. You can then tie a scrunchy or a bow around the base of the ponytail. You can also add a bow hair clip above it.
  3. Look sophisticated with a simple bun. Start with a high ponytail on top of your head. Take your ponytail and twist it into a rope, then wrap it around the elastic as many times as you can. While holding the hair in place with one hand, start securing the bun with some bobby pins. Place a bobby pin in the front, back, left, and right side of the bun, then place another bobby pin between them. Finally, spritz the bun with a small amount of hairspray, and smooth down any flyaway strands with a little bit more hairspray.
    • Add a bit of detail to the bun by braiding a strand of hair and wrapping it around the bun. Secure the braid with a bobby pin.
  4. Create a messy bun. Start with a high ponytail. Twist your hair into a rope, and wrap it around the base of your ponytail, creating a bun-shape. Secure your hair by wrapping a hair tie around the base of your bun—be sure to get the hair tie over the ends of your hair. Shake your head around and pull a few pieces out until you get the messiness you want.
  5. Consider doing a half-up, half-down style. To do this, gather a small section of hair at the top of your head (about eye level and up). Pull it towards the back of your head. You can clip it in place or tie it using a smaller hair tie.
    • Consider curling or straightening your hair.
  6. Make a simple braid. Start by separating your hair into three even sections. Then, take the section of hair to the left and cross it over so that it ends up between the other two sections. Then, take the section on the right and cross that over so that it ends up between the other two sections. Repeat these steps until you have about an inch or two left of hair. Tie the braid off with a hair tie.
    • You can make one braid at the back of your head, or two braids to either side of your head. If you are making two braids, start them behind your ear.

Styling Your Hair Based on Length and Type

  1. Keep your bangs out of the way by pinning them back. For a more interesting look, consider twisting them one or twice before pinning them.
  2. Wear longer hair in braids, ponytails, or buns. You wear high ponytails, low ponytails, buns, one braid, or two braids. You can even try French braiding your hair.
    • Put your hair in a braid the night before and take it out in the morning; this will make your hair wavy. If you have a little more time on your hands, curl your hair and put it in loose-side ponytails, or curl random parts and let it be slightly messy, or put it up in a messy bun.
    • Consider leaving a bit of your bangs in a side parting and the rest of you hair in a high/side ponytail.
  3. Pin shoulder-length hair back using bobby pins. You can do this with one section, on the top of your head, or on either side of your head in two sections.
  4. Curl or straighten medium-length hair. You can't do as much with it as you can with long hair but you still have some options for making it look fantastic.
    • In pressed time put your hair into a messy bun, or just brush it and wear it down. If you got up early and want to be adventurous, then take your straightener and straighten your hair. Then, just at the ends, turn the straightener out so you will get flicks.
    • Use your curler or straightener (whatever you prefer) and curl your hair. Make the curls really tight or loose. Also, curl bits of hair and clip your fringe back.
  5. Use hair gel or hair wax to spike short hair. Apply a small amount of gel or wax to the palm of your hand and rub it between your fingers. Next, run your fingers through your hair and start fluffing it upwards, starting from the roots.
  6. If you have ethnic or naturally-kinky hair, get it cornrowed. Be sure to keep your head wrapped up with a silk scarf or a net to prevent your cornrows from getting messed up while sleeping. Wash and condition your hair before redoing the cornrows the next week.
    • Use hair gel or hair spray to tame any new growths experienced during the week.
  7. Keep short, naturally-kinky hair out of the way with a cloth headband. Pull the headband down over your head so that it is around your neck like a collar, then tug the part that's in front of your up over your face. Position it so that it is resting right at the top of your head. Gently tug the sides of the headband behind your hairs.

Adding Accessories

  1. Use bobby pins and headbands to keep your bangs out of the way. You won't be able to concentrate well in school if you keep on having to mess with your bangs. Luckily, bobby pins and headbands come in many different colors and patterns—try getting some that match your outfit or your school's colors.
  2. Keep your hair back with a headband. You can use a metal or plastic headband, or a cloth one that wraps around your entire head. Headbands work on just about any hair length.
    • For a chic, boho look, choose a flower crown or wrap a colorful scarf around your head, like a headband.
  3. Look cute and girly with a few bows. You can purchase some simple clip-on bows and put then right above a ponytail, or you can tie a ribbon around the end of a braid. Keep up the school spirit by choosing your school colors.
  4. Avoid using too many or too big accessories. Putting a massive flower on your hair for school might be a bad idea because it might not only get you into trouble, but it might also earn you a few mean laughs. Consider using a small hair accessory or two instead.

Tips

  • Keep your classes in mind. If you have gym class that day, you may want to stick with some simple braids or a ponytail, and leave the fancier styles for another day.
  • Don't use too many hair products, you'll end up looking over done or just greasy.
  • Carry a small bag around with a comb, hair spray, mirror and clips in case disaster strikes.
  • Make sure to brush your hair before doing anything so you won't have knots in your hair.
  • If you're a beginner and don't know this, an easy way to put your hair up is to flip all of your hair over, and brush through it with your fingers. Then, you make sure there are no extra strands hanging out, and gather it all into a nice-looking ponytail.
  • If you want a slicked back look, grab a comb and some hairspray. At the tip of your hairline, bring the comb down your head followed by the hairspray. Repeat this process until you feel that it is enough.
  • Instead of bobby pins you can use hair clips.
  • Make sure your hair isn't so tight it might hurt your head, this can lead to a sore scalp.
  • To get more grip using bobby pins, make sure the rigid side is facing your scalp.
