6. The 5 Minute Curls

These 5 minute curls are super easy. You don’t have to worry about the sectioning, just tie up your hair, and start curling. Curl outwards for a voluminous hairstyle. When you are done curling, use your fingers to loosely run through your hair to create messy effortless curls.

7. Side Fishtail Braid

This hairstyle and braid works best for longer hair. If your hair is straight, give it some wave by winding around a curling iron. For a quicker hairstyle, you can start working the braid from your neck and ignore the bangs braid.

Tip: For a more bohemian effect, gently pull the braid apart with your fingers.
