12. The Bubble Ponytail
Want something a little more fun? The bubble ponytail is your friend! Start with a regular ponytail. Then, add elastic bands down the length. Gently pull each section to create a “bubble.” It keeps your hair contained and looks super cute. Try backcombing slightly in each section before bubbling for more volume.
11. The Braided Headband
This style is great for keeping face-framing layers back. Take a section of hair near your temple. Braid it back towards the crown. Pin it in place like a headband. It’s a simple trick that makes a big difference. Use bobby pins that match your hair color for a seamless look.
10. The High Ponytail with a Twist
A high ponytail is a workout staple. Add a twist by taking a small section of hair from the ponytail. Wrap it around the base. Secure it with a pin. It gives a basic pony a touch of elegance. A little texturizing spray can give your ponytail extra body.
9. The Double French Braids
For high-intensity workouts, two French braids are fantastic. They keep all your hair securely in place. Divide your hair down the middle. Braid each side tightly from the hairline back. This style is super durable. Make sure to braid close to your scalp to keep it neat.
8. The Messy Top Knot
Ah, the messy top knot. The ultimate casual workout look. Flip your head over. Gather your hair at the top of your head. Twist and wrap it into a bun. Don’t worry about it being perfect! Secure with a hair tie. Pull out a few pieces around your face for that “messy” vibe.
7. The Half-Up Top Knot
Can’t decide between having your hair up or down? Go for the half-up top knot! Section off the top half of your hair. Create a messy bun with that section. Leave the rest of your hair down. It’s a great balance of style and function. Secure the lower section with a clear elastic if needed.
