14. Half-Up Ponytail
If you like some hair down, this keeps the top section secure. It’s good for players who don’t mind a little hair around their face. Use a strong elastic for the half-up part.
13. Two Braids
Two simple braids are a great way to keep all your hair contained. They help distribute the hair’s weight evenly. Start braiding close to your scalp for a good hold.
12. French Braids
French braids are braided close to the scalp, which makes them super secure. They really help prevent little strands from coming loose. Try to keep your sections even as you braid.
11. Dutch Braids
Dutch braids are like French braids, but the braid pops out more. This gives you a more visible braid pattern. Remember to braid under instead of over for this look.
10. Boxer Braids
Boxer braids are just two Dutch braids. They are really popular for sports because they are so secure. Make sure your braids are tight and close to your head.
9. Braided Headband
Braid a section of hair along your hairline to create a braided headband. This is perfect for keeping those front pieces out of your eyes. Pin the braid securely behind your ear.
8. Two Buns
Two buns are excellent for getting all your hair off your neck and shoulders. You can do them high or low. Twist your hair tightly before you coil it into a bun.
7. High Bun
A high bun is a classic, secure updo. It keeps all your hair completely out of the way. Use plenty of bobby pins to tuck away any loose ends.
6. Low Bun
The low bun is a more relaxed choice. It can be easier to do quickly when you’re in a rush. Secure it well with a strong hair tie and some bobby pins.
5. Messy Bun
A messy bun is quick and looks effortless. Believe it or not, it can be quite secure if you do it right. Don’t worry about making it perfect; a little messy is fine!
