MLB Game Day Hair Essentials

Baseball Game Hairstyles by Hair Length
Here are some of our ultimate baseball game hairstyles for short, medium, and long hair.
Short Hair
Short hair is the ideal length for fun and cute game day hairstyles. While this length can be a little trickier to tie into an up-do, accessories like hair clips and hair ties can still create a playful look.
Style 1: Sleek Side Part
Keep it classy and controlled with a deep side part. Using the end of a comb, separate your hair into two sections by parting it to one side of your head. The comb will help make a neat and straight parting, giving this style a super sleek look.
Once you’ve created your side part, use our snap hair clips to pin back sections away from your face and keep your hair out of your eyes.
Style 2: Mini Braids
Small face-framing braids are a great way to add texture and fun to short hairstyles for baseball games. Think à la Olivio Rodrigo!
Simply section off small pieces of hair around your face and plait them so that they fall in mini face-framing braids. To keep everything in place, secure your braids with our tiny hair ties—the perfect choice for shorter hair!
You can keep the rest of your hair down or slick it back into a ponytail while leaving the braids out to frame your face. Either way works! Both styles will keep your locks out of your face for the duration of the game.
Medium Hair
With medium hair, the options for cute hairstyles for a baseball game are pretty endless. Fun braided pigtails or a sleek low bun are two of our all-time favorite styles for this length of hair.
Style 1: Braided Pigtails
A sporty, flirty favorite—is there anything more fun than braided pigtails? We don’t think so.
First, create a middle parting. Then, take one side and divide it into three sections. Weave the three sections together into a braid, but stop halfway down (rather than braiding to the ends of your hair).
Next, secure the end of the braided section with one of our small hair ties, leaving the rest of the hair in a pigtail. Repeat on the other side of your head, and that’s all there is to it!
This fun, relaxed sporty style is perfect for game day when you have medium-length hair. For a more in-depth tutorial, get inspired by our blog post: Braided Pigtails: A Classic Summer Hairstyle
Style 2: Low Bun
This style leads the way in both elegance and efficiency. And what’s more, it’s one of the best hairstyles if you're sporting a baseball cap. We’d call that a win-win!
To style your hair in a low bun, use a hairbrush to gather it together at the nape of your neck, before twisting it around into a bun shape. If you’re looking for an extra sleek style, use some hair oil or spray to slick your tresses back and smooth down any flyaways as you pull your hair into the bun.
Our silk scrunchies or flat claw clips are a fuss-free and stylish way to secure your low bun. Plus, they’re both gentle on your hair and super comfy to wear all day. In fact, we’ll bet you’ll wear them through your post-game nap too!
If you’re looking for a slightly stronger hold, our classic medium claw clips are another great choice. It all depends on the look and feel you’re going for with your medium-length hairstyle.
Long Hair
Long hair gives you tons of flexibility with game day hairstyles, but it can also be tricky to keep out of your face through all the excitement. Here are a couple of our favorite long hair baseball game hairstyles.
Style 1: High Ponytail
Classic, clean, and made to stay put. Pulling your long hair into a high ponytail is one of the easiest and fuss-free options for game day hair, while also keeping you looking super stylish.
Once you’ve brushed your hair into a high pony and secured it with a hair tie, why not add extra longevity to the style by anchoring your pony with one of our large hair clips?
Style 2: Half-Up, Half-Down
Half-up, half-down styles are one of our firm favorites. A breezy, cute style that’s always selfie-ready, this look is the ultimate game-day staple. For a modern twist, why not opt for one of our tiny open claw clips in a fun pattern or print?

The Best Baseball Hat Hairstyles
What’s baseball without the cap? Iconic to the sport, baseball caps are worn by both players and spectators alike.
But what’s the easiest way to style your hair underneath your trusty hat? Here are two of our favorite baseball cap hairstyles to inspire you.
Low Ponytail
The low ponytail is effortless and ideal for tucking through the back of a baseball cap. To add a little something special to this style, why not secure it with one of our silk scrunchies? This pretty accessory is perfect for adding elegance to this trusty baseball cap hairstyle.
Side Braid
Functional with a touch of flair, a side braid is a great baseball hat hairstyle that holds up through long games and doubleheaders. Simply gather all your hair to one side of your head, weave it into a single large braid, and secure with one of our hair ties.
Final Touches and Tips
One of our biggest tips for baseball game hairstyles is to always pack a few extra hair ties and clips in your bag. Trust us, you’ll be glad you did when your hair needs a quick fix or touch-up midway through the game!
It’s also a good idea to consider the weather forecast when choosing your hairstyle for the next big game. Looking windy outside? Claw clips reign supreme for super-secure hairstyles. Set to be a humid day? It’s probably best to opt for braids or buns.
