As we pull out our favorite winter beanies and hats, we mentally prepare ourselves for the messy and tangled locks, split ends, and greasy roots that are just around the corner. So, here we go again with the age-old dilemma: how to deal with winter hat hair to stay warm and stylish?

Luckily, all those hair lovers on the web won’t leave you stranded this winter. Braids, ponytails, and messy buns are waiting to make a statement under your winter hat. Here are five absolute best hat hairstyles for your next winter walk.

We all love curly hairstyles. They’re beautiful and easy to manage for both short and long hair. But when the hat comes into play, all those luscious wavy locks around your face turn into clumsy wings. Try curling your front locks towards your face (yes, you heard that right) so that they blend in perfectly with the rest of your hair. If you’re not sure whether to join #teamwing or #teamnowing—that is, curling outward or inward—try both options to find the one that suits you best.

Take your beanie hairstyle to the next level with trendy bubble braids to control frizz and show off your styling skills. Create two simple pigtails and tie clear elastics at a similar distance into your hair. Then, gently pull the strands out for a bubble look. Add your favorite beanie and you’re good to go. You’re ready to rock a snowy slope!
