It\u2019s a great go-to hairstyle when you don\u2019t have much time for your hair. Just pull your hair into a ponytail and twist it around the centre. Tuck the ends of the hair in, secure with an elastic band (or bobby pins) and you\u2019re ready to slay.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Go half up, half down<\/strong><\/h4>\n<figure id=\"attachment_10120\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-10120\" style=\"width: 320px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-10120 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.darlingafrica.com\/southafrica\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/Go-half-up-half-down.jpg\" alt=\"Go half up, half down\" width=\"320\" height=\"320\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-10120\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Image Courtesy: naturalhairmag.com<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>To spice up your look, why not try putting half your hair up into a bun and letting the rest hang loose?

Just follow the steps above, pair it with your fave spring outfit and shades, and let your creativity flow.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Make a big top knot<\/strong><\/h4>\n<figure id=\"attachment_10121\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-10121\" style=\"width: 320px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-10121 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.darlingafrica.com\/southafrica\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/Make-a-big-top-knot.jpg\" alt=\"Make a big top knot\" width=\"320\" height=\"320\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-10121\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Image Courtesy: Sclance<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>To make a bold statement you need to embrace big hair. With twist braids, this is easy to do. Separate your braids into a front and back section. The front section will make the bun, so choose how much hair you\u2019ll need depending on the size of the bun you\u2019d like to make. Hold it in a high ponytail and part it into two sections.<\/p>\n<p>Take the front section across on the front side. Take the other section on top of it, towards the other side. Neatly turn the rest of the hair around and secure with bobby pins. Keep the crisscross at the front as this is what really makes this look pop.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>A fairytale hairstyle<\/strong><\/h4>\n<figure id=\"attachment_10122\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-10122\" style=\"width: 320px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-10122 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.darlingafrica.com\/southafrica\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/A-fairytale-hairstyle.jpg\" alt=\"A fairytale hairstyle\" width=\"320\" height=\"320\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-10122\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Image Courtesy: hunnybunvirginhair.com<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>If you\u2019re looking for a more playful look then this is the one to try. It\u2019s different and understated, yet still glamorous, which is perfect if you\u2019re attending a spring wedding.<\/p>\n<p>Take a section of your hair in the front and braid it down the side.

You can even add a few flowers to give it an even more feminine look.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Brave the undercut<\/strong><\/h4>\n<figure id=\"attachment_10123\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-10123\" style=\"width: 320px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-10123 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.darlingafrica.com\/southafrica\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/brave-the-undercut.jpg\" alt=\"brave the undercut\" width=\"320\" height=\"320\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-10123\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Image Courtesy: Pinterest<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Last but not least on our list of must-try hairstyles is the undercut high ponytail.
