Firm bun

When you’re playing sports, keeping your hairstyle in place is a key point, right? Here’s a bun style that’s secure yet still cute.
First, apply hair oil thoroughly throughout your hair and make a ponytail.
Split the ponytail into two sections; twist one section counterclockwise and wrap it around the base.
Next, combine it with the other section and continue twisting as you wrap it around.
Because it’s wrapped in two layers, it’s less likely to come undone, letting you stay cute even while playing sports! Leaving some hair at the sides boosts the cuteness even more.

Here’s a bun made with braids that won’t easily get messed up even when wearing a hat.
Create two thin braids starting from high points on both the right and left sides.
Divide the remaining hair into two sections and combine each with the right and left braids.
Then, make two braids on each side again and secure them with elastics so the ends are tucked inward.
The result is a cute, upside-down heart shape.
Adding a ribbon of your choice can change the vibe depending on the color and design.
Since the hair is gathered lower down, the bun stays clearly visible even with a hat on.
Easy, cute low ponytail with no visible hair tie

Happy that the hair ties are hidden! Here are some easy and cute low ponytail ideas.
These hidden-hair-tie low ponytails are perfect if you’re “looking for an easy hairstyle” or “want something that doesn’t look sloppy.” All you need is two hair ties.
Just twist the hair on both sides and loop the ponytail through—your hair will look like it was professionally styled! After tying, gently pull out small sections of hair to add an effortless, polished touch.
Kururinpa half twin

Let’s try making half twin tails by arranging the simple yet polished-looking “kururinpa” (topsy tail) technique! Take about half of the hair on one side and tie it with a hair elastic.
Then simply do a topsy tail with the tied section.
Repeat the topsy tail on the other side as well.
Since it neatly gathers the hair at the sides, it’s a perfect hairstyle for sports festivals or athletic events.
Even those with bob-length hair who can’t fully tie their hair can try this style, so give it a go.
Add a headband, and it’s sure to look extra cute!
hood worn for fighting; a head covering used in brawls (kenka-kaburi)

I’ll show you a cool way to tie the ‘kenka-kaburi’ head wrap.
Place the towel on your head, grab both ends, and twist them tightly.
Bring the ends to the back and cross them, then secure the twisted sections.
Next, bring the back part of the towel up from below and cover the crossed section to finish.
You can change the vibe by adjusting how tightly you twist and where you position the towel.
To make it look sharp, keep the fabric tight and avoid any sagging.
