10 Performance-Enhancing Gym Hairstyles From The SS18 Runways

Hair often feels like an afterthought at the gym - pull it back and go - but if competitive athletes are any indication, workout hair might actually affect your performance. Professional boxers are required to secure hair with 'soft and non-abrasive materials' according to the Women's Boxing Association. For gymnasts, hair must be pulled back away from the face so as not to obscure vision. And female Taekwondo competitors are required to wear long hair in a bun or a ponytail to prevent snags. Of course, taking the time to get overly done up for a workout is probably going overboard. These runway styles strike the balance.
