11. Twisted Cat Ears
Twists offer a sleek and chic take on the cat ear hairstyle. After sectioning your hair into pigtails, twist each section tightly from root to tip. Then, coil the twisted hair upwards to form your ear shape, securing it with an elastic or pins. This style has a really clean and sophisticated appearance. It’s ideal if you’re looking for a more subtle cat ear effect. For perfect symmetry, ensure your twists are even from the start.
10. Bun Cat Ears
Who doesn’t love a good bun? Making cat ears from small buns is super fun! Start by dividing your hair into sections, usually two pigtails. Then, create two small, neat buns. Position them on your head so they stand up like ears. Secure them well with pins and elastics. This style is playful yet put-together. It works for practically any age and occasion. You can even add tiny bows or charms for extra flair.
9. Messy Bun Cat Ears
For a relaxed, effortless vibe, go for messy bun cat ears! Create two small buns, but don’t aim for perfection. Pull out a few strands to give them a deliberately tousled look. Position these slightly undone buns on your head to mimic cat ears. This style is perfect for casual outings and gives off a cool, laid-back feel. Want that messy texture? Gently tease small sections of hair before twisting them into buns.
8. Half-Up Cat Ears
This is a great option if you like wearing your hair down but want a touch of feline fun. Gather the top section of your hair, as if you’re making a half-up ponytail. From this section, create your cat ears. You can do this with twists or small puffs. This style works beautifully with various hair lengths. It lets you show off your hair while still rocking the cute ears. Blend the base of your “ears” into the rest of your hair for a seamless finish.
7. Sleek Pigtail Cat Ears
This is a more polished take on the pigtail puff. Start by creating two smooth, sleek pigtails. Then, twist the hair upwards into your ear shape. The key here is to ensure the hair is super smooth. You can use a straightening iron on the sections before twisting them. This gives you a sophisticated yet undeniably fun look. It’s a great choice for when you want to be a bit more dressed up.
6. Wavy Cat Ear Puffs
If you have naturally wavy hair or love adding some texture, wavy cat ear puffs are gorgeous! Create two pigtails, then twist and shape them into ears. The waves will add beautiful texture and volume, making your “ears” look extra fluffy and cute. This style has a softer, more romantic feel. For gentle waves, try using a curling wand on loose sections before forming your ears.
