If you’re like me, you’ll notice that your mood, vibe and overall look seems so much more happier and elevated when you have your hair in place. I’m not talking about a full-blown blow-out or hair ‘do though… I’m relating to basic, yet effortlessly put together hairstyles that will give you the motivation to get through the day and to take that cute work-desk selfie!
Below, I’ve rounded up 6 very basic, very easy and zero-hassle hairstyles, that don’t require any specific talent or hair accessories—just some clips, hair ties and cute scrunchies will do the trick!
