Overview Of Concert Hairstyles

Concert hairstyles are a perfect blend of comfort and style. You will dance and hop a lot with the loud music there. Therefore, an edgy hairstyle that will stay in place without looking untidy is appropriate. Read on to find which hairstyles look great in concerts.

• Braid: This hairstyle is ideal if you wish for a clean hair look. It holds your locks away from your face. This style saves you from feeling sweaty and hot in the neck. You can do the plain old, three-strand braids or opt for stylish cornrows, bubble braids, or fishtails.
• Updo: Tight and messy buns look classy and stylish. These hairstyles look chic and complement a wide variety of outfits. Whether you are wearing a short dress or a comfy shirt, updos look cute and stylish.
• Pixie Cut: High-energy concerts will drive you to twirl the whole time. The buzzing music and brilliant performances will leave you jumping and cheering. So, you will sweat a lot and cool pixie hairstyles can be practical in this scenario. Highlight your tresses with funky colors to blend in and stand out from the crowd.
• Ponytail: This style is everyone’s favorite. Whether tied in a sleek way or secured messily to achieve a tousled look, ponytails add flair to your outfit.

According to Licensed hairstylist, Jessica Shults, “Concert hair isn’t just about style; it’s about strategic styling for endurance. Focus on prepping with heat protection and texture-building products to create a solid base. The goal is achieving volume and hold to withstand hours of movement, humidity, and sweat. Finishing with a humidity-resistant hairspray or anti-frizz serum ensures the look stays fresh and polished, no matter how wild the night gets.”

You may add your twist to these hairstyles to make them more concert-appropriate. Either adorn the hair with sparkly beads or enhance its shine with colorful glitter. In the next section, we will take you through 8 stunning hairstyles ideal for concerts.

Top 8 Concert Hairstyle Ideas

From funky spaced buns with glittery roots to neat top buns with braided crowns – we have a plethora of hairstyle ideas that you can wear to concerts. Scroll down to find your style.

1. Braid Concert Hairstyle

This dramatic hairstyle features two braided pigtails wrapped with colorful Kanekalon strands. The intricate lengthy braids keep your hair tucked away from your face, allowing you the freedom to dance without being bothered by stray hair. This bold look aligns with the current trends. Wear off-shoulder outfits to highlight the braids cascading over your shoulder. This style is ideal for both medium-length hair and long hair.

2. Rock Concert Hairstyle

This cool, cropped hairstyle looks stunning on all kinds of face shapes. The half-light-blonde, half-dark-blonde hair offers an edgy look. To make the style even more concert-appropriate, spray some glitter on the sides of your head. Apply dark red lipstick to create a statement. Last thing, if you want to go all out, color your eyebrows blonde to match your hair’s aesthetics.

3. Medium-Length Hair Concert Hairstyle

This dazzling hairstyle matches the lively vibe of concerts. It features two braids that start at the front and are secured at the back as braided crowns. The small section of hair, falling on the face as locks, offers a chic look. The bright blue glitters, sprayed on the roots, take the hair’s look up a notch. This look can go well with both nude and dewy makeup looks. However, if you want to really go all out, match your eyeshadow shade with the glitter.

4. Concert Hairstyle For Long Hair

Colored hair looks are the best way to showcase your fiery spirit in concerts. Add styles to it by braiding portions of it and letting loose the rest. The model above has one fishtail braid in the middle adorned with two regular twisted braids on the sides. Anyone with a groovy personality can sport this style and create a statement. The seamless blend of colors looks striking and matches the colorful aura of concerts. Go for nude-toned outfits to keep the focus on this vibrant hairstyle.

5. Short Hair Concert Hairstyle

A curly bob hairstyle is everyone’s favorite. If you have a super short haircut, go for this messy look. Use a mini curler to curl your tresses. Or, if you want to avoid heat styling, dampen your hair and scrunch it lightly to achieve a naturally curly look. Keep your makeup fresh but go bold on your lips. This hairstyle looks flattering on round faces the most.

6. Band Concert Hairstyle

This cool hairstyle gives off 90s retro vibes. It features two tight buns on either side of the head. The thin braids at the front offer a funky appeal and highlight your carefree concert spirit. The violet bow headband is a nice touch to this style. This offbeat style is ideal for teenagers. Even adults can sport it to disclose their quirky side. Oversized tops with slim-fitted pants will go well with this hairstyle.

7. Orchestra Concert Hairstyle

People attend orchestra concerts dressed in formal attires and sport sleek hairstyles like the one shown in the picture. This classic hair updo, wrapped with a braid looks elegant and chic at the same time. Wear a simple pearl neckpiece and earrings to match the serene aesthetic of this clean hairdo. Accessorize by adding a few silver pins to the bun.

8. Fun Concert Hairstyle

This one features multiple cornrows gathered together in a ponytail. The golden Kanekalon strands wrapped around a few braids add a pop of color and bring the sense of celebration alive. Use a good-quality elastic band to secure the cornrows snugly so that the pony stays intact throughout the event. Pair this style with a fresh, dewy makeup look. Use golden eyeshadow to match the vibe of your hair.
