Hey, hey my photo loving friends! 😘 You know how it goes—spring weather can be so unpredictable! One minute, it’s sunny, and the next, it’s windy as all get-out. If you’re planning a photoshoot or just want to look put-together during your outdoor adventures, you might be wondering: What the heck should I do with my hair when it’s windy? No worries—I’ve got you covered with some cute and practical hairstyles that will stay in place and look fab in your photos, no matter how breezy it gets.
1. The Breezy Low Ponytail
A low ponytail is one of those classic styles that looks effortlessly chic, no matter what’s going on with the weather. When the wind blows, your ponytail will sway just like in the movies, and it won’t get frizzy or fly everywhere. Plus, it gives you a neat, sleek look that still feels fresh and fun. Here’s how to make it look great in photos:
- Add some volume at the crown by teasing your hair a little before securing it into a low ponytail.
- Loosen a few strands near your face for a softer, more romantic look.
- Use a cute hair tie (think: a satin scrunchie or ribbon) to keep it looking stylish.
2. Beachy Waves with Texture
Windy weather and beachy waves? Honestly, it’s a match made in heaven! If you love a relaxed, beachy vibe, the wind will actually add some natural texture to your hair, making your waves look even more effortless. Here’s how to achieve this look:
- Use a sea salt spray to create texture and enhance your natural wave. Work it through damp hair, scrunching as you go, and let it air dry or finish with a blow dryer for a little more volume.
- If you want to make the waves even more defined, use a curling iron, but make sure to leave the ends a little looser for that beachy, undone look.
3. The Classic Braid
Braids are your best friend when it comes to windy weather! A braid keeps your hair under control but still looks super cute and feminine. You can go with a classic French braid, a side braid, or even a messy fishtail braid for a more boho vibe. Plus, it’s a fantastic style for photos because it keeps everything in place.
- For a more polished look, go for a neat French braid.
- If you want something more relaxed, try a loose, messy side braid, allowing a few pieces to fall naturally around your face for a softer look.
4. The Messy Bun (with a Twist)
If you want something that looks chic and effortless (and can withstand the wind), a messy bun is a go-to. It’s low-maintenance, stylish, and perfect for photos. Here’s how to make it extra cute:
- Gather your hair into a loose bun at the nape of your neck, leaving a few strands loose to frame your face.
- Add a little volume by pulling on sections of the bun to make it look fuller.
- If the wind is blowing hard, you can even leave the bun a little messier for an intentionally carefree look!
Pro Tip:
If the wind gets extra wild, try using a little hairspray or a texturizing spray to lock everything into place. That way, your hairstyle won’t budge, and you can confidently pose for your photos.
