[For Elementary School Kids] Recommended Hairstyles for Sports Day That Boost Motivation

The annual sports day is here!

Why not get pumped up for each event with a special hairstyle?

In this article, we’re introducing recommended hairstyles for elementary school students on sports day.

We’ve gathered cute and cool styles that are sure to catch everyone’s attention.

Since many elementary schoolers wear caps, we’ve also included styles that still show nicely even with a hat on.

You might think, “We’ll be sweating and it’ll mess up anyway,” but for this once-a-year big day, it’s worth going in with a high-energy hairstyle.

Be sure to try these out with help from a parent or guardian!

[For Elementary School Kids] Recommended Sports Day Hairstyles That Spark the Power to Do Your Best (1–10)

Recommended for kids with medium to long hair! Here are ideas for mini buns that look like K-pop idols.

No need for braids or twist-in styles.

Using six hair ties, let’s create cute mini buns that look adorable from both the front and the back.

When parting the hair into left and right, making the part zigzag will add an even cuter touch! If decorative hair ties are allowed, adding your favorite accessories to the buns will make it even more fun.

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.

[Korean Style] Braided Bun

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.

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!

Bubbly hair made with connected elastics

Bubbly hair made with connected elastics

This is a bumpy, textured hairstyle made with elastics that looks stylish with its irregular “poko-poko” effect.

Divide the hair into two sections and secure them with elastics at a low position behind the ears.

From there, keep tying the hair using elastics linked together.

It’s fine if the linked elastics stick together at first, since you’ll spread them out later.

Open up each elastic and pull some hair through the gaps.

The key is to gently pinch small sections of the outer hair to create that puffy, bumpy look.

Using elastics in various colors makes it bright and eye-catching—perfect for a sports day.

It’s also great because you can do it without braiding, making it quick and easy.

Let me introduce the fishtail braid, a style with fine weaving that’s sure to stand out even at a school sports day.

As the name suggests, its appearance resembles a fish’s bone, so you might think it looks difficult or complicated.

But while a regular braid uses three sections of hair, a fishtail braid is made with just two.

You simply repeat a set sequence, so once you get the hang of it, it’s actually easy.

You can create different moods depending on how thick each section is and how loosely you braid.

If you make it low, it’s less likely to get messed up even when wearing a hat.

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!
