We’ll cover everything from effortless braids to playful buns. Get ready to find your new go-to look for every match!

13. The Classic Pony with a Twist

The ponytail is a timeless choice for a reason. It’s simple and keeps hair out of your face. But we can elevate it for game day! Start with a sleek, high ponytail. Then, wrap a strand of hair around the elastic. This gives it a polished, intentional look. I love adding a braid along the hairline before securing the ponytail. It’s a small detail that adds so much flair. This style works for everyone, no matter your age.

Styling Tip: Add a braid along the hairline before securing the ponytail for extra flair.

12. Braided Headband

Want a chic way to keep hair off your face? Try a braided headband. You can create this by taking a section of hair from one side. Braid it all the way down. Then, sweep it across your head like a headband. Pin it securely on the other side. It looks so sophisticated! This works great for various hair lengths. Make sure to secure it firmly with bobby pins. You don’t want it slipping during the game.
