10. Short Cotton Candy Hair

If you’re a fan of short hairstyles, you can rock a short cotton candy hairstyle in pastel pink, purple, and other soft shades.

Mint cotton candy ringlet curls are one of the yummyest hairstyles ever! Bouncy ringlet curls are almost every woman’s dream hairstyle and if you weren’t that lucky to have naturally curly hair, you can rely on foam rollers for no-heat curls!

To create Dutch braids, you’ll need to cross the left strand under the middle strand, and then cross the right strand under the new middle strand. French braids cross over and Dutch braids cross under. (The more you know.)

17. Pastel Pink And Purple Waves

If I had to describe this hairstyle in four words, they would be: sweet, feminine, soft, and breathtaking! Pastel pink and purple shades are a match made in heaven if you want to achieve a romantic, playful look. To create soft waves, wrap the sections of your hair around the curling iron. When done, go through your curls with a soft bristle brush. Enjoy your new style!

18. Rainbow Braided Crown

Braided crowns are one of the most protective braided hairstyles, so it’s no wonder they’re gaining more and more popularity as of late. Now, if you want to step up your braided crown game (and leave everyone speechless), opt for a rainbow braided crown with (or without) a bun.

19. Light Blue And Pink Half-Up Ponytail

If you have thin hair, half-up ponytails will make your hairstyle look more voluminous. A unique hairstyle like a light blue and pink half-up ponytail will earn you the title of the coolest gal on the block. Cotton candy vibes are always in style!

Seldom hairstyles look so cute and effortless like cotton candy top knot! You can rock this cool hairstyle for any occasion from formal to casual. Warning: Prepare to be the center of attention everywhere you go.
