CHRIS MCMILLAN Last Update: June 11, 2024

Having a trendy, quick and easy hairstyle for school is essential, as we all remember from our own schooldays. It must be totally up-to-date, but also simple enough to re-do after a fast game of netball or tennis leaves you hot and messy, as you head for the showers.

The most popular hair length for girls is still long, and the style casual, but bob cuts are gaining ground this season, especially the angled bob and the super-cool asymmetric fringe!

Fresh, modern and practical

So how do you keep your long hair looking fresh, modern and in place throughout the day? Here’s some useful style and cut advice and a gallery of inspirational pictures, to keep you up-to-the minute with the latest quick and easy hairstyles for school!

Blunt cuts

The best way to fulfil all of the requirements above is to use the cut at the ends of your hair to show the latest hair fashion. For example, you can get the ends cut in a blunt, straight line and this will give you a strong look, which can be useful if you want to make a round face look slimmer.

Choppy and edgy

Or if you like to be the trend-setter amongst your school pals why not wear your hair in edgy, choppy layers, which are probably the opposite of the pretty-girl look your mother wants you to wear!

Not sure if you want to go choppy all-over? Try a choppy fringe for a start and ask the stylist to leave it with an uneven finish at the tips.

Face framing short strands

Or no matter how long your hair is, you can always have some shorter layers cut to frame your face in a very attractive twist. Side layers can have heavily textured tips that are tapered and sharp, if your hair is thick or coarse. And on fine hair, textured tips can be used to make a pretty, wispy and romantic look.

Updo’s

Updo’s have always been popular for quick and easy styles for school and some schools insist that girls tie their hair back in some way to look neat. However, you can choose lots of different styles to echo what’s hot in hair fashion now.
