Back to School Updos

Easy Updo

This is a Lauren Conrad inspired hairstyle that will get the bangs out of your face and offer a very cute look. It’s very easy to create and can also be a perfect choice for when you’re in a hurry in the morning. The video does not actually show how to turn this into an updo but that can easily be done by pulling your hair up in a bun or pony tail. There are so many options that can start with a simple twist so we recommend learning the simple procedure and then experimenting yourself!

Simple Half Updo, Side Braid and Messy Bun

This three minute video shows three different easy updos that can be created in just a couple minutes. The first is the half up half down look that has been popularized by Audrina Patridge of The Hills over the past few years. The second is a simple side braid that is very cute and flirty. You can also put this up in a side bun if you so choose. The third is a very easy messy bun that is simply a ponytail pulled up into a bun. We love this video because it shows how simple and quickly you can create an adorable look for school in a matter of minutes or even seconds!

Low Messy Bun with Curls

This is a Selena Gomez inspired look that can be created in just a few minutes. It can be achieved with either naturally curly or straight hair. We love the braid headband and encourage readers to master this technique as there are endless variations that can be added to this ‘accessory’.

Side Bun Updo

This is another back to school updo option that is basic yet provides a bit of an alternative look to the standard ponytail or messy bun. This tutorial is very easy to follow and the updo looks great with the headband. Consider adding some long earnings for a touch of elegance on the first day back!

Messy Back to School Updo

Here is another variation on the messy updo. This looks send a very casual message but gives a very flirty, cute appeal. Experiment with the waves and curls to create your own gorgeous look.
