14 Hairstyles That'll Take You From Drab To Fab In Less Than 10 Minutes

If you routinely skip washing your hair and go through dry shampoo like coffee, you're not alone. Being a girl is hard, and waking up on time is also hard.

Lucky for you, there are a number of hairstyles that require little to no effort and only take 10 minutes (or less) of your time.

It's nice to at least pretend you have your shit together, so why not give these looks a try?!

1. The not-so-basic messy bun

This is an elevated messy bun that takes no time at all to complete. Start by making a top knot, leaving half your hair out. Simply wrap the remainder of hair around, pin it, and loosen.

2. The twisted ponytail

Let's get real... Long hair in the summer sucks, but ponytails can get boring. Change it up by twisting two even sections around the ponytail. Pin underneath for a super chic look.

3. The twisted half ponytail

This is a super easy spin on the half ponytail. Rather than tying your hair back, take two, thin sections of hair, pull back, twist, and secure with an elastic. Repeat the technique five more times and voila!

4. The messy double bun

Get Beyoncé-level volume in a low bun! Split your hair into two sections and twist each part into a bun. Fasten with bobby pins and pull loose until it looks like one bun.

5. The half-up double bun

If you're a fan of two buns or have short hair, try this half-up variation. It's as easy as making two top knots, just remember to tease first for more volume. Miley Cyrus ain't got nothin' on you!

6. The braided messy bun

This trick will transform a basic bun into a braided creation. Put your hair up, leaving a section on one side out. Braid upwards and twist, pinning it around the bun.

7. The low bun for short hair

If you have short hair, don't stress... Divide your hair into three even sections, twist, and pin into buns, making the middle bun slightly higher.

Short hair, don't care!

Who says you can't throw up an updo with short hair? If you've been inching to chop your locks off, go for it! This 'do will have heads turning.

If you haven't caught on yet, braids are literally a lazy girl's savior. To do this pony variation, make a braid on one side, and then wrap it around your ponytail.

9. The easy beach waves

Mermaid waves are achievable without an ocean! Pull your hair into a high pony, and then use a iron to curl. Pull out the hair tie, and fix any face-framing pieces for beach goddess status.

On days where you hit snooze 398405 times, throw your hair in a half pony, braid it, and wrap it into a bun shape. Once it's pinned, pull it gently apart, and suddenly, you look like you've got your life together!

11. The braided half-up top knot

While we love half up top knots, they've grown a little stale. Add a french braid at the top of your head to make the trend a little more unique.

12. The faux fishtail braid

Trick everyone into thinking you went to cosmetology school with this simple trick! Grab two thin sections at a time, tie them off in the middle with an elastic, and repeat!

13. The fancy twist pony tail

Make a ponytail hella fancy by doing this twist variation. Pull your hair back into one ponytail, then wrap the remaining hair around it, pinning it in place.

14. The braided center part

Make your second day waves a little different by adding a braided center part. Create two small sections, dividing the small hairs with a comb. French braid and pin once you've reached the back.

These looks prove that bad hair days are optional!

In 10 minutes or less, your hair can go from looking dirty and drab to too many fire emojis to count.
