It’s that time of the year again – the beginning of the school year! Whether you’re in the comfort of your house during Virtual Academy, heading to in-school learning, or home school, here are 3 easy hairstyles you can do yourself during the back to school season!
Double Braided Bun for Back to School
What I like about this Braided Bun hairstyle is that the buns keep your hair out of your face, which really makes them a perfect hairstyle for school. You can even keep some of the hair accessories for styling your DIY Braided Bun Hairstyle at your desk or in your locker at school. That way you can easily make a perfect hairstyle when right before your first zoom class or for P.E. No need to wake up early just to fix your hair. This hairstyle is very easy and very fashionable at the same time, so get into your hairstyling spirit and let’s get started!
Items Needed: Brush, rat-tail comb, spray bottle, 2 ponytail holders, 2 small hair elastics, 8-10 small bobby pins, hairspray {if desired}.
Time Requirement: 3-5 minutes
Skill Level: Easy

French Twist into Side Bun
This hairstyles is super easy, a hairdo for beginners, and it literally takes me only one minute to do in the mornings. I am only 12, and have been wearing this on myself for the past year. You can create it with either wet or dry hair, too. I began with a French Twist, the bumpy version, and then finished with a simple side braid. My friends know my for this hairstyle, and it holds up well for sports, too!
Items Needed: Brush, rat-tail comb, spray bottle, 1 small hair elastics, hairspray {if desired}.
Time Requirement: 1-2 minutes

No-Heat Plopping Curls
These are called Plopping Curls {or Plunking Curls}, obviously because you plop your hair into a t-shirt, and then tie them up. I use a little product to help define the curls as they dry, so be sure to watch the video to get the full process. What I love about no-heat curl tutorials is that you are using absolutely zero heat in creating them. For this tutorial, it is a t-shirt creating the curls. Be sure to start with your hair slightly more than damp, not “dripping” wet. If the hair is too wet, your curls will not turn out. As a reference point, be sure to notice how wet my hair is when I begin the plopping.
Items Needed: Damp hair, curl defining mousse, 1 t-shirt, dry shampoo if desired.
Time Requirement: 2 minutes plopping & styling {not including overnight drying}
Skill Level: Easy

These styles are perfect for those hectic, early mornings because they take almost no time at all, AND they’re so darling! ❤️
