Homecoming Hairstyles: 51 Easy Styles For The Big Dance
By Emily Arata & Powered By L’Oreal Professional Products Division
Dance season is just around the corner, which means we’re about to enter a world entirely focused on false eyelashes, orchid corsages, and elaborate homecoming hairstyles.
Although planning for a dance is mega stressful—we get it—it’s worth remembering that any hairstyle you feel comfortable in is ultimately the right one for you. You’ll only have so many high school dances, and do you really want to spend half the night readjusting clip-in extensions in the bathroom? Whether you’re working with chestnut hair color or dirty blonde hair, we have a style that’ll suit you.
Whether you’re tackling your mane solo or enlisting a professional stylist to do the job, we’ve collected some of the easiest, prettiest styles in the hair universe for your perusal. Get reading, girl.

Messy Waves with Extra Volume
Let’s start with the basics. Nothing is prettier than a frizz-free wave, particularly on hair with highlights or ombre.

Crown Braid with Bun
We love crown braids because of their versatility. Create a deep side part, then Dutch braid along your hairline and pin.

Bubble Ponytail
Our favorite hairstyle is the one that looks rocket scientist-level complex but takes almost no time to complete. If that’s your vibe, too, then take the bubble ponytail for a spin.

Wraparound Braid
If your dream aesthetic is “cartoon princess who has naturally full hair,” then the wraparound braid is a must-try for homecoming.

Twisted Chignon
We fondly refer to this style as “the easiest updo of all time,” and with good reason. To get your chignon flow on, divide hair into three strands. Create a sleek bun with the middle piece, then cross both side strands across the bun and under. Pin and hairspray the style to secure it.

Extra High Wrapped Ponytail
If you’re a self-described diva with an over-the-top dress, you deserve a hairstyle that’s just as extra as you are.

Fishtail Half Updo
Half updos are the ideal way to keep hair out of your face while posing and dancing while making sure your mane makes it into photographs. After curling your entire head, create two fishtail braids above the ears. Once they’re long enough to meet behind your head, secure the ponytail.

Curly Half Ponytail
Curly girls, don’t think we’ve forgotten you. Instead of battling with your hair, embrace its texture with a loose half ponytail. The tail should sit in the center of your scalp so that the ponytail frames your face.

Pompadour
To ensure this style doesn’t fall flat, backcomb your crown and coat it with a healthy amount of hairspray. From the L’Oréal portfolio of products, we love Matrix Biolage Freeze Fix Humidity Resistant Hairspray.

Half Top Knot with Curls
This is the same idea as the curly half ponytail, just for ladies with fine hair. After teasing at the crown, create a very high half ponytail. Shape a tight bun, pinning to secure it. Then, curl the remaining strands of your hair.

We’re of the belief that nothing is better than a lob. The style is bouncy and playful to the max.

Double Crown Braid
For another short hair styling idea, try on a double crown braid. Starting with a side part, braid across the hairline and pin the plait behind your ear. Then, add the second braid behind the first. With this style, you’ll have instant volume that lasts until the DJ plays that final slow dance.

Braid with Hair Accessories
Hair accessories are back in a big way. From tiny pearl pins to matte ponytail holders, we love the look of a dressed-up jewelry piece in your mane. We like the look of a wide fishtail braid with pins throughout. It dresses up any homecoming gown.

Faux Shaved Side Braid
Feeling like you’ll want to walk on the dark side for the homecoming dance? A faux shaved side braid is edgy and (best of all) simple. Section off a rectangular patch of hair over one ear, creating a tight French braid. Secure the style with a no-show elastic, styling the rest of your mane in your favorite way.

Rosette Half Ponytail
If you’ve already chosen a romantic dress for homecoming, this half ponytail style will only add to the glamour of the look. Sectioning off the top of your hair, divide it into several equal strands. Braid and secure each one. Then, twist each braid into a floral shape and pin.

Bombshell Blowout
There’s one hairstyle that’s easier than the rest: the professional blowout. All you have to do is sit back and let a professional handle your hair, transforming it into cascading waves worthy of any celebrity. If you’ve been putting away a little cash from your after-school job, the blowout may be for you.

Short French Braids
Bobs and lobs may look chic, but the process of growing them out is truly awkward. A French braid (or two!) can disguise your length.

Half Ponytail With A Bow
If you’re stuck on what style to wear, create a large braid down the back of your head. Finish the braid with a short ponytail or bun for a spunky ‘do that still counts as an updo.

Waterfall braids are just like their French cousins, with the small caveat that you drop a piece everytime you cross another strand over. If you have short hair, this style is just right for your dance ‘do.
