Your Guide to Back to School Confidence
Okay, let’s get into the good stuff! I’ve put together a list of 19 back to school hairstyle ideas. These looks are picked because they’re simple, stylish, and can really help you feel confident. We’re starting with number 19 and counting down to my absolute favorite look for that first day.
19. The Effortless High Ponytail
Ah, the high ponytail. It’s a classic for a reason! Just gather all your hair up high on the back of your head and secure it. It looks so clean and sporty. It’s perfect if you want a focused look or if you have gym class. To keep it in place all day, use a really strong elastic. Or, add a cute scrunchie for a pop of color and personality!
18. Simple Side Braid
A simple side braid is so pretty and easy. Just sweep your hair to one side and do a basic three-strand braid. It has a really romantic and casual vibe. This style works well with softer looks and is great for keeping your hair out of your face while you’re studying or chatting. Secure the end with a clear elastic, or use a small, decorative clip.
17. Half-Up Half-Down with a Twist
This is a cute way to add detail. Take two small sections of hair from the front near your temples. Twist each section backwards or create tiny braids. Then, bring them together at the back of your head and secure them. It keeps hair tidy while adding a sweet touch. It works on most hair types. Use bobby pins that match your hair color to hide them.
