It is 3:00 a.m., and you are just now getting home from the PCL. You finally lay your head to rest after hours of studying, only to wake up seemingly minutes later to a ringing alarm clock. You overslept and have to be at work in 20 minutes. “MY HAIR!” you say to yourself as you grab a pair of jeans off the floor and frantically search for matching shoes. If this scenario is familiar to you (it definitely is for me), don’t sweat it – we have a list of the perfect hairstyles for those mornings when you just can’t get it together.
1. The Sock Bun
Model: Becca Chavoya, 22
Hair Type: Long and Curly
Sock buns are perfect for when you’re in a hurry because you only need three things: a rolled up sock (or it’s donut-shaped foam counterpart), a hair-tie and some hairspray. Sock buns work for almost any hair type and instantly give you a classy, clean-cut look. Think Business Ballerina.

2. Braided Crown
Model: Danielle Garcia, 21

Tame those unruly pieces around your face by forming two braids on each side and connecting them in the back with bobby pins or a thin hair tie. Effortlessly pretty.
3. Headband Hair Tuck

Have an old headband you haven’t worn in a while? Find new use for it with this super easy, super feminine style. Great for girls with curly hair!

5. Fedora

Hair Type: Short and Straight
Forget to wash your hair? Have an uncontrollable case of bedhead? Throw on a cute fedora and hit the road. You can’t go wrong with this classic accessory.
