Lazy hair styles

Being in quarantine has given everyone some extra free time - that means more of us are spending more time reading, trying new recipes, and more. While we are in this new temporary reality, it’s important to try not to take to the at-home dye or scissors! Instead, we’re here to help with some lazy-girl, dirty hair styles to experiment with. 

Here are some beautiful styles that are easy to do at home - and hopefully they’ll have you rethinking the messy bun you’ve been wearing on the daily.

The timeless half-up top knot is easy to do and it is flattering on every face shape. Simply sweep the top half or a portion of your hair in to a bun, and secure with a clear hair tie or a few bobby pins.

No two messy buns are the same. The key to nailing a messy bun style is to create your bun while your hair is a little messy. Sweep your hair up and tie it in to a bun, then pull a few pieces of your hair out around your face to create an effortless (but not disheveled) look.

A low pony is the perfect way to wear second or third day hair. Here are our tips on how to style a low pony:

1. Part your hair down the middle and pull back behind your ears.

2. Backcomb the crown for fullness on top.

3. Smooth by lightly by brushing over the top of the hair you just backcombed.

4. Fasten the back section into a low ponytail.

5. Pull a 1/2 in section from the ponytail and wrap around your hair tie, then secure with a bobby pin.

Braids are an easy way to spice up your hair for literally any occasion from a workout to a day at home, or to sleep. 

The bob and lob hair cuts: get inspired

The bob - it was a hair cut that shocked society when it hit the scene in the early 1900’s. 

Once the trend caught on with women all over, some people were not having it. The appearance of shorter hair signified that women were - gasp! - trying to “act like men” by going against beauty standards at the time. Bobbed hair became “shocking” but despite the controversy, many women embraced the bob hair cut and the perceived connection to feminism. In 1927, actress Mary Gordon told Pictorial Review: "I consider getting rid of our long hair one of the many little shackles that women have cast aside in their passage to freedom. Whatever helps their emancipation, however small it may seem, is well worth while."

Over a century later, the bob is still one of the hottest hair styles to rock, whether you go for a short bob or a lob...and it’s never lost its connection to empowered women everywhere.

Here are some of our favorite recent bob and lob cuts:

When you’re not ready to give up your effortless waves, a lob lets you keep the texture and body. Clare infused this textured bob with a lot of movement, including bits of brightness around the face.

Jenny cut this sleek bob, and when parted down the middle, it keeps this hairstyle looking fresh and modern.

Noelle cut this gorgeous subtle A-line bob. The subtle cut has long layers to give the cut movement and bounce. 

Clare cut this soft lob which is perfect for those who want to ease in to the bob or lob style.

This lob by Noelle offers a happy medium between a short cut and mid-length hair.

Fall & winter 2019 hair trends

Hair is riding the throwback train for fall and winter 2019. The ‘80’s and ‘90’s have influenced just about everything from your color to where to place hair accessories.

It might be intimidating to walk out the door with a giant clip in your hair, but trust us, the models on the Fall 2019 runways will convince you to go for it. And if you’ve been holding off that major hair color change, we have all the hairstyle inspo you need to take the plunge.

The best fall hair trends for 2019 include (but are certainly not limited to) barrettes, scrunchies, hats, headbands, beach waves, and pastel colors. There’s something to fit any hair type and personal preference. Whether you want a permanent hairstyle change or simply want to refresh your current look, celebrities and models have already done it for us. Take a peek at the following pictures and prepare for your next big hair move.

1. Accessory overload

It was Gabrielle Chanel who once advised something along the lines of "take one accessory off before you leave the house." Don't just ignore that advice for hair accessories this season—do the opposite. Add more sparkly clips, pins, and baubles to your hair before you leave the house. The more, the better!

2. Hat Hair

Just because you're wearing a hat doesn't mean you need to forget about your hair. At Zimmermann, hair was styled in loose waves under a beret.

3. Beach Waves

Yes, it might be fall, but that doesn’t mean that you have to give up your beachy waves. In fact, it’s the perfect style for the season because it gives you that “I woke up like this” look that you see on Insta all year round. Spritz in a salt spray and scrunch your hair for a textured, piecey look.

4. Pastel Touches

Fashion hair colors are more muted this season, with the pastel tones that have been so popular in recent seasons used more subtly in the fall/ winter 2019 hair color trends. Take for instance the color story at Saint Laurent, where touches of pastel tones were used in groups based on the elements, with streaks of pale blue and peach meant to remind us of clouds and a sunrise horizon.
