Students enjoy those days at school when they are encouraged to deviate from the normal routines with events such as pajama day. When your girl has a crazy hair day theme for school help her pick a style for her locks. From styles that stand straight up on her head to those that twist and turn, the only limit to this project is your own creativity.
Idea Behind Crazy Hair Days
Crazy hair days are generally accompanied by a "Wacky Tacky" theme or another let-loose idea for students. These days are generally associated with end-of-the-year activities or special days that give students a break from focusing on their studies to be a little zany at school. These days are meant to be a departure from the decorum and order they are generally expected to abide by on school property.
Possible Styling Products
Generally, to accomplish crazy hair styles for this special school day, girls may need to use a variety of products and styling tools. Gel is an all-purpose product to use for crazy hair because it holds all types of hair in place similar to hair spray but with longer lasting results. For hair that is slightly curly to create that zany look use mousse. Styling tools include blow-dryers to create frizzy and wild styles, while curling irons create curls for a haphazard girls hairstyle.
Style Examples
Good examples of crazy hair day styles include straight spikes, a faux Mohawk and half up, half down style. To get the half up, half down look, part hair in half horizontally and put the left side of the hair in a loose ponytail with pieces half hanging out of it. Leave the other half hanging down slightly tangled with a few barrettes half hanging off the ends. For straight spikes, part hair into three to four pieces from top to bottom. Twist into a bun and leave a piece out -- about 1.5 inches long -- at the end of the each bun. Use an ultra-stiff hair gel on each remaining piece in place until it's standing straight up. For a faux Mohawk, part hair into 1-inch sections and braid up to the top of the head and secure with a small rubber band with about one-half inch to one inch of hair left at the top. Repeat the braiding process from the front to back until the entire head of hair is braided and a faux Mohawk at the top is the result.
Styling Considerations
While creativity is certainly a big part of styling hair for crazy hair day at school, it is important not to do anything to it that cannot be undone at the end of the day. Don't use permanent hair dye to accomplish any style and avoid pulling the hair too tight for any one look, either as this puts stress on the hair roots. Wash hair out immediately after school and be sure to get all of the gel and other products out to avoid buildup on the hair shafts.
