Banish Bed Head: Early Morning Solutions


Monday morning. They are often the hardest time of the week. Simply getting out of the comfy bed and putting on clothes feels hard. It's especially difficult when you have the best mattress. That's why I'm so excited about Casper's new start up concept of reinventing the mattress. You definitely need to check them out! Despite having a soft bed, I'm just one of those people who hate morning alarms and so it is set to the last possible time that I can get up while still being on time to work. So my mornings have to be extremely efficient.



Waking up with awful bed head is one of the problems I dread as I stumble into the bathroom.  I've developed a few staple hairstyles that I use to banish bed head when I just can't muster the willpower to straighten or curl my hair. As the new week looms, I wanted to show you my tricks to get ready quick with messy hair!

#1 Half-up with a clip - this one is all about embracing the messy. Tease your hair a bit around your crown and then pull it together with a cute clip!



#2 Double pin - the trick with this one is making sure that you use 2 bobby pins on each side to secure the hairstyle!



#3 Low French braid - this braid I start about 2/3 of the way down my head, just enough to keep the framing layers in the braid!




#4 French braid bun - this one while looking complicated is super easy! Just French braid the left side of your head, adding pieces all the way to the right side of your neck, but not all the way over. Then braid it down and add in the right side of your hair by pinning it. Finally, combine both parts with a hair tie and create a messy bun! I love braiding the pony and then pinning it to make a fun, loose bun!




I hope these four hair ideas help ease your morning routine and banish that bed head! Have a great start to your week!
