Top 5 Festival Hair Styles

It’s that time of year again! Festival season is upon us and at Feather My Head, we’re here to give you the top five festival hairstyles. Festivals consist of long days, hot weather, and lots of walking. The last thing you want to have to worry about is your hair. These Instagramable styles will keep you cool and comfortable and are guaranteed to last through all the dancing taking place that weekend.

Before you go, it’s important to prep your hair. If you’re staying at a campsite, make sure to bring products like dry shampoo or other style extenders if you do not plan on washing your hair that weekend. If you are staying somewhere like a hotel, be sure to include all your hair care goodies. Packing them in travel-size containers will save you space and won't weigh down your suitcase. We also recommend doing a hair mask the night before you leave. This will help moisturize your hair and keep it silky smooth all weekend long.

Now for the hairstyles…

Braids

Braids are probably the most popular type of hairstyle you're going to see at festivals. There’s so much you can do with them, and the best part is, they give your hair some natural wave and body after you take them out. They’re also relatively quick and are guaranteed to stay put all day long. One of our favorite styles is just two french or dutch braids. It’s easy, heat-free, and super cute! You can also accessorize your braids with feather extensions, bobby pins, or even throw a flower in with them. The possibilities are truly endless with braids!

Space Buns

Space buns are a great option if you’ve got a lot of hair, and don't want to spend time messing with it during the day. If you don’t know what space buns are, it’s just two buns that are on top of your head. It keeps your hair out of your face and off your neck, which is great if the festival you’re going to is somewhere hot. Space buns are also super easy to accessorize too. Some trends we’ve seen are braids, foil extensions, and glitter parts.

Half Up-Half Down

Can’t decide if you want to wear your hair up or down? Now you don’t have to choose. There are so many styles you can incorporate into the versatile style. You can even incorporate space buns and braids. This style is also perfect if you’re heading toward the end of the weekend and your hair is becoming a bit greasy.

Feather Extensions

Feather extensions are the perfect way to enhance your hair. You can pick from either a neutral color, like brown or black, or go all the way with a fun color. At Feather My Head, we have all types of feather hair extensions to choose from! Our feathers are of extremely high quality and come from roosters sourced from the Rocky Mountains. Our feathers have premium saddles and are dyed with a natural mineral dye, designed to not fade or break down the feather. Feathers can be styled in any way. They can go through any type of heat styling (just be sure not to burn them off) and washing.

Glitter Parts

Glitter parts are the perfect way to take your hair from a two to a ten. They add just the right amount of fun and can be added to any type of hairstyle. No matter if you’re wearing your hair down, half up, or even all the way up, you can add some glitter. One easy way to do this is to mix any glitter with some type of hair gel or styling serum.  You can also add some confetti in for a more dimensional 3D look! Glitter is both a fun and functional way to hold your hair in place for the entire day, and you won’t have to worry about the glitter falling off since it is gelled to your head.
