If you’re a busy mom, you already know that getting your daughter ready for school can be… an ordeal in the mornings. Between backpacks, lunchboxes, and stressing about being late, you don’t always have the time (or energy) to create a picture-perfect hairstyle. But that’s about to change!

I perfectly understand, though – not every morning goes according to plan. You might want to try something new, but there’s only so much time you have to get everything ready and rush out the door. That’s where simple, dependable styles come into play. They become a lifesaver.

Having a few go-to hairstyles can really go a long way. Whether your little one is being active, having fun, or simply wanting to look cute, there is a hairstyle to try. 

In this article, I’ll tell you more about some beautiful and easy styles, such as the space buns hairstyle, and, of course, the braids hairstyle for girls.

Each option keeps the hair secure, polished, and looking lovely – so let’s dive in!

Fun Hairstyles for Adventurous Days

Who says a hairstyle cannot be both practical and stunning? You know, styles that keep the hair out the face and make you look super cute, too. If you’re not convinced yet, I have some things in mind that will, in turn, change yours.

These styles are not only adorable, but also keep hair neatly out of the face, making them perfect for any busy, active day. In fact, there’s no reason why you shouldn’t try them either because, after all, there’s no age restriction to looking good!

Space Buns

If your daughter is adventurous and outgoing, then the space buns hairstyle is a great one to try. It’s a playful look that she can depend on while feeling good rocking it. Here’s how to achieve it in a few simple steps:

1. Use a comb to part the hair straight down the middle.
2. Create two high ponytails – one on each side – and secure with elastics.
3. Take one ponytail, twist the hair around the base, and create a bun. Repeat on the other side.
4. Secure the buns with bobby pins. For extra hold or a more polished look, apply some hairspray.

This hairstyle is a great base for accessories, so don’t shy away from adding something in!

Braids

There is a reason braids have been a classic favorite for decades now. A braids hairstyle for girls can vary from simple three-strand braids to fishtail braids and French braids, making it easy to create even if you’re not too skilled.

The quickest, easiest one is popularized by Wednesday Addams from the Netflix hit show ‘Wednesday’. It takes only a few minutes, keeps the hair neat and pretty, and requires only two simple elastics:

1. Part the hair down the middle.
2. Simply braid both sections and secure them with elastics.
3. If you want to make this simple style even cuter, you can add ribbons or hairpins to make it a bit more polished.

Once you’ve mastered a few everyday looks, it will be fun to experiment with something a bit more complex. That way, you’ll always have a style ready for any occasion.

Princess-Worthy Updos

When you need something extra special – for recitals, family gatherings, or picture days – there are several options that will make your girl feel like a princess.

Chignon Hairstyle

This is a beautiful, elegant option for girls and their mothers as well, and I think that it would be a lovely matching hairstyle for the upcoming holidays.

1. Gather the hair into a low ponytail and split it in two, twisting both sections around each other.
2. Bring both sections up and cross them around the base.
3. Secure the chignon with bobby pins and apply some hairspray for a tighter hold.

Tinkerbell Hairstyle

Disney princesses are an endless source of hairstyle inspiration, and Tinkerbell’s haircut is where you should start when looking for a simple, pretty look.

1. Gather the hair into a very high ponytail and secure it on the top of the head.
2. For best results place a hair donut at the base of the ponytail, spread the hair around it evenly, and secure it with an elastic big enough to cover the donut.
3. Keep the hairstyle tight and neat. Add a ribbon or a sparkly hair accessory for an extra fancy feeling.

Quick, Gorgeous, and Ready for the Day

Choosing the ideal look for your little girl doesn’t have to be stressful, even on hectic mornings. Hair is a big part of a person’s confidence, and showing her how to care for it will make her feel like a princess while creating a bonding moment just for the two of you.

Whether she loves space buns hairstyle, a chignon hairstyle, or simple braids, there are plenty of hairstyles for kids to explore and find the best one. However, don’t stress yourself out if you have a big event coming and you want to make sure your little girl’s hairstyle turns out flawless.
