Cute hairstyles for the school festival: Easy hair arrangements (21–30)
twin tails

You might think it’s just about splitting your hair into two sections and tying them up, but twin tails actually involve plenty of tips and tricks.
In the past and even now, when you want to look a bit youthful, twin tails are the go-to—and in today’s era of must-do hair arrangements, they’re trending again.
Looking at idols, you’ll see how cute twin tails can be done: whether the back part is straight or zigzag, whether you tie them below the ears or higher up—small choices can change the impression a lot.
Find the best placement that suits you!
half-up

If you want to look a bit more mature than usual for the school festival, I recommend a half-up hairstyle.
As the name suggests, you style the top half of your hair up, so it works not only for long hair but also for medium and shorter styles.
There are various ways to arrange it, but the basics are simple—you can do it with just a hair tie, no pins needed.
Try leaving a few face-framing strands at the sides, using the topsy-tail technique, or adding rope braids and shaping it into a bun-like look.
Adjust the style to suit your hair length and volume.

half twin

Half-up twin tails might feel a bit too childish at first, but it’s a hairstyle whose vibe changes a lot depending on the ends and where you tie them.
It’s very simple and you can do it right away—even with shorter hair! Using hair ties is great, but securing them with ribboned hair clips is also recommended.
The key is to curl your hair well with an iron before making the twins so the ends have movement.
If you have long hair, try a mixed curl for an extra cute look.
horizontal three-strand braid

Here’s a mature-looking side braid.
Take the hair above your ears and create a half-up twist (a “kuru-rinpa”).
Then take half of the remaining hair and feed it up from underneath through the half-up twist.
Finally, make a three-strand braid on one side and gently loosen it to finish.
You’ll get a cute, princess-like braid! Before braiding, brush your hair thoroughly to prevent tangles and get ready.
If you start braiding a bit lower, it gives a more sophisticated vibe.
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.
Y2K half-up

“Year 2000,” abbreviated as “Y2K,” is popular among Gen Z.
It mainly refers to fashion and culture that incorporate early-2000s vibes.
Here we have a Y2K hairstyle called the “Y2K half-up.” First, leave out your bangs and the hair on both sides, and make a half-up ponytail high on your head.
Next, braid the side sections you left out into three-strand braids.
Then place the braids behind your ears, and fan out the hair from the half-up section to both sides to finish.
When doing the half-up, don’t make it too neat—keeping it slightly messy gives it a more effortless, stylish look.

Here’s a braided ponytail that combines ease of movement with cuteness.
First, create a half-up style at a high position.
Tie the remaining lower hair in the same way, then combine the two into one to make a ponytail.
Next, split the gathered hair into two sections and braid each into a three-strand braid.
Finally, add thin ribbons around the elastic ties or along the braids, and you’re done! This hairstyle would be convenient for a sports festival too, since you can still wear a headband.
Have fun trying a new hairstyle while adding your own variations.
