15 QuickFix Hairstyling Secrets

There are days when you wake up with perfectly cascading tresses, ready to take on the world. And then there are days when your hair refuses to get styled even in the most basic of ponytails, and hang stubbornly limp instead. Whatever the case maybe, there is nothing that a good hairstyle and some easy cheats won't fix.

1. Add a quick English twist to your ponytail. Tie your hair into a neat pony; grab the end and push it right through the center of the nape of your ponytail and pull it all out.

Hair braiding

2. Upgrade a bun by braiding your hair before you twist it into a knot.

3. Looking for a quick way to style short hair? Just put on an interesting headband and watch the transformation!

Condition the ends

4. Need to tame those wild strands? Vaseline or body lotion can easily double up as leave-in conditioner. Dab some on to control frizz while adding some bounce.

5. Stuck with greasy hair? If you don't have the time for a shampoo and conditioner routine simply wash your bangs or the front portion of your hair and blow dry for an instant bounce.
