Back to School Hairstyles

Long and Short Back to School Hairstyles

Looking for more back to school hairstyles ideas? Here are some of my favorite back to school hairstyles for obvious reasons . . . they are quick and easy hairstyles when you'll be needing to fly out the door AND still look great at school!  For the easiest and quickest styling, leave those things that take the most time to the night... like shampooing, blow drying, and curling. Once that's taken care of, the hairstyle you choose to wear for the day will be a cinch! Pony tails, half up-dos, braids and crimps are fast and sweet if your hair is long. For shorter hair, think headbands, sparkly barrettes and a little bit-o-gel and you'll be set!

Get this boho look by parting hair down the middle. Take out a one inch section on both sides, a couple inches back from the hairline. Taking a two inch section above each ear, clip it out of the way. Brush hair into a low bun, tuck ends under and secure with bobby pins. Braid the one inch sections down and pin at nape or into the bun. Braid the two inch sections up and over the top of the head and secure with pins. Spray with a shine serum or smooth with a smoothing cream.
