Festival Hair

Festival Hair: Your Ultimate Guide to Head-Turning Looks This summer

Festival season isn’t just about the music—it's a full-on style experience. From boho-chic outfits to glitter-packed makeup, your hair deserves just as much attention. Whether you're dancing on the beach, partying in the lake, or catching sunsets at coastal venues, your hair should be as fun, free-spirited, and bold as your vibe.

So, let’s talk festival hair: the styles, trends, tips, and must-haves to help you steal the spotlight for the upcoming music festivals

1. Braids, Braids, Braids

From classic Dutch braids to whimsical bubble braids, these are not only stylish but practical. Braids keep your hair off your face, stay intact all day, and work beautifully with accessories. Bonus points for incorporating mini braids into loose waves for a relaxed, ethereal look.

2. Boho Waves

Soft, effortless waves scream “festival goddess.” Use a sea salt spray for that undone, beachy texture.

3. Space Buns

Cute, quirky, and functional—space buns are a staple. Rock them high, low, sleek, or messy. Add glitter at the parting or weave in coloured extensions for an out-of-this-world look.

Festival Hair Tips

  • Hydrate Your Hair: Sun, sweat, and styling can dry it out. Use a leave-in conditioner or hair oil to keep strands soft and shiny.

  • Prep with Dry Shampoo: It’ll add volume and texture while keeping greasy roots at bay on day two (or three).

  • Secure It: Wind, dancing, and long days call for strong-hold products. A good hairspray or styling wax is your best friend.

  • Pack Mini Tools: A travel-size brush, extra elastics, and a few bobby pins can save the day.
