Festival season [1] is upon us, so put your records on, you go ahead, let your hair down — or tie it up into a ponytail brushed back with glittery gel, accessorise a top knot with temporary hair tattoos or rhinestone hair stickers, or weave rainbow hues into your braids with synthetic hair, yarn, or tinsel extensions.

Whether you're going for a hippie-chic vibe while camping out at Reading or an out-of-this-world look [2] in the desert at Coachella, you need a hairstyle that will hold all weekend long. Ahead, we've rounded up our favourite festival hairstyles, guaranteed to make you wanna whip your hair back and forth.
