Homecoming is all about glamour, and looking your best is easy when you choose an adorable hairstyle. No matter whether your locks are short or long, finding the appropriate hairdo can give your appearance that special something!
Make an elegant yet feminine impression with a half up half down style featuring braids or loose strands pulled out to create an eye-catching girl-next-door appearance. Add extra flair with colorful hair accessories!
Braided Fishtail Braids
Fishtail braids are always a stylish look that can transform a romantic date night look or add flair at work, yet are relatively straightforward to master. Before braiding, pull all your hair to one side and divide it into two equal sections (these will be known as Sections 1 and 2), then begin braiding by crossing Section 2 over Section 1. Keep going until you reach the base of your hair, where you can secure it loosely with an elastic. Mannino advises spraying your hair with KLORANE’s Dry Shampoo with Oat Milk before styling to give the braid some grip and texture for better holding together and stop its strands from becoming too slippery. This step should also prevent the slipperiness of strands during styling.
Slicked Back Ringlets
As opposed to its more formal counterpart, this stylish pompadour feels rock ‘n’ roll while remaining feminine and can even make for red carpet-ready looks when combined with bold lipstick colors. This sleek hairstyle for men features a subtle side part to add dimension and definition. Additionally, this can help give an undercut some much-needed meaning. Slicking your hair before pulling it back into a ponytail will prevent flyaways and help the style stay in place throughout the day. Greasing before creating a top knot is another classic style that’s easy to pull off; pair this look with temple fades for added contrast between the top and sides of the head!
Twisted Fishtails
A twisted fishtail is another adorable homecoming hairstyle that makes you look like an absolute queen. Perfect for girls with medium hair texture, this trending style looks gorgeous and is easy to achieve. Comb through your hair, divide it into two large front sections, and twist them back towards the back for an elegant fishtail updo without using too much hairspray. This will give you a stunning fishtail updo without needing too many chemicals on your locks! If you’re searching for an elegant homecoming hairstyle, look at this romantic combination of soft curls and fishtail braid. Add flowers or other pretty accessories for more feminine charm – this hairdo also works perfectly for prom and bridal season!
French Roll or Chignon
French rolls or chignons are timeless updo hairstyles that never go out of fashion, perfect for adding glamour and sophistication to any look. Made famous by Hollywood stars as well as streetwise fashionistas alike, these sophisticated looks are easy to master and work well in both formal events as well as everyday wear. Manetti recommends this style for second-day hair, though if your locks have recently been washed, you could use dry shampoo or texture spray like TONI
