The best part about festival season, IMO? The hairstyles. Festival season gives you an excuse to be super extra with your hair. From bright hair colours to fun hair accessories, there’s no limit to all the looks you can come up with. So please, I beg you, don’t just throw on a flower crown and call it a day. There so many super cute hairstyles that’ll get people to double-tap when you throw up your ‘gram. Ahead, the 20 best festival hairstyles that’ll turn heads all season long.

1. Festival Hairstyle: Pink Ombre Hair

I know—dying your hair pink won’t bring anything new to the festival circuit, but the reverse ombre colour does add a new twist. Keep your colour bright during all of festival season with a pink shampoo.

2. Festival Hairstyle: Messy Low Bun

Let’s be honest—you’re going to end up throwing your hair in a bun by the end of the day, anyway. So why not make your messy bun look a little more intentional? Use a curling wand to add soft waves to your hair and then secure your bun with a few bobby pins.

3. Festival Hairstyle: Colourful Bobby Pins

Adding bright bobby pins makes it look like you put a ton of thought into your festival hairstyle (when you actually didn’t). It legit takes five minutes. Just pull your hair into a ponytail and a few bobby pins on each side of your part.

4. Festival Hairstyle: Colourful Double Bun

Next time you go and see your braider, have them give your locs or braids a fun twist by adding some colour and throwing them into a double bun. Not only are they way cute, but they’ll keep your hair off your neck when it’s hot outside.

5. Festival Hairstyle: Flipped Ponytail

A sleek, high ponytail is a chic way to look cute during a concert and keep your hair out of your face too. Make the high pony look a bit more modern by using a flat iron or curling wand to flip up the ends.

6. Festival Hairstyle: Hair Chains

Forget a regular ring or necklace—deck your hair out in jewellery instead. Slick down your hair with a smoothing cream and have a friend attach the chains to the back of your head.

7. Festival Hairstyle: Face-Framing Colour

If you haven’t heard, high contrast hair is back. All your favourite celebrities have already cashed in on the trend, so it’s only a matter of time before you see this all over your IG feed. Get on it before all your friends do and ask your colourist for face-framing bright colour that’ll pop against your dark hair.

8. Festival Hairstyle: Loose Gems

Adding loose gems to your ponytail is a great way to let your hair do all the talking—it sends a message (literally) and is a fun, fresh take on festival hair.

9. Festival Hairstyle: Messy Topknot

Hit snooze one too many times and need an easy look you can do before the first set? Spritz on texturizing spray, scrunch up your hair, part the top half into a messy topknot, and boom—you’re ready to go.

10. Festival Hairstyle: Cherry Hair Tattoo

A music festival is the perfect excuse to add your favourite emoji onto your hair. All you need for this dope hair tattoo is a stencil and some temporary hair colour.

11. Festival Hairstyle: The Modern Mullet

Guys, the mullet is back. But, I promise, this iteration is a lot cooler than its 70s counterpart. Think more shag and less mullet—it’s an easy way to give your hair some edge while also adding depth and dimension.

12. Festival Hairstyle: Hair Clips

You know those clips that your stylist puts in your hair to hold it in place? Add a couple of those to your hair to finish off the style—they’re a lot more unique than those pearl clips everyone else will be wearing.

13. Festival Hairstyle: Bedazzled Edges

Lay your edges with a non-flaky edge control, swirl them into a sick design, and then tap on rhinestones to add an Insta-worthy sparkle to your festival hair.

14. Festival Hairstyle: Sleek Bun

Slicking your hair back into a tight, low bun is an easy (but still v cute) way to keep all your hair in check, no matter how hot or humid it is outside.

15. Festival Hair: Rope Braid

fishtail braid for Coachella? Groundbreaking. Instead of falling into the cliché, try out this rope braid, seen here on Sofia Richie instead. Don’t forget to spray on a strong hold hairspray to make sure it doesn’t unravel.

16. Festival Hairstyle: Braided Pigtails

Level up your regular ‘ol pigtails and turn them into braided pigtails. And if you’re afraid you’ll look like a 5-year old, avoid the middle part and give yourself a deep-side one instead.

17. Festival Hairstyle: Half-Up Ponytail

Instead of throwing your hair in a basic pony, add some waves, tie up the top half, and leave out a few face-framing tendrils to recreate this stunning festival hairstyle.

18. Festival Hairstyle: Headscarf

A headscarf is actually perfect for those days when you don’t want to do your hair, but you want to, you know, still look cute. If you need some extra security to keep it from flying off in the mosh pit, stick a few bobby pins in the back.
