Figure Skating Hair

I usually tie my hair in a tight bun with a scrunchy to add color and style(:

Naturally curly hair ways.

I always have little bits of hair that are way shorter than the rest of my hair. I usually just but my hair up in a ponytail or french braid and then pull out the short pieces. with the humidity in the rink, it curls in no time. (this only works if you have curly hair, if your hair is straight you might want to curl it and then add strong hairspray)

Figure skaiting hairdo's

I think a sparkly or silver color scrunchie in a pony-tail is good, also a bun is great. Have a hair accessory to match your costume like a colored barrette, clip, flower, or band.

Hair? So Easy To Decide!

Just put your hair up in a nice bun! Make sure to maybe add glitter or hair accesories that really stand out! You shouldn't wear your hair down because it could get in your face while you skate. Also, hair being up while figure skating is probably required.

Suggestion for Figure Skating Hairdo

Put your hair into a nice ponytail. Then leave thin strips of hair down and curl those and the the ponytail. Put on a bow. To top it off put in glitter!

How to wear your hair

Not too long ago, I had hair past my waistline. My Mom always put my hair in a ponytail, then braided it, and then wrapped it into a bun. We used curler bobby pins (long pins); that way my bun stayed tight! Now I have mid-lenghth hair and I wear it in a ponytail with a pretty scrunchie.
