11 Amazing Yara Shahidi Hairstyles
1. Box Braid
The go-to style for any day or occasion is a sophisticated box braid. However, the beads enhance the design and the short length gives it a new vibe. Even while you can look amazing with just your natural hair, you can prolong its lifespan by adding braids or hair extensions.
Divide your hair into squares first, and if necessary, braid it to your jaw using your hair extensions. You can either go for something longer or stop there. Whatever you decide.
If you have short type 4c hair, try to blow dry, and stretched your hair, fulling moistured the hair before braiding, which will help you to get a smooth braiding.
2. Slick Back
Slick back a hairdo that became viral on the internet thanks to its sophisticated and fashionable elements. The best part is that it only takes a few simple steps to accomplish.
Create a side part, if desired, and then mist a brush with holding spray, much like Yara did. Put your hair in a low ponytail and use it to smooth it to the back. After they are slicked, twist your hair into a low bun like Yara or tie it with a hair band and add a ponytail extension.
3. Middle Part Curls
Lovely would be the word to describe the middle part curls hairstyle on Yara. While she's slaying a usual middle-part hairstyle here, those curls are popping.
You can add a braid in the middle to the style for an elevated look. You'll love it. If it's not your liking, slay the middle part curls hairstyle as Yara did in the picture above. It's simple, and quick to achieve but an elegant hairstyle you can wear for any occasion.
4. Twisted Updo
Use the twisted updo to achieve a chic look. This haircut elevates your image and is ideal for formal occasions like weddings.
By choosing the updo, Yara here contributed a composed personality. She was certainly not disappointed. It made her choice of earrings classy and went well with her clothes. You can decide to go for something close or try to get the exact same look. The result will make you proud.
5. Sleek Ponytail
Sleek ponytails work anytime. They are simple and make it easy to style a ‘not too formal or casual’ hairstyle. But here, Yara wasn't playing with hers. The ponytail is voluminous, and full, giving her a bold look.
To achieve this style, get long, kinky straight extensions. Then, sleek your hair to the back using a holding spray or a gel. Attach the ponytail hair extension and secure it with elastic band and wrap one piece of hair to cover the elastic band. It's simple and won't take up to an hour to style.
6. Knot Bun
Who doesn't love a stress-free yet fashionable hairstyle? It's one of the easiest hairstyles you can achieve yet you'll enjoy the glam it brings to your look. A whole new vibe that changes your appearance and makes you look gorgeous.
So, if you are ready, pull your hair into a high ponytail, and let's get you set. Once your hair is in a ponytail, divide it into two and wrap it around each other. Pin your knot to stay in place, and that’s all.
7. Double Fishtail Braids
We adore Yara's appearance. On her, it's gorgeous and very fashionable. Therefore, use the double fishtail braids if you want to show off your bold, new side. It can make you appear more put together.
First, divide your hair into two sections, then use the fishtail braid technique to braid each portion. For a good finish, smooth the sides of the braid and your edges once both sides have been braided.
8. Braided Bangs with Bun
Many women have replicated this look and it's worth the hype! The look added braids and a bun, giving you a different and unique vibe. While the bun is simple, the braided bangs change the look.
First, part your bangs out while you pack the rest of your bun up. Now, move to the bangs again and braid each around your face. Add beads to the braids and fold two middle braids upwards. Make sure it looks chic with the beads so you can slay your look.
9. Yara’s Special Bantu Knots
Until you see Yara's haircut, you won't believe that bantu knots can be turned into art. The look is amazing, and the actor collaborated with hairstylist SherriAnn Cole on it.
This hairstyle is stylish and gorgeous, from the knots that deviate from the conventional ones we are familiar with to the face-framing elements it incorporates. Therefore, you want to go for more texture in the style and go for a "unfinished" vibe rather than following the Bantu knot styling guidelines.
10. Space Buns
Do not stop with the regular space buns. Add a little spice like Yara did, then you'll see it will make a difference. You can use some clips to spice the buns or any accessory you like.
For the space buns, it's easy to achieve. Divide your hair into two parts. Brush each of them into a ponytail and tie them in place. Next, braid them with extensions and roll them to form the buns. That's all you have to do. You can sleek your hair further and be sure no strand is flying around.
11. Twisted Crown with Pigtails
This look has to be one of our favorite Yara Shahidi looks and let's tell you why. It's the accessories. But not one accessory is there. Well, the braid crown passes off as one.
It's chic, different, and elegant. While it makes such a unique style, the braid crown further elevates the pigtails, making them special and complementing them perfectly.
Here’s how to style the look:
- Divide your hair into two parts. Tie each section to give you ponytails.
- Now, add a lot of hair extensions to one of your pigtails, remove a part of it, and twist the rest. Hold the ends of the ponytail with a hair elastic.
- Now, twist the extension you left out and move it across your hair to the other side of the ponytail.
- Add extensions to this pigtail as well and twist to the end. Hold with a hair elastic to keep it secured.
