Aim for first place with your hairstyle too! Recommended hairstyles for sports day (71–80)
Stylish braided down-do

A loosely done braid-down style that gives off a chic, fashion-forward vibe! This hair arrangement is recommended for those with longer base hair.
Gather the hair at the back into a half-up and secure it with an elastic.
Bring the side sections over to hide the knot, twist them, and pin in place.
From the hair underneath, take a moderate section and do a topsy tail.
Braid the remaining hair into a three-strand braid and tie with an elastic; wrap a small section of hair around the elastic to hide it, and your stylish braid-down is complete! To keep it from falling apart, finish with a firm-hold hairspray.
Fishbone

One hairstyle whose weave looks like a fish’s bones is the fishtail braid.
It may seem difficult, but once you get the hang of it, it’s surprisingly easy! Try adapting this popular braided style for a sports day and become the center of attention.
First, split your hair into two sections.
Take a small piece from the outside of the right section and bring it to the middle, then take a small piece from the outside of the left section and bring it to the middle.
Keep repeating this, gradually working your way down as you braid.
To finish, gently pull out the stitches a little to loosen them—the relaxed look is super cute! Give it a try.
Twisty girly hairstyle with ribbons

If you want to try a hairstyle with a princess-like vibe, this hair arrangement is highly recommended.
Just twist your hair together with a ribbon secured to your head using a hair clip, and you’ll have an adorable style in no time.
It has a girly feel and gives a soft, gentle impression, so it’s sure to catch men’s attention.
If you have long hair, gathering it with soft curls is also super cute.
It’s also easy to keep in place, so you can participate in sports or cheer without worry.
If you want to catch the eye of someone you’re interested in, definitely give it a try.
ribbon hair

A cute ribbon hairstyle you can do without hair accessories! First, apply wax or oil to make your hair easier to manage, then tie it with an elastic.
Next, take a surface layer from the tied section, secure it with another elastic a little away from the base, create a slit in the middle of that section, and flip the ends up through from bottom to top.
Then, bring the base and the knot closer together, and the section will split into two to form a neat ribbon shape! Use a styling stick (or similar tool) to thread the lower section up through the base, then tie the base again with an elastic to secure the ribbon firmly.
If you’re worried about it coming loose, use hidden pins to hold it in place.
Ribbon-braided twin tails

These are twin tails braided with ribbons in your favorite colors like pink, yellow, or green! If you want to style them for a sports day, incorporating your class color would be a great idea.
First, part the hair down the center in a zigzag, create two Dutch braids, and secure them with elastics.
Then just thread the ribbon through the braids! Loosening the braids slightly or leaving some bangs out for a relaxed finish makes it extra cute.
For a final touch, curl the ends with a hair iron to boost the style even more—highly recommended!
Braided side ponytail

If a regular side ponytail doesn’t feel glamorous enough, try a braided side ponytail! It’s an easy hairstyle—just braid along one side and secure it with an elastic—but it looks very stylish.
Instead of braiding tightly, gently loosen the braid bit by bit at the end while neatening the sections to create a chic, grown-up cute look.
If doing your own hair is tricky, try styling each other’s hair with friends—it can deepen your friendship and make your sports day even more memorable.
heart-shaped braid

A heart pattern appears at the back of the head! This chic braided hairstyle shows a strong attention to detail.
Section off the sides and the back of the head, tie the hair at the back into one ponytail, and split it into two sections.
As you braid each section, gradually pick up hair from the sides and do an inside (Dutch) braid.
Do the same on the opposite side, and finally gather everything low into one, and you’ll have an adorable style with a big-impact heart-shaped braid.
Since it can get messy when putting on and taking off a hat, make sure to set it firmly after finishing.
In conclusion
We’ve introduced a variety of hairstyles recommended for sports day—what did you think? From classics like braids and buns to styles that build on those and unique looks that catch everyone’s eye, it’s hard to choose just one.
Try coordinating with your friends and enjoy not only the events but also your hair styling on sports day!
