Holi is all about fun, colours, and getting absolutely drenched—but does that mean your hair has to look like a bird’s nest by the end? Absolutely not! These DIY Holi hairstyles will keep you looking cute, stylish, and Instagram-ready, no matter how wild the celebrations get.
Holi is that one festival where no matter how put together you look at the start, by the end, you’re just hoping for some damage control. While we can’t stop your friends from attacking you with color, we can make sure your hair stays cute and manageable even when drenched. Enter: DIY Holi hairstyles that are equal parts adorable and practical.
Nothing says main character energy like a braided crown. It keeps your hair away from your face while adding an effortlessly chic vibe. Just part your hair in the middle, create two braids on each side, and pin them at the back of your head for a goddess-like look. Bonus? No post-Holi tangles!
Why settle for one bun when you can have two? Space buns are quirky, playful, and practically indestructible. Just part your hair in the middle, twist each section into a bun, and secure it with bobby pins. No more sticky, colored strands getting in your way while you chase your bestie with a water balloon!
If you’re looking for a hairstyle that’ll hold through all the gulaal and pichkari madness, boxer braids are the answer. They keep your hair tucked in place, prevent post-Holi knots, and add a sporty, edgy vibe to your festive fit. Just braid two sections tightly from the top down to the ends—et voilà!
A regular ponytail is meh, but a bubble ponytail? Chef’s kiss! Simply tie your hair into a high pony, then add more hair ties down the length, pulling each section slightly for a “bubble” effect. Not only is it Holi-proof, but it also gives off major cool girl vibes.
Want to protect your hair from all the color damage and look like a Pinterest dream? A floral bandana is your best friend. Just tie it around your head, leaving some hair loose for a soft, effortless look. Plus, it adds instant aesthetic to any Holi outfit!
With these DIY Holi hairstyles, you’re all set to slay the festival while making sure your hair stays cute, tangle-free, and ready for the ‘gram. Because looking like a mess post-Holi? Not on our watch!
