1. Slicked Back Ponytail
/filters:quality(70)/content/hair/2012/11/hair-4_800x1035.jpg)
Sleek ponytails are perfect for pulling off a polished look and one of the best both quick and easy ways to style your hair and look great in under 5 minutes. Luckily, they’re not that hard to achieve, either. Simply pull back your hair into a pony tail and secure either up high or down low, depending on your preference. Smooth out any flyaways with an anti-frizz serum or hairspray.
2. Curled Ends

Give your hair some much needed style and body by curling the ends. If you don’t have time to put your hair in hot rollers, loosely curling the ends with a curling iron is a quick way to style your hair in an instant. Don’t spend too much time on styling, opting for messy beach waves rather than polished ringlets.

3. Banded up-do

Headbands will help you pull of a quick and easy hairstyle in a heartbeat, too! Pull your hair into a messy up-do and top it off with a slim headband for a quick hair solution. It’ll keep your hair off your face (perfect if your bangs aren’t cooperating) and can look on trend depending on what style of headband you go for. Right now I’d recommend spiked, studded, or bejeweled headbands.
4. Messy Bun

The messy bun can be your best friend when it comes to finding quick and easy ways to style your hair. It looks put-together without screaming “I spent hours getting my hair to look this good”. Try a low bun with a deep part for a polished look, or a messy top knot for more casual occasions.
5. Smoothed out on Top

Give the appearance of polished hair by making sure it’s smoothed out on top. Frizz and flyaways are a dead giveaway for un-styled hair! Spread a small amount of styling serum onto the palms of your hands and gently glide them over your hair to smooth down any strays. As quick and easy hairstyles go, this just might be the quickest and the easiest of all!
6. Pinned down
/filters:quality(70)/content/hair/2012/11/4_419x650.jpg)
Work a preppy look by pinning your hair back with bobby pins or barrettes. Hair pinned to one side is also the perfect way to work a prim and proper, ladylike look. Pinning your hair not only looks polished and pretty, but it’s perfect for those awkward in-between stages when you’re growing out your bangs.
7. Printed Headscarf
/filters:quality(70)/content/hair/2012/11/hair-17_800x912.jpg)
Take inspiration from the designer runways and pop on a pretty headscarf. It’ll add interest to your look as well as being able to conceal anything from unwashed hair to regrowth. This season, try wrapping and knotting a headscarf to create a turban-esque look. It’ll look great with your hair either up or out and is one of the most perfect quick and easy ways to style your hair on the go.
8. Twisted Back

Twisting sections of your hair can create the same sort of effect as retro victory rolls. Start with two sections of hair and twist back from the front, pinning them to secure them in place. It’s a quick way to style your hair by giving it some texture without spending a lot of time on styling.
9. Loosely Braided
/filters:quality(70)/content/hair/2012/11/top-hair-35_800x1199.jpg)
The side braid is still a favourite when it comes to casual quick and easy hairstyles. Once you’ve mastered the art of braiding you’re pretty much able to do it at lightning-fast speeds.
These quick and easy ways to style your hair should only take you a few minutes to achieve. With some practice you’d probably be able to pull off perfect locks in your sleep! What are your favorite quick and easy hairstyles?
