Get a fuss-free but incredibly stylish look in minutes!
We all have those lazy hair days when we don’t feel like doing anything with our locks, except for a ponytail or a messy bun. Sounds familiar, right? But here’s the thing, you don’t actually need to put a lot of effort into your daily hairstyle to make it look chic (or at least presentable). We’ve found five gorgeous, low-effort hairstyles that take less time than you think but still look as if you’ve tried your best. Scroll down to see them all!
Think you know all the ways you can wear your updo? Well, think again! For this half-up hair hack, you won’t need any heat tools, hair gel, or hair spray – only a brush and a hair tie. First things first, pull your tresses up into a half ponytail.
Then, topsy-tail it for the ultimate volume. Next, throw in some random braids – you can combine three-strand braids with rope braids for extra texture. That’s it! Your easiest, laziest hairstyle is ready, and it’s a perfect solution for in-between wash days.
Can’t think of anything cooler than a simple ponytail? With this ponytail hack, your pony will never look boring again! To recreate, divide your locks into three sections. Then, tie your hair in three low ponytails. Take the first pony and create a small opening so that you can pull the neighboring strand through it.
Repeat the process with the last pony, but this time, make sure to pull not one, but two ponytails through the opening. Pull at the outside of your hairdo and enjoy a simple yet so elegant style!
Want to sweep your locks into a bun hairstyle like a pro? This messy bun hack will help you with that! To begin with, gather your tresses into a low pony and pull a hair tie over it. Next, place your hand inside the elastic while swooping the hand under the ponytail and around it to create a small loop.
Then, twist the hair down and place the elastic over the loop you created earlier. Push the loop through the opening to secure the bun. Make sure to keep your front pieces soft and wispy with a touch of the hair pomade. This will ensure that signature messy-but-chic glam we all love so much!
If you like the look of a claw clip, not the way it feels in your hair, try this curly updo next time. Before you start, tie three hair bands together. This little trick helps you hold your hair similar to how a claw clip would.
Once ready, use the first band of your improvised claw clip to create a high ponytail. The second band will help you create a twisted bun out of it. And the third one will secure the remaining hair and ensure a fail-proof look that lasts!
French pins are great hair accessories that instantly make any hairstyle look sophisticated and refined, even though you’ve spent only minutes creating it. For this quick and cute twisted low bun, you’ll need one French pin and not much effort.
Start by gathering your hair at the nape of your neck. Then, grab it and put it into a half bun around the index finger. Twist your locks loosely around the bun and insert the French pin into the side of the bun by weaving it through one side, then back through the other. All done!
To all those lazy queens out there, there’s a way to look high-maintenance with a low-effort hairstyle. This curated selection of easy, no-fuss hairdos proves the point!
