I have super thick hair, so if I don't straighten it I have to pull it out of my face. Here is what I did today:
Holy huge pic... sorry!
@roxy821: I shouldn't complain about it being so thick, but in order to get my hair to look really good I have to:
Sooo basically unless I'm going out with FI on a hot date or having girls night out, my shit ends up in a pony tail by the end of the day! Too bad I'm growing it out for the wedding too, so it's longer than it's been in years so I just get frustrated with it all the time.
I love this hairstyle. its so easy and takes all of 5 minutes - shower and let it air dry a little bit and while its still damp put your hair up at night, sleep it in take it out the next morning and makes for pretty curls

I like playing around with different things like french braiding across the front (bangs if you got em), or making a side part and using cute clips or bobby pins to pull the front pieces to each side, then throwing it back in a ponytail or messy bun. There's always the front poof too. Those things don't take too long but they can make your hairstyle look different each day.
@totheislnds: I think I might have to try this! It looks simple enough.
99% of the time I throw my hair into a ponytail because I can't be bothered to deal with it. The other 1% I leave it down, I don't blow dry it either, I crank the heat in the car on the way to work so it's dry by the time I get there!
@totheislnds- She has some other cute hair styles too. Thanks!
@MissBoPeep- You sound exactly like me. But I want to feel pretty lol
@roxy821: I know what you mean! I always have the best of intentions... and then I get up in the morning, and as I'm stumbling around in the dark go "Uggggh. I don't wanna do my hairrrr." *gaint pouty face* I'm just not a morning person.... like at all.
I have uber curly hair and believe me, it limits one's choices. The best I can do is put it in a pony tail. My daughter (when she was still alive) could French braid my hair but I can't do it.
A friend of mine shared this link with me - a "two minute updo for work."

So far, I haven't had much success, but my hair is fairly long and VERY thick, so I think it's just not meant for my hair type.
@Gemstone: It'd take me a heck of a lot longer than 2 minutes to even just prep my hair for that 2-minute updo. LOL
@BayStateBride: Haha! I felt the same way. The first time I tried it, it took me 20 minutes to get it to stay. I think you need a specific hair type for that one, but I have to admit that it looks great!
@Gemstone- That totally worked and looked good with my hair. Yes I have a mirror in my office and tried it.
I need to collect videos like this lol!
Well I just rolled my hair up with a head band to try out the no heat curl! Hope it works! :)
I tried Gemstone's idea and it really only took 2 mins and I am getting compliments.
@MissBoPeep- Hope it your hair worked for you
@roxy821: I'll have to try that one on monday. When I took my hair down this morning it was curly, but they didn't even last through the 30 minute drive to work, my hair's completely straight again! Oh well, at least I can say I tried today! :)
@MissBoPeep- So it didn't work out my hair doesn't hold a curl either, but hopefully it at least added more volume.
@roxy821: It added a little bit of volume for me, but not much. I might try it again with hair gel in, and try leaving it in for a few more hours next time. My hair is next to impossible to curl!
@totheislnds: Thanks for sharing!
I'm pretty clueless at doing my own hair...

Ok, I do not know how I have made it to 26 without really knowing how to do my hair. I can blow dry it and put it in a ponytail but that is this extent of it
What is your favorite easy hairstyle? Any hair styles to do in under 5 minutes (not including blowdrying time)?
I have thin shoulder length hair and I would love to see some fun ideas.
