12 Back To School Hairstyles That Will Last

Three questions usually come to mind at the start of a new school year: Which classes am I taking? Do I know anyone in said classes? What am I doing with my hair?

I might've been one of the few asking that last question (shoutout to getting good grades and staying fly), but it's an important one nonetheless!

While having a flawless hairdo for the first day can add major confidence points, what about the rest of the year? For those who can't make it home before the holidays, a long-lasting hairstyle is a no-brainer. You won't have to worry about your hair everyday, and you'll be slaying with minimal effort. Not only will your hair last until turkey time for Thanksgiving, but there is tons of variety for what you can do!

Today, we share cute back to school hairstyles that will last until the holidays.

Lobs With Curves

Lobs are still one of my favorite chic hairstyles. Your crush from 3rd period doesn't stand a chance when he sees you with these flirty waves.

Wavy Braids

If you truly want a no-fuss style that will last through to the holidays, braids are your new BFF. They take some time to do, but once they're in--they're in. My favorite style right now are braids and twists with a feminine wave.

Bangin'

Why not try bangs this back to school season? You can try a classic full fringe or keep it demure with a side swoop. You can create these looks with either a full weave or create a full wig and have your stylist create the bangs.
