Easy Hairstyles to Do at Home

Sometimes, all it takes to look your best is something easy, so we have collected these stylish yet simple hairstyles you can do at home.

To create an effortless yet feminine and sophisticated style, check out this tutorial from Cosmo for creating a sizeable oversized bun that keeps face-framing locks away from your eyes.

Bow hairstyles may look complex at first, but they’re very straightforward when done right. A bow hairstyle gives off Princess vibes and is an easy way to add flair and drama to a basic ponytail or braided style. An oversized bow adds even more drama, or try switching it up by switching in smaller ribbons for more feminine looks! If you’re searching for the perfect way to elevate your everyday ponytail, the Criss Crossbow is a beautiful and effortless way. Perfect for any special event and easily achievable at home using only bobby pins, this chic style will keep your locks secure all day long without needing heat-styling tools! Whether out with friends or on an important date, this half-up bow hairstyle will give you an effortlessly put-together yet sophisticated appearance.

While we all appreciate a messy bun, sometimes we want something fancier than an untidy chignon. This Rodarte-inspired style provides an elegant solution, offering knot and braid styling features for added flair to your everyday looks. This style may require slightly more bobby pins than its criss-cross bow counterpart but is still an effective heatless option to add some glamour and adds texture. Furthermore, this look works exceptionally well if your second-day hair shows through: its twist hides any visible dirt strands from showing through your updo!

If you’re feeling adventurous, try Kiernan Shipka’s elegant double-sided braided hairstyle for something truly eye-catching and beautiful. Similar to a regular three-strand braid, this look entails creating two mini bows on either side of your head before securing them together with elastic. After styling this look with some hairspray misting, let it dry for an eye-catching, captivating style that will turn heads!

For those who desire a fun style but are uncomfortable using curling irons, heat-free options offer great alternatives that won’t damage their locks. Though they require setting overnight, you’ll thank yourself when the result is picture-perfect glam waves!

To achieve the look, start by washing and towel drying your hair until damp (avoiding rubbing as this causes frizz). Next, divide your locks into as many sections as you’d like – larger units will create more giant, looser waves, while tighter waves require smaller areas. Wrap each section around itself from the ends up until your roots, finishing it off with hairspray before leaving it overnight to set.

Messy French braids are another classic hairstyle that requires no heat at all – perfect when time is of the essence or you simply want something quick and effortless! To achieve the look, dampen your locks and separate them into two equal sections before creating two French braids on either side using pieces from your own coils for more intricate results. Finally, secure them with hair ties overnight!

Bantu knots offer an unconventional solution for creating heatless waves! To achieve the style, wash, and towel dry your hair until damp before twisting each of your one to two-inch sections tightly until they resemble ropes. Once all areas have been turned tightly enough, secure each section with a small hair tie before leaving it alone overnight to set. Add extra shine and volume by spraying your locks with a volumizing spray or hair serum, such as Prose’s Pop Lock Glossing Serum. Next, part your hair down the middle into two pigtails before twisting each section until it reaches its ends and secure them with hair ties.

Add an elegant and sophisticated look with this cute and straightforward style! Begin with a small section of hair located just above where you part it (typically on the right side) and start twisting until reaching its endpoint; secure this section using horizontally placed bobby pins. Repeat this process on both sides of your head; when your twists are secure, stretch them out a bit for extra volume before misting them with hair spray!

This hairstyle is ideal for a quick yet chic look without much time spent styling your locks. You can style this hairdo in ponytails, buns, or with additional accessories like hair clips and headbands for added flair.

Twist hairstyles are one of the most accessible and versatile looks you can do at home, and this twisted half-updo is no exception. To achieve it, create two pigtail ponytails before the fishtail braiding their ends with fishtail braids. After that is complete, twist both braids together into a chunky style before pinning it back in place for extra hold and shine – or finish by misting some hairspray for additional storage and hold! Add some zest to this hairstyle by wearing it with a vibrant accessory such as a bright turban or headscarf, or use a hair clip with an eye-catching flower attached.

If you prefer more formal styles, a low bun can be created by winding your hair into a small ponytail and using a bobby pin to secure it. Try SheaMoisture Papaya
