Ten hairstyles are ruling Pinterest boards right now, and every one of them can be done at home with a curling iron, some bobby pins, and a YouTube tutorial.

Pinterest has turned into the default search engine for anyone staring at their bathroom mirror wondering what to do with their hair. Type in almost anything — “half-up topknot,” “rope braid,” “peach hair” — and the platform serves up thousands of tutorials, before-and-afters, and step-by-step pin boards. TheThings Celebrity’s rundown of the ten best DIY hair trends pulls together the looks that have actually been driving those searches this spring, from red-carpet-inspired ponytails to the kind of bold color jobs that used to require a salon appointment and a lot of nerve.

• The list highlights voluminous curls and sleek high ponytails modeled on red-carpet looks from Kendall Jenner and Julia Louis-Dreyfus.
• Cropped cuts get their own spotlight, pointing to textured pixie cuts and blunt or asymmetrical bobs popularized by Rihanna and Michelle Williams.
• Color trends featured range from dark-rooted platinum blonde to festival-ready hues like Kylie Jenner’s Coachella peach-orange and pastel shades.

Volume, Shine, and the Ponytail Renaissance

Big, bouncy curls have never really left the beauty rotation, but Pinterest users have found new ways to make them look less “prom” and more effortless — loose barrel curls brushed out for texture instead of tight ringlets held together with hairspray. Right alongside that is the sleek high ponytail, the kind Kendall Jenner and Julia Louis-Dreyfus have both worn down red carpets, pulled back tight with a wrapped section of hair hiding the elastic. It’s a two-minute style that photographs like it took an hour, which is exactly why DIY boards can’t get enough of it.

Chopping It Off: Pixies and Blunt Bobs

Short hair is having a real moment on the platform, and the tutorials reflect it. Textured pixie cuts — think choppy, piece-y layers rather than a tidy little crop — are trending alongside blunt, one-length bobs and their slightly edgier cousin, the asymmetrical bob. Rihanna and Michelle Williams have both been cited as reference points for the look, proof that a drastic chop can read as high-fashion rather than just “getting rid of split ends.” For anyone who’s been holding onto long hair out of habit, the boards make a pretty convincing case for the scissors.

Braids, Twists, and Topknots Rule Pinterest

Beyond the color and the cuts, the everyday styling trends are just as heavily pinned. Half-up topknots and French twists show up constantly as the go-to “I did my hair but didn’t really try” look, while rope braids have taken over from the classic three-strand braid because they photograph thicker and hold up better through a long day. It’s the same appeal that’s made braid tutorials a Pinterest staple for years — they look complicated enough to impress but are simple enough to actually replicate with two hands and a mirror.

Color Goes Bold: Peach, Platinum, and Pastel

The at-home color trends are where things get adventurous. Dark-rooted platinum blonde — letting a few inches of natural root show on purpose under bleached-out ends — has become the low-maintenance way to go dramatically light without a monthly touch-up. On the more daring end, festival season has pushed pastel and vivid shades back into the spotlight, led by Kylie Jenner’s Coachella peach-orange, a color that turned into its own trend cycle almost overnight.

Kylie Jenner’s Coachella peach-orange spawned its own copycat wave, right alongside platinum blondes wearing two inches of dark root on purpose.

These trends move fast — what’s pinned by the thousands this spring can look dated by fall — but the format doesn’t change. Someone famous wears it on a red carpet or at a festival, a tutorial hits Pinterest within days, and by the time it filters down to everyone else’s bathroom mirror, three more looks are already climbing the boards behind it. Right now, that’s peach hair and rope braids. Ask again in a few months and it’ll be something else entirely.
