5 Quick and Easy Hairstyles

Heya!

The past week has been so busy! I had test after test in school so I didn't have any time to post. Having little spare time did benefit me in some sense though. I had a tiny amount of time each morning to do my hair as I got up early to revise and left very little time to do my hair and get dressed each morning. As a result of this, I decided to do a quick tutorial on each hairstyle I used this week :)

On Monday, I went for the classic high pony look. All you have to do to achieve this look is hoist your hair up at the crown of your head and secure with a thick elastic band. Similar to the picture, I added a cute bow to my hair after I had tied it up.

On Tuesday I felt particularly lazy and went for a side-braided look. I don't particularly like 'slicked back' hair so I aimed for a messy braid look. I started by spraying some dry shampoo into my roots, this helped me achieve a high volume look. I use batiste, I just love the brand as it's reasonably priced and does not have a lingering smell. After I had done my simple braid, I pulled each hair segment out a little to make it look purposely loose and messy. The great thing about this is that you can re-do the braid throughout the day - even without a mirror!

I hit the midweek slum on Wednesday and just decided to pile my hair onto my head, literally! I went for a messy bun look on Wednesday. Before I piled my hair up, I teased it with a comb to give it extra volume. Leaving a few bits down to help frame my face. I gathered all my hair up onto the top of my head and twisted it until all of my hair was into the bun. Then I fastened it with a bobbin and voila! I was ready to head out the door.

I took this pic during the summer *sigh* Anyway, I plaited my hair before I went to bed on Wednesday and slept in those plaits. When I woke up on Thursday, I took the plaits out and messed my hair up a bit. When my hair was nice and messy, I moved my middle parting to the side so the front of my hair looked more voluminous.

On Friday, I went au natural and left my hair the way it naturally is. I brushed through my hair quite quickly and fluffed it slightly from the roots so it wasn't dead straight.

All of these hairstyles took less than five minutes and lasted throughout the day! 

Have you already tried any of these hairstyles?

Do you have any other styles I could try?
