5 Cute, Quick, and Easy Hairstyles for school

Hey guys! Today I wanted to show y’all some really cute and quick hairstyles for school. I know that most of you are going to school and want to sleep in as much as possible, so here is how to have super cute hair that takes very little time.

Before we get into the hairstyles, I just want to show you guys an awesome brush that I used for all of these hairstyles. It’s a double-sided brush, one side detangles your hair and the other side has boar bristles to calm your hair and make it shiny.

4) Make a hole in the middle of your ponytail above your elastic, making sure that the hair on either side of the hole is of equal size.

5) Pull the rest of the ponytail through the hole. It should look like two loose twist tied together.

6) Tighten your ponytail by separating it into two sections below the elastic and pulling them apart. It should look like this from behind:

2. Retro Twists

1) Put your hair in a side part like in the hairstyle above.

3. French Braided Ponytail

1) Comb your hair back.

2) Loosely French braid your hair, adding large sections to your braid.

3) Once you finish taking sections, do not continue with a regular braid. Keeping the braid, put the rest of the hair in a ponytail.

4) Taking a small section of hair, wrap it around your elastic, tuck the ends of it in the elastic, and bobby pin it in.

How to fishtail braid

Hey guys! For today’s post, I wanted to show y’all how to do a fishtail braid. I love the fishtail braid because it looks complex but it’s very simple and it looks beautiful when done. Let’s get right into it!

Step 1:

/home/wpcom/public_html/wp-content/blogs.dir/0bf/76212855/files/2014/12/img_1490.jpg

Comb your hair through to get rid of all tangles and comb it backwards. Then separate it into two sections.

Step 2:

/home/wpcom/public_html/wp-content/blogs.dir/0bf/76212855/files/2014/12/img_1491.jpg

Take a small section of hair from the outer edge of the section on the left, and cross it to the inner part of the section on the right.

Step 3:

/home/wpcom/public_html/wp-content/blogs.dir/0bf/76212855/files/2014/12/img_1492.jpg

Take a section about the same size as the other section from the outer edge of the right section, and bring it to the inner part of the left section so that the little sections cross.

Repeat steps 2 & 3 and the braid should start to look like this:

Once you get your braid to look like this, just continue where you left off. It’s ok to gradually use smaller sections as you get closer and closer to the end of the braid, just make sure to make them the same size. And also make sure to pull the sections tight so the braid won’t fall out.

The end result:

That’s all for this hairstyle! I hope you enjoyed it, and see you guys next time!
