3. Two Dutch Braids with Buns
Combine the security of two Dutch braids with the containment of buns at the ends. This gives you ultimate control over your hair. Secure the ends of your braids well before you shape them into buns.
2. Waterfall Braid Ponytail
This braid goes across the top of your head, with strands falling down, then gathers into a ponytail. It’s visually interesting and keeps the top layers secure. Let the strands fall evenly for that pretty waterfall effect.
1. The Secure Braided Updo
This is my top pick for volleyball! It involves braiding sections of hair and pinning them up into a secure, intricate updo. It uses a combination of braids and lots of bobby pins to keep every single hair in place, no matter how hard you play. It keeps hair completely off your face and neck, which is crucial in a fast game. I always use a strong hold hairspray to finish and even practice diving in it before a real game!
Frequently Asked Questions
I get a lot of questions about keeping hair secure during sports. Here are some common ones I hear from athletes.
How do I keep my hairstyle secure during a volleyball game?
Using strong, non-slip hair ties is a must. Don’t be afraid to use plenty of bobby pins to secure any loose bits. A spritz of strong hold hairspray can also make a big difference in keeping everything in place.
What hairstyles are best for long hair in volleyball?
For long hair, braids are your best friend – think French, Dutch, or boxer braids. Secure high or low ponytails work well too. Buns, especially braided buns, are also great for keeping long hair totally contained.
How can I prevent hair damage from wearing tight hairstyles for sports?
Try using fabric hair ties instead of rubber ones to reduce breakage. Avoid braiding your hair too tightly every single day. Also, remember to give your hair a break from tight styles when you’re not playing.
