5 Time-Saving Hairstyles for Working Women
Make your hair glow, no matter how rushed or busy you are.
It’s nice to think we have time every morning to take our time in the world and pull our hair perfectly into whatever style we like. The reality, however, is that this is often a crazy impulse. Whether you’re getting the kids ready for school, running out the door to work, or going to bed when the alarm goes off, mornings are often hectic and leave our hair screaming for a little attention. Here’s a handy tip: less is more when it comes to your hair on busy mornings. Check out these easy-to-use hairstyles that you can squeeze in no matter how rushed you are.
Overnight braids
Evenings are usually very different from busy mornings. You can curl up on the couch, tea in hand, and watch your favorite show (and probably sleep in later than you should). Make those nights count by tying a big braid (or multiple braids) into your hair and letting you sleep on it. Wake up in the morning and voila! Simply unravel and begin, enjoying the volume you immediately create and preparing for the waves of the world.
The Top-Down Approach
When you’re pressed for time, you need to prioritize. Start styling from the top of your hair. Grab your blow dryer, flatten it out and let it fall on the rest of your hair. It will cover everything that’s happening underneath, so you can create a flawless look.
Embrace the top knot
There’s nothing better than tying your hair into a messy knot at the top of your head and getting it ready for the new day. When done right, top knots are the perfect go-to hairstyle that takes just seconds to complete in the morning. Whether you prefer a messy look or prefer to dress up your day at the office with a sleek knot, it’s time to practice. Take some time on a less hectic morning to master this style. Soon, it will become second nature to you.
Reach your extensions
Hair extensions are your best friend. They will instantly transform your hair, giving you the perfect length and volume for a great day. Zala clip-in hair extensions are made from 100% human hair, so all the hard work is done for you. Simply insert the hair extensions and they blend seamlessly with your natural hair. From here, the possibilities are endless. Choose a quick and easy low profile pony. Use your clip-in extensions to add volume to your overnight weave of loose waves. There are so many easy hairstyles that are well worth the cost of hair extensions – guaranteed to save you time in the morning and make you look your best.
Use a dry shampoo
Don’t have time to wash and blow dry your hair? Dry shampoo is your answer. Spray it directly onto your roots and massage it in to help absorb all the excess oils that have built up over time. This will also add a little texture to your hair and get it ready for the new day. If you want to save even more time, perform this step the night before. Simply spray it on your hair before you go to bed and brush through for complete absorption. Wake up, comb through, and you’re ready to go. It’s so easy!
Focus on your edges
If you’re rocking it, this should be an area you focus on when you’re in a hurry. Your bangs need the most attention to make you look stunning. Even if you are air drying the rest of your hair, take a few minutes to blow dry your bangs. As the focal point of your hair, it will set you on fire if you leave it looking smooth and sleek.
Get your bobby pins ready
Finally, as you glance cursorily at your hair on your way out the door, get your bobby pins ready. Keep them near the door so you can easily reach for them and tidy up any hair that fell apart in your morning rush to get out the door. You can even keep some bobby pins in your handbag if it’s easier to check your car on the go.
The takeaway
With these practical tips, you’ll be able to instantly make your hair look nice and fun so you can look your best when you leave the house in the morning (even if you do sleep during your alarm clock).
