4 Must-Try Curly Hairstyles for Back-to-School Season

Hola, hermanas! With the new school year approaching, it's the perfect moment to explore easy and playful looks that highlight your beautiful curls. We’re excited to share our top four curly hairstyles that will help you celebrate your natural texture with confidence this back-to-school season. 

Let’s make this school year the best one yet with these four chic and easy hairstyles:

1. Headband Chic: The headband chic look is a fantastic and stylish way to showcase your curls while effortlessly adding a touch of elegance. Begin by applying our Hydrating Curl Cream or Styling Gel to define and enhance your natural curls. Select a headband that compliments your outfit and gently place it over your hair, just behind your hairline. For a sleek finish, gently tuck any loose curls behind the headband and adjust the placement to perfect your look.

2. Half Up Half Down with Bubble Braids: The ultimate back-to-school hairstyle! Begin by dividing your hair into two sections: the top half and the bottom half. Secure the top section with a hair tie to create a half-up look. For the bubble braids, take small sections of the top half and create regular braids, securing each segment with small elastics to achieve the playful “bubbles” effect. Gently pull apart each braid to add extra volume and bounce.

3. Easy Pineapple Bun: The ideal choice for its effortlessly elegant look and simplicity during the back-to-school season. Start by applying our Hydrating Curl Cream to enhance your natural curls and add volume. Gather your hair into a high ponytail at the crown of your head, securing it with a hair tie. Twist the ponytail into a loose bun, letting some curls fall out naturally for a relaxed, carefree look. Secure the bun with bobby pins placed randomly for that perfectly messy charm. For added volume and texture, gently pull at the bun and loosen a few strands around your face.

4. The Double Braided Pigtails: This playful style (Also great for curly kids) keeps your hair beautifully secured and perfectly in place throughout the entire school day. To achieve this look, start by sectioning your hair into two even ponytails and securing them with elastics. Apply our Hydrating Curl Cream to enhance and define your curls. Braid each ponytail into two smaller braids maintaining consistent tension. For a refined finish, gently unravel the braids to blend them seamlessly with the rest of your curls, creating the most stylish look.
