Five minutes. That’s all you need for gorgeous hair with these quick and easy hairstyles designed for women who are perpetually running late (no judgment—we’re all in that club sometimes). These time-saving styles look polished and intentional without requiring you to set an alarm thirty minutes earlier.
The secret to fast hairstyling is having a few reliable techniques in your back pocket. When you’ve practiced a style enough times, muscle memory takes over and you can practically do it with your eyes closed. These are the styles worth mastering for stress-free mornings.
Another key to quick styling success is working with your hair’s natural tendencies. If it air-dries with a wave, embrace it rather than fighting to straighten it. If your hair holds curl well, those curls from yesterday can become today’s pretty waves with a quick refresh. Work smarter, not harder!
