21. Two French Braids
Braiding your hair into two French braids gives a balanced feel. It can also help prevent headaches sometimes caused by pulling all your hair into one spot. Braid them all the way down and secure the ends well.
20. Two Dutch Braids
These are like boxer braids and are super visible and secure. They keep hair locked down on both sides of your head. Start your braids close to your hairline for maximum control from the get-go.
19. Single French Braid
A single French braid down your back is a timeless, secure option. It keeps all your hair off your back and shoulders. Practice your braiding technique to get a smooth, sleek finish.
18. Single Dutch Braid
This braid sits on top of your hair, making it stand out. It’s effective at keeping your hair contained and looks great too. Using a mirror can really help guide your hands while you’re braiding behind you.
17. Bubble Ponytail
This trendy style looks fun and keeps your ponytail secure. You create sections down the ponytail with small elastics, making ‘bubbles’. Use small elastics spaced evenly for a cool effect.
16. Braided Bun
Combine a braid (or a couple of braids) with a bun for extra security. It adds a nice detail while keeping your hair totally contained. Braid sections of your hair first before twisting them into your bun.
15. Twisted Ponytail
A simple twist adds a bit more security than just a regular ponytail. You twist sections of hair before gathering them. Twist the sections tightly before securing them with your hair tie.
14. Half-Up Half-Down with Braid
If you like some hair down but need the front secure, this is a good choice. Braid the top section to keep it controlled. Make sure the braided section is secured firmly so it doesn’t loosen during play.
13. Boxer Braids
These are two tight Dutch braids that are known for staying put. They hug your scalp and offer incredible durability during sports. Braid them as close to your scalp as possible for the best hold.
