8. Braided Pigtails
Braided pigtails are fun and practical. Splitting your hair into two sections makes thick hair easier to manage. Braid each side tightly and secure the ends well.
7. Bubble Ponytail
A bubble ponytail is a cute way to keep a ponytail more controlled. The elastics create little bubble sections that limit movement. Using small, strong elastics works best.
6. Twisted Ponytail
Twisting sections of hair before putting it in a ponytail adds extra grip. It looks simple but is surprisingly secure. Make sure you twist the sections firmly before gathering them.
5. Multiple Small Braids
Braiding several small sections throughout your hair before gathering it is smart. This prevents little pieces from escaping. I like to braid the sections right around my hairline first.
4. Braided Headband
Creating a braid along your hairline acts like a built-in headband. It keeps all those front pieces out of your eyes. Pin the ends of the braid behind your ears to finish it off.
3. Space Buns
Space buns are playful and super secure. Dividing your hair into two sections and creating buns keeps everything neat. Secure those buns tightly with both elastics and bobby pins.
2. Cornrows
Cornrows are a fantastic long-term, super-secure option. The hair is braided right against your scalp. They will stay put through the most intense game. Getting them done professionally usually gives the best, longest-lasting result.
1. French Braided Pigtail Buns
Okay, this is my number one for staying power! Combining French braids with buns gives you the ultimate security. French braid down each side into pigtails, then twist those pigtails into tight buns. It seriously stays put through every dive and jump you make.
