Have you been looking for a cute new hairstyle? If you’re bored of wearing your hair down, consider a pulled back hairstyle!

Ballerina buns, braided half updos, and low romantic ponytails are all beautiful options when you need a new look that will keep your hair out of your face while still making you look fabulous. Face-framing tendrils soften square-shaped faces while buns and ponytails show off angles in the best way for oval and round faces.

Pulled Back Hairstyles

The hairstyles below are all easy to do, and there’s enough variety to complement any face shape. To feel like a model, try one of these 20 pulled-back hairstyles for women!

1. Slicked Back Braids

If you love the soft, romantic touch braids, add to a hairstyle, first comb back your hair before creating three or four medium-sized ones starting at your hairline. Then gather them together in a low half ponytail, leaving the rest of your hair long, loose, and straight.

2. High Wrapped Ponytail

We’re pretty sure Ariana Grande would approve of this extra high ponytail and all its sass! Just comb a little mousse in your hair before pulling it back in your high ponytail. Hide a plain hair tie by wrapping a section of hair around and over it.

3. Curly Half Updo

Never mind how beautiful this light shade of purple is. We love the half-up ponytail that features curly hair pulled back with lots of texture, helping its voluminous look—Tuck in a faux flower when you’re heading to a fancier occasion.

4. Short Hair Slicked Back

Are you rocking a short bob or a long pixie? Get this pulled back hairstyle just by using your fingers to slick your hair back with mousse. Of course, if you want a more perfected result, you can use a comb instead of fingers.

5. Messy Curly Bun

If you’re a woman blessed with long curly hair, let it be its wild and free self and embrace the texture in a messy bun secured at medium height. The key is in finger combing your hair back instead of using a comb! A few face-framing tendrils will help soften the look around your face.
