Your alarm goes off and you sluggishly walk to your bathroom to get ready for the day only to be greeted by a monster on your head. Yep, today you are dealing with a classic bad hair day. We all have them. It comes with having gorgeous locks. But do not fret, we have five hairstyles that you can easily do so that no one will know how your morning went.

1. Accessorize It!

Let’s start with the easiest. Although, let’s be honest, all of these styles are so easy it seems wrong. Adding a headband or type of scarf will not only give some life to your hair, but can easily cover that one cowlick that won’t behave. Stubborn little thing.

2. The Low Bun

The low bun is so easy you could do it without a mirror. If your hair is looking a little dead, tease it at the crown before tying it into a low bun. Don’t forget to pull out a couple strands of hair to frame your pretty face!

3. Messy Top Knot

Man, we just keep making these so easy for you! Take the top half of your hair (most commonly the stubborn half) and tie it up into a bun. If the entire thing is being a pain, then show it who’s boss and tie it all up!

4. The Side Braid

Alright, these last two are going to take a few more minutes of effort but we believe in you. We even provided a step-by-step guideline. I know, I know, you’re welcome. This look will keep your hair out of your face. A real bonus if you’re dealing with greasy hair.

5. The Braided Crown

You thought this was going to be complicated, didn’t you? Think again! This hairstyle makes it look like you actually put effort into looking good. This look goes great for the days that your hair is a frizzy mess. The frizz will help texturize and lock the braids in. Yes, queen, slay!
