Braids: A braid is one hairstyle that looks amazing on just about anyone. If you have long hair, all you need to do is tie your hair tightly into a braid and your hair should stay in place all day long. And if you have extra long hair then you can even wrap up your braid into a messy bun.

If you are truly pressed for time and need to look presentable fast, we have the perfect solution. For a sleek and clean look, part your hair down the middle and use either water or hairspray to keep it in place. You then have two options, either knot a low bun or sport a loose braid. Either style will look effortlessly chic.

If you are feeling lazy and can't be bothered to get your hair glammed up for the day, then you'll love the messy knot. It's quick yet has a certain elegance to it. To achieve this look, you'll need a bit of hair spray and then blow dry it to add texture or scrunch it all up. Then divide your hair into two sections and tie it into a knot like you would your shoelace. If you want, you can secure it with pins and finish it off with a little more hairspray.

Busy, hectic days means we often leave something at home and most of the time it will be something pretty basic, like let's say a hair tie. Rummaging through your bag you see not a spare in sight just when you need it. Fret not this simple twist is easy to do and will stay put for a while. All you have to do is twist your hair into a coil and pull it in itself to form a knot at the nape of your neck.

This one usually works well for women with long hair. All you need to do is twist your hair into a bun and then take the ends of it and pull them out from the centre of your bun.
