Space Buns:

I absolutely love space buns to complement any festival look. It’s the iconic rave hair- a staple in the dance music space for an obviously good reason! Space buns are easy, stylish, and keeps your hair out of your face as the night rages on. There’s a variety of ways these can be done, too.
Festival Hair Tip: To make her buns more voluptuous, my girlfriend purchased these messy bun scrunchies and dyed them red to match her outfit!

Why not combine beautiful festival braids with epic space buns? And then add some glitter to boot! I’m thinking heck yes!
FYI: My favorite color is glitter 🙂

Another temporary hair color idea for festivals is hair chalk. It can very easily be applied to blonde/light brown hair to add a pop of color to any rave hair look. Be aware that it doesn’t show up very well on dark brown to black hair.

If you’re someone with dark hair or you’re just not feeling up to dying your hair, a wig is a great alternative! Wigs are very versatile, super easy to put on, and you can literally have a different look for each night of the festival!
Festival Hair Tip: You can complete this look with some really cool blacklight body paint!
Bohemian Vibes:

Bohemian fashion has been around for decades and personally, it’s my favorite style to rock in my day-to-day attire. But at music festivals, this style is on full display. You’ll see flowy skirts, crochet tops, and all the bling and accessories. One iconic boho look is one with a beautiful floral crown to compliment those festival hair waves.

A flawless boho festival look is just some nice, loose beach waves. This look was perfect for the second night of EDC because my hair was unwashed. A little dirt makes the waves more dynamic!

Nothing like a cute fedora to compliment a festival look. And helps block the sun from your face! And with fedoras, you can choose to wear your hair up or leave it down. Either way, it looks good!
