Your Guide to Country Concert Hairstyles
Alright, let’s dive into the fun part! I’ve put together a list of 19 amazing hairstyles for your next country concert. We’re starting with some easy wins and working our way up to some show-stopping looks. Kicking things off is a classic that always works, making it a top choice for a reason. Get ready to find your perfect concert hair!
Simple Waves
Simple waves are a go-to for a reason. They just have that effortless, cool-girl look that fits right in at a country show. This style is perfect if you want something pretty but don’t want to spend hours getting ready. Just grab your curling iron or wand, add some loose waves, and you’re good to go. A little texturizing spray can help them last all night, even with a little dancing.
Half-Up Half-Down
The half-up half-down is so versatile! It works for pretty much any hair length and texture. I love this style because it keeps some hair out of your face while still letting you show off your length. You can make it fancy by adding a twist or a cute clip where the two sections meet. It’s a great balance of practicality and style.
Low Ponytail
Sometimes, simple is best. A low ponytail is super practical for keeping your hair tidy, but it doesn’t have to be boring. You can wrap a piece of hair around the elastic for a polished look or add some waves or texture to the ponytail itself. It’s effortlessly chic and lets your outfit and boots shine.
High Ponytail
If you plan on dancing the night away, a high ponytail is your friend! It keeps your hair securely out of the way and gives off a really energetic vibe. Make sure you use a strong elastic to keep it in place through all the singing and moving. A little backcombing at the crown before gathering your hair can add some height and drama.
Bubble Ponytail
Okay, the bubble ponytail is just plain fun! It’s a trendy take on a regular ponytail that adds a playful touch. You just secure your ponytail, then add elastics down the length, pulling the sections in between to create those “bubbles.” A little gentle pulling can make the bubbles look fuller and more dramatic.
Space Buns
Space buns are perfect if you want a cute, youthful look that keeps your hair completely off your neck. They’re great for warmer weather concerts! You can keep them neat and high or make them a little messier and lower. Adding some glitter spray or fun colored hair extensions wrapped around the base of the buns is a fun concert touch.
Twisted Half-Up
This is an elegant and simple option. Instead of braiding the top sections, you just twist them back and secure them. It’s super easy to do and looks really pretty from the back. Make sure you use bobby pins that match your hair color to hide them and keep the twists looking clean and secure.
Braided Half-Up
Adding a braid to your half-up style instantly gives it a touch of country charm. You can do a simple three-strand braid, a rope braid, or even a small fishtail braid. Pin it back cleanly, and you’ve got a lovely look. Pulling gently on the edges of the braid before pinning can make it look thicker and more noticeable.
Fishtail Braid
A fishtail braid looks really intricate, but it’s actually not that hard once you get the hang of it! It’s a beautiful alternative to a standard braid and has a lovely texture. If a full fishtail feels like too much, you could do a smaller accent fishtail braid within another style. After you finish braiding, gently pull on the sides of the braid to loosen it up and give it a softer, fuller appearance.
Side Braid
A side braid has a relaxed and romantic feel that’s perfect for a country concert. It keeps your hair mostly out of your face while still letting it flow over one shoulder. Try adding some volume at the crown before starting the braid to give the style more height and presence.
Crown Braid
Feeling a little regal? A crown braid is a beautiful way to keep your hair up and off your neck. It involves braiding sections of hair around your head, creating a halo effect. It takes a little practice, but the result is stunning. Use small bobby pins tucked underneath the braid to keep it securely in place all night long.
Boxer Braids
Boxer braids aren’t just for the gym! They’re perfect for a country concert because they are super secure and keep your hair completely contained. If you plan on doing a lot of dancing and moving, these are a fantastic option. Make sure you braid them tightly at the roots to ensure they stay neat throughout the show.
Accessorized Waves
Simple waves are great, but adding an accessory makes them concert-ready! A cute cowboy hat is a classic choice. You could also add a bandanna tied around your head or clip in some fun, sparkly hairpins. Think about the colors in your outfit and pick accessories that complement them for a cohesive look.
Accessorized Ponytail
Elevate your ponytail with the right accessory! A colorful scrunchie or a ribbon tied around the elastic can add a pop of personality. You could also wrap a scarf around the base of the ponytail for a bohemian touch. Matching your hair accessory to your boots or belt is a fun way to tie your look together.
Braids with Hat
Braids and hats are a match made in country heaven! A braid keeps your hair neat under your hat and looks great when you take it off. A side braid or a low braid works well. To help prevent dreaded hat hair, make sure your hair is completely dry before putting on your hat, and try not to wear it too tightly.
Voluminous Curls
When we talk about “big hair” at a country concert, voluminous curls come to mind! This look is all about height and body. Use large rollers or a big barrel curling iron to create loose, bouncy curls. A volumizing mousse applied to the roots before styling can help give you that lasting lift without making your hair feel stiff.
Braids with Volume
Combine the best of both worlds by adding volume to your braids! You can backcomb the roots before braiding for lift at the crown. Or, after you’ve braided, gently pull on sections of the braid to make it look thicker and fuller. A texturizing spray can also help add grip and volume to the hair before you start braiding.
Braids with Accessories
Adding accessories directly into your braids is a beautiful way to personalize your look. You could weave in some colorful ribbon, add small flowers, or even thread through some metallic string. Secure the accessories carefully within the braid as you go to make sure they stay in place while you’re enjoying the music.
The Ultimate Country Braid
Alright, for the top spot, I’m going with a big, slightly messy, side-swept braid with some added volume and a touch of sparkle. This style truly embodies Boots, Braids & Big Hair! Start by creating volume at your roots with some backcombing and texturizing spray. Then, gather your hair to one side and create a loose, full braid – a fishtail or a chunky three-strand works perfectly. Gently pull on the edges of the braid to make it even bigger and messier. Finally, add some subtle sparkle with clip-in rhinestones or a few glitter strands woven into the braid. This look is comfortable, stays put, and looks absolutely stunning under the concert lights!
