This twisted bun is my daily go-to whenever I leave the house or have to step out into the heat. I just gather my hair up high and twist it around until the ponytail curls around itself. All you need is a scrunchie or hair tie (preferably one that doesn’t leave kinks). This is also a great way to get wavy hair on the go!
The glam factor in this look swings more nighttime than day, but there’s something completely classy about the deliberately tousled hair around the crown of her head. Whether you’re going for a bun or ponytail, this is one way to make your face look longer. Perfect if you’ve got a more rounded face.

All you need is a few hair ties and a comb, to recreate the look. It’s great for casual occasions, such as parties, festivals, or even everyday wear.
A braid across the top of your head might seem old-fashioned – it is called a milkmaid braid after all – but it’s made a comeback on the runway in the last few seasons and is definitely worth trying out. All you need to do is braid your hair in two sections on either side of your face before wrapping them up and over top. Braids look really cool with various hair colours or highlights, and this look is even evening glam-appropriate.
Claw clips hairstyles are all the rage at the moment and if you’re thinking of trying a hairstyle that you can do in seconds, consider the side-clipped twist. tart off by clipping one side of your hair with the clip. Then, twist your hair up and open the claw clip so that it catches the rest of your hair.
You might need some help with this one if braiding isn’t your forte, but it’s easier than it looks.

For a rough idea, you can check out this tutorial that shows you how this even works for shorter hair.
While the goal with hot weather is to generally keep your hair off your neck, I find side ponytails or braids to be just cool enough to not irritate. Plus, braiding your hair from the side is so much easier than trying to braid it down the back of your neck.
