Epic Seafarer Looks From History to Modern Day

5: Side-Swept Braids

A side-swept braid adds a feminine touch to your pirate look while keeping your hair secure during adventures. Start by gathering your hair to one side of your head.

Create a loose braid starting near your ear, letting some strands fall naturally around your face. You can add a bandana or scarf for extra pirate flair.

6: Half-Up Top Knot

Start by gathering the top section of your hair and securing it with a hair tie. Create a messy bun or knot with the gathered hair.

Leave the rest of your hair loose and flowing for that perfect pirate mix of wild and controlled. This style keeps hair out of your face during sea adventures.

7: Classic Pirate Ponytail

Secure your hair into a medium-high or low ponytail with a hair tie. This style works great for any hair length or texture.

Add a pirate touch by wrapping a small piece of hair around the hair tie. Pin it underneath with a bobby pin to hide the elastic.

8: Fishtail Braid

The fishtail braid adds a perfect seafaring touch to your pirate look.

Split your hair into two sections and weave small pieces from the outer edges inward to create this eye-catching style.

You can wear your fishtail braid loose and messy for a weathered sailor vibe, or keep it neat and tidy like a proper ship’s captain.

9: Bandana with Braid Accents

Wrap a colorful bandana around your head and add small braids near your temples. These thin braids peek out from under the bandana and create a playful pirate style.

Your side braids can be decorated with small beads or metal cuffs for extra flair.

10: Pirate Hat with Tousled Hair

A classic pirate hat paired with messy, tousled hair creates an authentic seafaring look. The natural waves and windswept texture match perfectly with your tricorn hat.

You can achieve this style by using sea salt spray and scrunching your hair to create that beachy, unruly effect. Add your hat at an angle for extra flair.
