Since curtain bangs took over social media, middle parting hairstyles have been trending. They are a great way to frame your face while also complementing its symmetry and structure. If you haven’t already jumped on the bandwagon, maybe now is the time to do so. Here is some middle parting hairstyle inspiration for you to elevate your hair game.
1. Space buns
If you aren’t the biggest fan of your hair falling over your face, then space buns will work well for you. To get the look, part your hair from the middle and tie it into two ponytails. Now, wrap your hair around the base of your ponytail and secure it in place with hair ties.

2. Waterfall braids
Here’s how to get the hairstyle that gives off undisputable princess vibes: Start with parting your hair from the middle and take two sections of hair to cross over each other. Keep adding newer sections of hair and braid them away from your face. Once you have reached the bottom, secure it with a hair tie and hide it behind your hair with a bobby pin. Repeat the same on the other side.

3. Accessorise your locks
Amp up your locks with some beads. Part the front section of your hair from the middle and apply some hair gel or mousse for a sleek appearance. Stick beads or pearls on the sleek portion of your hair. Use a volumising spray on the rest of your hair to add some volume and texture and you’re all set to dazzle.

4. Tight bun
Running late? A tight bun is a chic and easy way to look put together in a jiffy. Start by middle parting only the front of your hair. Twist the ponytail tightly, coil the twisted hair around the base, and secure with a hair tie. Smooth out any loose strands for a polished finish.

5. Crown braid
This hairstyle will keep your hair in place all day long on a hot summer day. Once you’re done parting your hair, take three sections of hair from the nape of your neck and start braiding. Braid around the side of your head, take it across your forehead and secure it with a hair tie. Repeat the same on the other side. Once done, pull the braids across your head and secure it with bobby pins.

6. Half up, half down
A half up, half down hairstyle is equal parts easy and edgy. After parting a small portion of your hair from the middle, take a section from each side and tease it with a tail comb for extra volume. Pull these sections and secure them at the back with bobby pins or a clip. You can also use a ribbon and tie it into a bow to channel your inner Rapunzel. Additionally, take out some strands to frame your face and blow dry the rest of your hair to complete the look.
