Whether you’d like to admit it or not, sometimes we can just be plain lazy when it comes to styling our hair.  Sure, we love taking our time to get ready to go out with the girls, but getting ready for work is another story.  We’ve got five lazy girl hacks for curling your hair when you just don’t feel like using a curling iron.

5  Lazy Girl Curl Hacks

#1 Ponytail Curls

When you don’t have time to curl your hair section by section, then you’ll love this trick.  Put your hair into a high ponytail and secure with a scrunchie to avoid creating any dents in your hair.  Depending on the thickness of your hair, you will only have about 3-4 sections of hair to curl.  Remove your scrunchie and use hairspray to lock the hairstyle into place.

 

 

#2 Twist and Dry

Save on styling time by creating sexy beach waves with your blow dryer!  Once your hair is damp, use a texturizing product to give your hairstyle more body.  Split your hair into two big sections, and twist your hair.  Blow dry the twists until your hair is dry.  Voila!  Beach waves are complete and you don’t even need your curling iron.

 

 

#3 Overnight Curls

There’s nothing better than waking up with perfect hair.  Once you shower before bedtime, make sure your hair is about 80% dry.  Braid two pigtails and secure on the top of your head with clips.  When you take out the braids in the morning you will be surprised to find perfect waves.

 

 

#4 Flat Iron Curls

Forgot to pack your curling iron for your vacation?  A flat iron can actually double as a curling iron.  The technique will take some time to get used to, but it’s easier than you think.

 

 

 

#5 No Heat Waves

Here’s another quick way to achieve loose waves either overnight or during the day.  Twist two big sections of hair and secure on top of your head.  Wait 8 hours or more to take down your hair.  This hack can also be used as a way to quickly mimic a dutch braid!
