One of the best things to look forward to about going back to school is showing off your fresh new hairstyle to your friends and classmates. After that first week though, it can be hard to decide how to style your hair each morning – especially on those days when you’re running short on time. Luckily for you, we have plenty of hair style recommendations that look like you just stepped out of the salon chair. From slicked-back locks to 90s-inspired braids, these back-to-school hairstyles deserve straight A’s.
Messy Space Buns
We’ve been championing space buns for a number of months now. This TikTok-inspired hairstyle is a quick and simple option for those wanting to channel the best of 90s fashion. Not only are they incredibly easy to pull off, but you can also tease your hair before pulling your buns into place for a more “messy” or lived-in look.
Mini Braids
Not sure what to do with your hair in between wash days? Mini braids are the perfect solution for second-day (or even third-day) hair. Start with small, face-framing braids and then add a couple more small braids evenly spaced on both sides of your head. For a truly blended look, you can also braid only the top half of your strands, leaving the rest to flow naturally.
Slicked Back
The latest trend circulating on TikTok is the “clean girl aesthetic.” On top of light and minimalist makeup, this ‘I just hopped out of the shower look’ is also achieved by pulling your hair back into either a sleek ponytail or bun with no hair falling out of place. To add even more of a 90s flare, you can try pulling your hair back with a claw clip or scrunchy.
Pull Through Braids
We seem to have braids on the brain! Not only do they keep your hair out of your face during the busy school day, but they also look incredibly chic and polished. While these braids might look tricky to do yourself, they’re technically not actually braids at all. This style is achieved by creating and pulling through several layering ponytails. It might take some practice to get used to, but once you do, this style is sure to become one of your favourites.
Pigtails
Hear us out, pigtails can be more fashionable than you think. Whether you wear them high or low, braided or loose, straight or wavy, pigtails can add a fun playfulness to your look. This is also a great hairstyle for framing your beautiful face, especially for those who part their hair down the middle.
