Being someone who is always in a rush obviously has its pitfalls but the worst part is that sometimes you end up looking shoddy. I mean sure, you can quickly swipe on some lipstick and mascara and instantly look awake but covering up bedhead ain’t an easy task. So, think of the following hairstyles as the ultimate cheat sheet to looking put together. 

Transform Your Tousled I-Woke-Up-Like-This Hair Into A Major Hair Moment With These ‘Dos

The 1-minute messy bun

What you need: 

Elastic

Leave-in conditioner

The key to recreating the right amount of messy in this bun hairstyle lies in starting off with frizz-free hair. Take a pump of leave-in conditioner and work it into your mid-lengths. For extremely dry ends, we suggest using a hydrating oil.

The inverted ponytail

What you need: 

Elastics

Smoothening serum

Looking for an easy way to style your short hair? Sit back and watch this tutorial to know more about how to keep your mane off your face, no professional skills required. Just tie half your hair up and turn your ponytail inside out. 

The milkmaid braids

What you need: 

Hair ties 

Ribbons

A hot iron 

Bobby pins

Anti-frizz cream

When ace hairstylist, Justine Marjan drops a hair tutorial, you get practicing. Not only is this crown braid tutorial super easy, but it works very well on second or even third-day hair. Make sure you have a frizz-zapping cream on hand as well as a fine comb to flatten flyaways. The only con? It is a little difficult to maneuver the braids if you have a lob. 

The heatless beach waves

What you need: 

Rollers 

Texturising spray

Hairstylist to the Kardashians, Jen Atkin’s tutorial for heatless beachy waves is as easy as it gets. Get your hands on a spray that gives your hair a little bit of texture, shine and bounce. Dampen your hair and use the rollers to twist your hair. Keep them overnight and wake up with the most gorgeous beachy waves!

The floral bun

What you need: 

Fresh flowers

Bobby pins 

Curling iron

Hairspray

It is incredibly hard to pick one favourite hairstyle from Anchal Morwani’s #FestiveSpecial series but this floral bun has made it to our saved posts tab on Instagram. It looks way harder to do than it really is and gives you the sleekest, Hailey Baldwin-meets-Sabyasachi-hair vibes. Make sure you keep a hairspray handy to keep the ‘do in place all day long.

The twisted ponytail

What you need: 

Hair tie

If you’re tired of your regular braid, this twisted version is great for when you want to switch things up. It’s pretty simple. All you gotta do is spritz some shine spray on your mane and then comb it through. Tie a ponytail and divide it in two and then twist both individually and then together. Voila! A statement-making hairstyle without much ado. For bonus points, add your favourite accessories.

Which hairstyle is your favourite? You’ve gotta let us know!
