Continuing with our Active August theme, we are taking a look at the best hairstyles fit for the gym and everywhere in between.

With our hectic lifestyles taking us from our beds to the gym, to the office, to lunch, back to the office, out to dinner and back to bed, it seems we are becoming robots of the ‘Eat, Sleep, Work(out), Repeat’ routine with Monday to Friday simply becoming a blur.

Here are five hairstyles to make you look chic whilst you take on the challenges of juggling your daily drill.

Topsey Tail Braid

By transforming the 90’s trend of the topsy tail, you are bringing a chic new look to the table. Topsey tail multiple times for the ultimate braid.

Pony Tail with a Poof

A classic with a twist – get yourself a few extra hair elastics for this style. Start with a basic high pony, and add bands equally spaced down the tail. Once tightly secured, gently pull the center of each section of hair to create a poof.

Ballet Bun

With any form of Ballet being the sport of choice right now, the bun is the perfect quick and easy hair trend to replicate. Scoop your hair into a high pony today and simply twist your bun around. Use hair pins or clips to secure them into place. Gently pull a few strands of hair out of the style for a natural, loose look.

French Braids

A favorite look of Kim Kardashian, this is a cutesy yet practical hairstyle. Separate your hair down the center with a comb and french braid each side.

French Braided Pony Tail

Begin plaiting your hair as you would a french plait. Ensure you scoop upwards from the underneath. When you reach a natural point to begin the ponytail, secure with an elastic band. Once tightly secured, continue with basic braid.
