Easy Hairstyles for School

October 18, 2019

It is the start of autumn and a new start for some. Easy hairstyles for back to school are important. For some of us, it is the start of a new academic year or it is back to the job and the daily grind after a holiday.

While it is time to get back into the same routine, it is always good to switch up your looks. After all, it is a new season. So try out some hairstyles that are trending this fall without having to spend much time or effort. With these hairstyles, they can easily be done before school, college or work in the morning. They are pretty convenient.

Here are some easy hairstyles for school.

Easy Hairstyles for Short Hair

With short hair, there are many easy styles you can do in an instant.

You can do a half up do, which is pretty simple and pretty cute. Just brush your hair, then take the top part of your hair and tie it up with a hairband. Alternatively, you can take the top part, split it into two sections, then tie each section. You can even do up each section into buns.

If your hair is short but not too short, then you can try creating the halo braid. If you can do a french braid in a short amount of time, then you can easily master this and look glamorous and work ready.

If you are a bit bored of straight, short hair, then add definition to your hair by creating curls. You can do this the night before by adding twisted and flexible curling rods into your hair. Take them out in the morning. Alternatively, create beach waves to give your hair that summer touch.

If you like adding decorative pieces to your hair, then you should add a hairband or hair clips. Opt for hairbands or hair clips with patterns, colour and glittery designs to make your hair stand out.

Cute Hairstyles

You can create cute hairstyles for school in a short amount of time from the comfort of your own home.

Be like Ariana Grande and create a slicked back, high ponytail. After washing your hair, apply a dollop of serum and comb it through the hair. Then, tie your hair at the top of your head and secure with a hairband.

Another simple but cute hairstyle is the French plait. Apply hair oil, split your hair into two parts, then plait separate braids and you are good to go!

Also try out the top bun, which is cute but formal. Brush through your hair and apply your favourite oil or serum. Then, tie your hair up at the crown of the head, wrapping it around to create the bun. Make sure to secure it with hair pins. Alternatively, create the braided bun, or create the half up, half down braided bun.

Easy Hairstyles With Braids

If you love braids, then here are braided hairstyles you can do in five minutes so that you can be out the door in an instant.

Create the side braid by brushing your hair and pushing it to the side. Then plait the fishtail braid and voila!

If you have box braids then you can do a half up style. Create a side part on each side, then braid the two sections together at the top of your head. Also, with box braids you can create a braided bun, a braided up do or a braided ponytail. Plus you can add accessorize to make your braids stand out.

Easy Hairstyles for Long Hair

Long hair can be a bit time consuming to manage, but here are some easy hairstyles that you can do in no time at all. So, jazz up your locks for school with these styles.

You can try a hairstyle that will let your hair flow with a bit of definition, such as a half bun, half down hairstyle. Section a top part of your hair, tie it the wrap around and secure with hairpins to create the top bun. Then comb through the rest of the hair. For extra bounce, add some curls in the half down section of your hair.

To decorate your long hair, add ribbons or a bow.

A very simple but cool way to style your long hair is to flip it over and comb backwards or push it all to the side. Apply serum or hair oil beforehand, flip over or push to one side and then you are done.

Easy Hairstyles for Medium Hair

For easy hairstyles for your medium hair, try some of the tips we have mentioned before. From curls or beach waves, to hair accessories, to plaits, to up dos. You can even opt in for a lob – a.k.a, a long bob – which is super easy to comb through and maintain for school.
