4 Festival hairstyles for natural hair from MiniMarley12

To nail this look, you’ll need an elasticated floral headband and a couple of bobby pins. Start with a middle parting, and section 1-2 inches of hair at the front, using clips to hold them in place – this will make it easier to position your headband. Put your floral band over your head and slip it behind your two front sections of hair. Unclip the front sections and gently twist the hair and pin it back to conceal the headband. And you’re done!

Breanna’s tip: If you have lots of hair, cut the elasticated part of your floral accessory and pin the headband in place instead. Watch the video above to see this in action.

Start with a middle parting. On either side, take 1-2 inches of hair at the front (near your temples), and twist the hair back on itself until you reach about half way around your hairline (roughly just above your ear). Use bobby pins to secure the hair in place. Repeat this process on the other side. Now, take your floral elasticated headband and place it on the crown of your head. Adjust into place if you need to, and there you have it: festival-friendly hairstyles for natural hair that you can rock at The Secret Garden Party or Glasto!

Create a low ponytail by pulling your hair back and securing with a hair band. Leave a few loose tendrils out around your hairline for a more relaxed, laid-back look. Fluff your ponytail for volume, and finish with a floral or decorative elasticated headband around your head. Easy peasy.

For the last festival look, Breanna suggests trying something different and, in our opinion, just as lust-worthy as the previous boho styles. So, if you’re not into florals, this look is a great alternative: you just need to purchase a jewellery-like hair accessory with hair combs attached on either end (readily available at many stores!). To create this edgier alternative, pull your hair into a super high ponytail and secure with a hair band. At the back of your head, beneath the base of your ponytail, slot in your hair jewellery accessory using the attached combs, so that the embellishment hangs down at the back of hair. Elegant and easy? It’s a win-win!

Tip: Can’t find a chain hair accessory like Breanna’s? Don’t stress. Why not create your own with costume jewellery and two bobby pins? Just thread a bobby pin though the last loops of an embellished necklace or bracelet and then attach to your hair.
