[For Kids] Sports Day Hairstyles and Hair Arrangements That Work with a Hat (41–50)
[Korean Style] Braided Bun
https://www.tiktok.com/@hair.styler38/video/7488915448361258248Here’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.
tight ponytail
Introducing the tight ponytail that changes its vibe depending on where you tie your hair.
Make a ponytail and wrap a ribbon or string around it.
Tying your hair low gives a mature look, while tying it high creates a casual impression.
If you tie it tightly, it won’t come undone easily—perfect for sports day hair when you’ll be moving around or wearing a hat.
Choosing the color of the ribbon or string can be fun too.
Even if your hair is on the shorter side, as long as you can gather it into one ponytail, you can try this style—give it a go!
Braided-style arrangement for bob-length hair

Even with shorter hair, you can do a cute hairstyle.
If your hair is about shoulder length, give it a try.
Gather the hair from the sides and tie it together at the back.
Tie the hair beneath that first ponytail, then make a hole above the elastic.
Flip the first ponytail through the hole (a topsy tail) and pull it through.
Gather the remaining lower hair into one ponytail as well, tie it above the second elastic, and do another topsy tail.
Now all three elastics are hidden.
For a cute finish, tuck a scarf or ribbon into the bottom elastic and wrap it around.
Reverse Dutch braid-style hair arrangement

Here’s a reverse French-braid-style hair arrangement that won’t fall apart even with a headband.
First, take a suitable amount of hair from the crown and the middle of your head, tie them at the back, and create a base.
Leave the lower section down for now.
Then combine the tied hair from the top and middle, and tie them together along with the lower hair.
Loosen the tied sections slightly as you go, repeating the braiding motion to shape and refine the look.
Finish by securing with an elastic, and you’re done.
This will keep styles that usually fall apart during sports looking cute and intact.
It might be adorable to match the whole class with the same style!
