It's easy to want to roll out of bed 5 minutes before you leave the house, throw on your Lazy Girl outfit, and then think you can just get away with skipping out on your hair. But let me tell you something ladies, what you're doing is just wrong. Messy buns, lazy ponytails, rat nests, and cowlicks...it's just not acceptable. But instead of turning on your flat iron (since that takes so much effort), I'll give you a few tricks to make any bad hair don't into a sleek hairdo.

For you girls who like to throw your hair into a rat's nest of a messy bun, there actually is a solution. Rather than looking like you spend all day in bed watching Twilight and eating Phish Food, try looking like a wannabe ballerina. What I mean is...turn your messy bun into a chic little top bun!

Maybe you prefer the classic ponytail as your go-to on bad hair days. Well guess what, there's a sleeker way to pull back that hair so people don't confuse you for a a four year old playing REC soccer. Keep the pony low and chic to turn a lazy look into a sexy up-do.

Or perhaps everyday you wake up with the oh-so-frustrating cowlick. Well don't worry my dear. Pretend like it never happened and shove that kinky hair into a cute little braid. No one will ever know you sleep flat on your face.
