Festival season is here and to kickoff the long awaited Coachella weekend we are rounding up the top festival hairstyles you’ll be seeing all over your feed! Last year, we saw a surge in minimalistic festival fashion like Hailey Biebers baby braids and effortless eyeshadow colors. Trending on this years radar, we are expecting to see bright colors and maximalist energy. Color blocking, sequins and even cowboy boots will all be spotted at this years Coachella! Although you may have your outfits ready, have you perfected your hairstyles? Let’s round-up our favorite trending hairstyles that you can achieve with Luxy Hair to give you all the festival inspo.
Half up half down Pigtails
Coming in strong as the most versatile hairstyle that’s a festival favorite is the famous half up half down pigtails. One of our favorite looks for festivals because of the many options it gives. We love adding in our 16″ or 20″ Seamless Extensions to this hairstyle to give extra length and fullness. Using this style as a base and adding different elements to it with braids, buns, and tinsel extensions makes it a top choice for festival goers. We love pairing half up half down pigtails with braids for festivals as it’s the perfect combo of fun and practical. You can also try half up half down space buns. To achieve this, divide your hair into two sections and tie them into buns on either side of your head. Curl your remaining hair into loose waves and add Clip-in Tinsel for a pop of color! You can also try adding glitter or 2 single wefts from our Peekaboo Halo kit to make it more festive.
Inches & Inches
Although Hailey Bieber’s bob may be taking over your feed, long hair is in for festival season. Long locks made their way back on our radar a few summers ago but have stayed trending on some familiar faces. Kim Kardashian, Beyonce, Kylie Jenner and so many others are strutting longer locks for big events. Try pairing our Classic 24” Clip-in Extensions with a beachy wave for the perfect festival hairstyle. To take this style up a level add baby braids to your front pieces or half up half down pigtails.
If you’re worried about keeping your style all day try adding our 20” Clip-In Ponytail to your hairstyle look to keep it all together and still give all the looks needed for your feed!
Bows
Plié into the ballet-core trend this festival season! Bows have been spotted on major celebs like Madison Beer and many others. Cottage-core chic meets spring vibes bows can be the perfect accessory for spring festivals if you’re looking for a feminine soft look! We love how Justine Marjan paired bows with the 90’s inspired Pam Anderson updo here on Madison Beer. If cottage-core chic isn’t your thing, try adding small ribbon accents into braids, around buns and the base of your Clip-in Ponytail Extension for some extra dimension! We recommend using bright colors like neon pinks, orange and even green to really make it pop.
Braids
Braids are undoubtedly the most popular festival hairstyle as they can keep your hair neat and stylish while serving looks for your TikTok. With so many different styles of braids (Fishtail braids, French braids, or Box braids etc.) mixing braids into other styles or using them on their own is the perfect look for all your upcoming festivals. While braids are not a new hairstyle they are always a staple to wear for more than just festival season. To achieve a festival-ready look we recommend using our 24” Classic Clip-in Extensions and hair tinsel! Braid the tinsel into your extensions for an extra bit of glitter and fun!

Y2K
Y2K style is making its way through social media and it’s becoming the biggest trend this year. Think Avril Lavigne meets Paris Hilton’s style circa early 2000’s. Juicy Couture tracksuits, bedazzled hair and colored highlights are all back on the scene and we are here for it! This festival season be on the lookout for familiar trends you may have once worn in your middle school years. If you want to achieve the perfect Y2K vibe without any serious commitment try adding colorful hair extensions in a subtle way for the perfect color pop!
