Aim for first place with your hairstyle too! Recommended hairstyles for sports day (61–70)
half-up bun hairstyle

A half-up bun hairstyle is a hair arrangement that combines cuteness with a mature vibe.
Unlike a regular bun, it also gives you a polished, effortless look.
In general, you start by pulling your hair up like a normal bun and securing it with an elastic.
Then lightly curl the side sections inward.
Flipping the hair around the ears outward makes it even cuter, so it’s recommended.
To keep it relaxed, just curl it loosely—no need to overdo it.
It might be tricky until you get used to it, but give it a try!
pompadour

The pompadour, where you twist up your bangs, is the perfect hairstyle for a sports day—you can focus on the competition without worrying about messy bangs! Dampen your bangs, section off the area you want for the pompadour, and twist it upward toward the back.
Push the roots slightly forward to create volume in the gathered section, then secure with pins to finish.
You can also make it extra stylish by splitting the blocked section into two: twist and pin one side first, then cross the remaining section over it and pin in place.
Mickey hair

If you’re fine without wearing a hat, we recommend “Mickey hair” for a lively look! Create a zigzag part and split your hair into two sections, then make high pigtails.
Tease each section with a comb to add volume, and, keeping the fluffiness, wrap it around the base to form buns.
You’ll end up with a cute hairstyle reminiscent of Mickey’s big ears! To prevent loose strands from making it look messy, finish by setting it firmly with hairspray.
Low ponytail with braided ribbon headband

If you want to create a stylish and elegant vibe, we recommend a braided low ponytail with a ribbon headband.
This hairstyle features a ponytail set low and is perfect for adult women.
By braiding in a headband with a ribbon, you get a glamorous finish.
You can also add variety by making the braided sections larger or smaller.
Try a more mature look than usual for your sports festival.

braided bangs

A braided bang style that can dramatically change your look without tying up all your hair! Section off the area you want to braid and work in some styling product.
Divide the hair at your starting point into three strands and make one regular braid.
Next, do a one-sided French braid in the direction you want to take the braid, adding small sections of hair as you go.
Gently loosen the braid for texture, then secure it with an elastic or pins.
If any short pieces stick out, tuck them in with U-pins, and you’ll have a fringe arrangement that neatly frames your face.
Basic ribbon braiding

This is a style where you add ribbon to the most basic French braid.
Part your hair down the center, take the top center section, and start a three-strand braid; with each step down, add hair from both sides—just the standard French braid—then simply incorporate a ribbon.
If you already do French braids regularly, it should be easy to try.
Key points: start weaving the ribbon in from the very top, and keep the ribbon in front as you braid so it doesn’t slip behind the hair section.
If you have long hair, you can braid partway and twist it into a bun; even those with medium-length hair can give it a go!
Braided-look hair with just tying

Because it’s securely held with elastic bands, this easy hairstyle is perfect for energetic sports days.
First, work hair wax or similar product through the entire hair, then divide the back into two sections and clip them.
Take a small section from the top, tie it with an elastic, then tie another section slightly lower.
Next, split the hair below the upper elastic in two, wrap those halves around the ends of the lower section, and secure.
Finally, gather the remaining hair together with an elastic to finish.
Loosen the braid to your liking to add a stylish touch.
