Whether you’re headed to a tropical getaway or a weekend camping trip, there’s nothing more fun than planning your perfect vacation look. This includes everything from outfits to makeup to your hairstyle. While you don’t want to spend too much time worrying about your hair while you’re away, it’s still important to have some go-to looks that will help you look your best and keep your hair out of your face. Here are some of our favorite vacation hair styles that are both stylish and low-maintenance:
1. Braided Ponytail:
A braided ponytail is one of the easiest vacation hairstyles to throw together. For an effortless look, braid your hair into a single French braid and secure it at the nape of your neck. This look is perfect for days spent in the sun or hitting the town.
2. Messy Bun:
A messy bun is another great vacation hairstyle that takes just minutes to create. Gather your hair into a high or low ponytail and twist it into a bun. Use bobby pins to secure it in place and don’t forget to leave out a few wispy pieces around your face.
3. Half-Up Half-Down:
If you want to keep your hair off your face but don’t want to commit to a full updo, try a half-up half-down style. Simply pull the top section of your hair back into a half-up ponytail and leave the bottom half loose. This look is perfect for days spent sightseeing or exploring a new city.
4. Braided Headband:
If you’re looking for more intricate vacation hair styles, try a braided headband. This style looks best with longer hair, but you can make it work with any length. Start by braiding the sides of your hair, then pull them back and tie them into a headband shape. This look is great for beach days or nights spent dancing.
5. Loose Waves:
Loose waves are a great way to look polished and put-together. You can easily create this look with a curling iron or straightener. It’s also an ideal look if you’re going to be spending a lot of time outdoors, since it’s low-maintenance and won’t get messy in the wind.
6. French twist:
The French twist is a timeless style that is perfect for a night out or a fancy dinner. To create this look, gather your hair into a low ponytail and twist it up and around until it forms a bun. Secure it with bobby pins and you’re ready to go.
7. Undone french twist:
This is a spin off of the french twist. It is great for looking put together while making it seem effortless. Start by curling your hair then loosely gather your hair into a low ponytail, leaving out the front pieces (your money pieces) and twist the rest up and around until it forms a bun. Leave out the ends of the hair and secure the rest with bobby pins. Finish up with recurling the end pieces and your front pieces.
8. Boho braid:
If you’re looking for a boho-chic look, try a boho braid. To get this look, gather your hair into a high ponytail and braid it. Then, secure it with an elastic and you’re ready to go.
9. Space Buns:
Space buns are perfect for vacation days. Separate your hair into two sections and pull up through a hair tie and on the last loop dont pull all the way through leaving a bun. Pull the bun to help give it volume and bobby pin down the desired hair pieces.
10. Dutch Braids:
Dutch braids are a fun way to keep your hair out of your face while looking stylish. Divide your hair into two sections and braid each one, crossing the pieces over each other rather than under.
11. Fishtail Braided pigtails:
The fishtail braid is a fun and unique way to style your hair. Start with separating your hair in two down the middle. At the top of your head start crossing the pieces over each other. When you get to the bottom of your head use the rest of the hair and tie into a ponytail, repeat on the other side.
No matter where your vacation takes you, these vacation hair styles are sure to keep you looking chic and feeling comfortable. With just a few simple steps, you’ll have the perfect look for any adventure.
