Whether you’re looking for the best look to rock on the farm or ranch or you simply want to embody a cowgirl look anytime, then you’ve come to the right place. Cowgirl hairstyles should reflect the lifestyle that comes with the territory. Every cowgirl needs styles that both protect their hair during physical activity and dresses up necessary accessories like hats.

We’ve got inspiring styles for hair that is short, long, or somewhere in between. Our looks will show you how to complement brooches, scarves, hats, braids, and beyond. Check out our top 21 ultimate cowgirl hairstyles.

1. Long Pixie Cut

Opt for a sassy look by chopping the hair into a long layered pixie with the longest front strands falling on the face as a side-swept fringe. A pixie haircut is easy to maintain and looks amazing both on light and dark hair.

2. Dutch Braids

Dutch-style braids have stood the test of time and are ideal for achieving cowgirl aesthetic. This style features long dark brown hair with a blonde ombre that is intertwined into braids while incorporating black extensions along the length for a three-toned look.

3. Highlighted Curls

Black girls can take part in the cowgirl hairstyle trend too by layering their kinky curls to frame the face while adding caramel blonde highlights midway to the ends. This hairstyle will give any girl a fun and lively appeal.

4. Senegalese Twist Cornrows

Another hairstyle for black ladies is these Senegalese twist cornrows that can be kept for some days. The hair is sectioned and twisted while adding black hair extensions that enable you to go as long as you want. Leave the twists loose or style them in a high ponytail.

5. Barely-There Ombre

This look is perfect for ladies with fine-textured curly hair. The dirty blonde top lightens into a sandy blonde hue creating a subtle ombre effect that just looks natural. Carry the medium-length curls loose with a side parting and hand-tousle them for a ruffled appeal.
