3 brilliant hairstyle ideas for under a ski helmet - Girls Edition

“If you have a brain, protect it!” - A saying that has fortunately long been taken for granted on our slopes. Nowadays, ski helmets also look really good, so you don't have to worry about compromising your style. To ensure that your hairstyle still looks perfect after wearing your helmet, I have 3 simple and tried-and-tested hairstyles for under your ski helmet that will still look great after an exciting day on the slopes and, of course, during après-ski.

Braid at the front

A hairstyle that really anyone can pull off is the plaited plait on the forehead. Simply section off the front part of the hair and braid it. If you're not so skilful at braiding, you can alternatively section off two strands, twist them around each other and secure them with a clip. This braid is particularly suitable if you have a hairstyle with fringes. The plait stays perfectly in place even under a ski helmet and ensures that your hairstyle still looks fresh when you're après-skiing. Super practical and beautiful too!

„The Greta“ – two braids

These braids have been on trend not just since the ‘Fridays for Future’ activist Greta Thunberg! A clear centre parting and then braid both sides along the ears - done! If you're particularly keen on style, you can choose scrunchies to match your ski outfit. This hairstyle is particularly suitable for longer hair, as it not only holds well under the helmet, but also looks absolutely great after skiing at après-ski. This ski hairstyle is practical and looks great at the same time.

Express: in a knot by your neck

Sometimes things have to happen quickly. A great option for days like these is a knot at the nape of the neck. Simply tie your hair together, leave it loose at the nape of your neck and then quickly twist it into a knot. It doesn't take a minute, fits perfectly under a helmet and looks great after an active day on the piste - both at après-ski and afterwards.

I advise against these hairstyles:
A high bun or a tight ponytail are unfortunately not a good idea under a helmet. On the one hand, they can pinch uncomfortably, and on the other hand, they often don't fit properly under the helmet, which greatly impairs wearing comfort.

Conclusion

With these three simple ski hairstyles, you can wear your ski helmet and still look good! Whether braided plaits, the plait at the nape of the neck or the classic - the plaited plait on the forehead: all of these hairstyles are practical, keep your look beautiful all day long and are the perfect eye-catcher, especially at après-ski.
