5 classic silicon-free hairstyles you need to try
What's the story
Choosing a stylish yet practical hairstyle can be tough, especially when you're trying to avoid silicon-based products. Silicon-free hairstyles give you the natural look without the buildup that weighs down your hair. These styles are versatile, easily maintainable, and apt for different hair types. Be it straight, wavy, or curly, there are styles that can make you look pretty while keeping your hair healthy and vibrant.
Simple style
Classic ponytail with a twist
The classic ponytail is an evergreen choice for everyday wear. However, to add a modern twist, you can consider incorporating braids or twists into the ponytail. This way, you keep hair off the face while adding texture and interest. It works well with all hair lengths and textures. Use a fabric-covered elastic to secure the ponytail without causing damage or breakage.
Natural waves
Effortless beach waves
Beach waves give that effortlessly chic look, perfect for any occasion. You can get this style by braiding damp hair overnight, or using a heat-free wave spray on dry hair. This technique enhances natural curls without the use of silicon-based products. The end result is soft waves that make your hairstyle voluminous and give it movement.
Elegant updo
Sleek low bun
A sleek low bun provides you with sophistication without any effort. This hairstyle is ideal for work or a casual outing as well. Just gather your hair at nape of your neck and twist it into a bun, securing it with the help of bobby pins or a soft elastic band. For an extra shine without silicon, apply some natural oil like argan oil.
Trendy look
Half-up top knot
Half-up top knot marries practicality with trendiness by keeping some of your locks free while securing others in place. Just knot up the top section of your hair at the crown of your head leaving the rest loose around shoulders—perfect for those who want both structure and freedom in their daily look.
Relaxed style
Loose braids for casual days
Loose braids give that easygoing vibe, ideal for casual days out or relaxed weekends at home. They demand little to no maintenance but give maximum impact, visually speaking. Start by loosely weaving sections together, from either side, before tying them off gently using soft elastics. This ensures comfort throughout wear time, too!
