If you’re the kind of person who sets four alarms each night, then you’re likely already very well acquainted with dry shampoo. But we all know there are days when a hit of powder just isn’t enough — and you need a quick updo that will fool everyone from thinking you haven’t washed your hair in three days (or five, no judgment). 

We’ve rounded up 14 of the most effortless, easy looks that will get you out the door fast — with step-by-step videos you can watch as you style. Go ahead and hit snooze. Again.

Use bedhead to your advantage. Gather your hair into two sections and loop them into a knot. Secure the style with a just couple of pins to keep things a little loose in the front.

Make a small center part and pull back the hair from the top of your head into a mini loop. Use bobby pins to secure the hair into a bun at the crown. Don’t worry about it looking messy — it’s better if it does.

A simple topknot is uncomplicated and cool. Create a tight pony at your crown, then divide the tail, twist, and pin.

Create an elegant schoolgirl style with this hidden pony trick. Add some product to your roots to smooth down flyaways. Then, pull your front strands into a pony at the nape of your neck and under the rest of your hair.

DIY your own headband with this pretty braided style. Grab a piece of hair from the back of your part and begin braiding it toward the face, picking up pieces as you go. Continue it down and around your ear, then secure with an elastic and some pins.

Short haired folks, we didn’t forget about you. Disguise dirty roots with a few decorative bobby pins along your hairline.

Ready to look awesome in less than a minute? Gather all your hair at your crown, secure it with an elastic, then use your fingers to open and separate your curls. Done.
