With these simple techniques, you can create different hairstyles in no time and still look amazing all day long. So let's get started creating the perfect hairstyles for your busy day!

    Guide: Easy hairstyles for a busy day

    Hair updos can be easier to do than you think. With the right products and tools, you can create beautiful hairstyles in a short time that are perfect for a busy everyday life. Whether you have long or short hair, there is plenty of inspiration to be found for updos.

    A quick and simple way to style your hair in everyday life is to make a classic ponytail. Use an elastic band or scrunchie to hold the hair together, and spray some texturizing spray at the top for extra volume. If you want more variety, try braids or a simple bun for those mornings when time is tight - it still looks like you put a lot of work into your hairstyle!

    What tools do you need to make a hairdo?

    There are various tools that can be useful when you want to make a hairdo. Here are some of the most common tools that can be useful to have on hand:

    1. Hairbrush: A hairbrush is an important tool for combing the hair and removing any knots and tangles. It is recommended to use a brush with soft bristles to avoid damaging the hair. Here we can definitely recommend our Curved Paddle Brush, which with its gentle and soft boar bristles, ensures an easy and comfortable ride through the hair.


    2. Hair elastics: Hair elastics are indispensable when it comes to creating different hairstyles. They are used to gather the hair in a ponytail, buns or braids. Make sure you have elastics in different sizes to be able to adjust them to your hair length and thickness.

    3. Hairpins: Hairpins are necessary when you want to fix and secure the hair in a certain position. They can be used to create structured hairstyles such as buns and parted hair. Make sure you have bobby pins of different sizes and colors so that they can be matched with your hair color and hairstyle.

    4. Hair barrette: An elegant hair barrette can be a fantastic tool for creating beautiful and exclusive hairstyles. Hair clips are often used as a quick and easy solution to spice up simple hairstyles and hairstyles.

    5. Hair clips: Hair clips have become wildly popular in the past few years. This is due to the versatility they can often be styled with and the many variations there are. They can also be used in both simple and complex hairstyles.

    6. Styling products: Styling products such as texture sprays, hair sprays and serums can be helpful in creating and maintaining hairstyles. Texture sprays can add volume and texture to the hair, while hair sprays can help keep the hairstyle in place throughout the day. Serum can be used to add shine and smoothness to the hair.

    1. Create a quick ponytail

    How to easily make a beautiful ponytail for everyday life or parties.

    1. Tailor your ponytail with different positions - try placing your ponytail higher or lower on the back of your head for a varied look.

    • Play with textures using a curling iron or straightener before creating your ponytail.

    A nice and quick ponytail can be an ideal choice for both everyday life and festive events. Here are some more variations you can try:

    2. Sleek and smooth ponytail: Start by straightening your hair with a straightener, remember heat protection spray! Then gather the hair into a tight ponytail at the nape of the neck. Use a small amount of serum to control any flyaways and make the ponytail smooth and shiny.

    3. High ponytail with volume: To create extra volume and fullness to your ponytail, you can first use a texture spray or dry shampoo on the roots. Then, gather the hair into a high ponytail on the top of the head and tighten it well. Use your fingers or a comb to loosen hair slightly at the roots to create volume.

    4. Braided Ponytails: Add a twist to your ponytail by creating a braid. You can choose to make a single braid down the ponytail or make several small braids along the ponytail for a more complex look. Start by making the ponytail and secure it with an elastic band. Then divide the hair into sections and braid each section before securing with a small elastic. Repeat the process for each section of hair until the entire ponytail is braided.
