Leaving just your edges out

Sometimes this can act as a protective style by keeping most of your hair tucked under and just leaving the edges to see.

Tousled braids are adorable and they look best now women with full, thick hair; if you have thin hair, this may not work for you.

Beach wave style for women who can’t get enough of that look even in winter. Again this is not suitable for women with thin hair.
Beanie Over Natural Twists

Twist out, low maintenance style, and the beanie keeps the style protected. You may have to retwist every other night to keep the style looking fresh.

Pigtail

Having the pigtail at the back is cute and also protect the ends of the hair in a real icy climate. So if you have to go outdoors during snowy days, this is an easy hairstyle idea for school with a beanie.

How to put on a beanie without messing up your hair?
Choose the Right Size
Go for a snug, well-fitted beanie to keep you warm without covering too much of your face. Avoid overly tight beanies that can feel uncomfortable or leave marks.
Experiment with Different Styles
Try different ways to wear it – slouchy at the back for a relaxed look or cuffed above the ears for a classic vibe. The folded brim style adds warmth to your forehead and gives a clean appearance.
Match with Your Outfit
Pick a beanie color that complements or contrasts your winter outfits. Neutrals like black, gray, or beige are versatile, while bold colors or patterns can add a playful touch.
Layer Your Hair
Beanies can flatten your hair, so add a little volume by styling your hair before putting it on. A loose, low bun or waves work well under a beanie. Do not use hair-fixing products.
Add Accessories
If you’re feeling festive, try adding a small brooch or pin to the side of your beanie for a unique touch. It’s an easy way to make your beanie stand out while keeping you cozy!
