Cheerleader hairstyles can include a braid or ponytail.
Cheerleaders move around a great deal during their routines - often as much as the players on the field. Because of this, not all hairstyles will work well for the sport. Cheerleaders with both long and short hair may struggle to keep it out of their faces and eyes as they perform routines. However, several cheerleading hairstyle ideas can help solve these problems.
Ponytails
Ponytails are a classic cheerleader look and provide a feminine style while keeping your hair out of your face as you move around. However, because they are so common, it can be difficult to create a unique look with a ponytail. By combining the ponytail with a series of small braids that feed into it or by making two low ponytails, one on either side, you can create a more distinctive look that serves the same purpose as the classic ponytail.
Braids
Braids have the advantage over ponytails in that they are less likely to come loose, less popular and therefore more unique. However, they do take more workt. To produce the perfect braid, start braiding at the crown of your head and work down. As with ponytails, you can create two braids for a different look, or even French braid your hair for a woven look.
Half Up, Half Down
In this hairstyle, the top of the hair is pulled up, usually into a barrette, a hair elastic, or a bobby pin, while the rest is worn down. This hairstyle has the advantage of allowing you to preserve the feminine look of having your hair down, while preventing most of it from getting in your eyes. The key is to make sure the top of your hair is pulled back smoothly; use a brush or a comb to do so, and secure it with a spritz of hairspray.
All Down
Though cheerleaders may get hair in their eyes when they wear their hair all down, it is possible, especially if the hair is short. To make the hairstyle more manageable, it is best to pin at least some of it back with barrettes or bobby pins; in the absence of these, hair may fly everywhere and create a hazard not only for the cheerleader, but for others on her squad.
