1. Give your hair team spirit
From face paint to foam fingers, finding your gameday style can be part of your fan identity. And nothing elevates your favorite jersey like a statement hairstyle! Try rocking your team’s signature colors in your hair with ribbon or hair paint. Experiment with hair-safe paint or colorful wax to show your team spirit or add a hair ribbon as the third strand in your braid. You could also secure a few strands of ribbon to a hair tie before putting your hair in a ponytail.
2. Try an ultimate fan hairstyle
Whether you're sitting courtside or couch-side, your hair can help your team spirit shine! Try the ultimate fan hairstyle while you're cheering on your favorite team during March Madness. Nothing screams superfan like the iconic mohawk. If you're not ready to commit to shaving your head, try out a fauxhawk. You can easily achieve this look at home by using a gel to style your hair to create a spike in the center of your head.
3. Find your perfect product line-up
We know a bad hair day won't stop a basketball superfan from missing out on March Madness activities! Find your combination of perfect products to lock in your hairstyle throughout even the longest games. When choosing your hair product lineup, think about your hair texture and desired style. Pomade is great for keeping frizz at bay, while gel can freeze your look in place for hours of watch time. Like the players on the court, be sure to add defense to your line up with our Thermal Protection Spray.
