I know the feeling all too well. You hit snooze one too many times. Suddenly, you’re scrambling, and your hair is the last thing you think about. But guess what? Running late doesn’t mean sacrificing style. You can still look polished and feel great! My mission at TressNails.com is to help you achieve that. I’ve gathered over a dozen simple school hairstyles. These are styles you can totally do in minutes. I remember one morning, I was already running late for a school event. I managed a super cute braided accent in under three minutes. It totally saved my look!
13. The Speedy Ponytail
This is my absolute go-to. A classic ponytail is a timeless choice for busy mornings. It keeps your hair neat. You can wear it high or low. For a polished finish, I love using a hair tie that matches my outfit. Or, I wrap a small strand of hair around the elastic. It looks so chic!
12. The Effortless Bun
A simple top knot or low bun is a lifesaver. It keeps hair perfectly out of your face. It’s incredibly versatile. For a quick fix, just twist and pin. If you have a tiny bit more time, a hair donut adds great volume. It’s a fast way to look put-together.
11. The Braided Accent
Want to elevate a basic look? Try a simple side braid. Or maybe a little crown braid. You don’t need to braid all your hair. Just a small section makes a big difference. I like securing the braid loosely. Use a clear elastic for a softer appearance. It’s subtle but stylish.
10. The Twisted Half-Up
This style is so pretty. Twist two sections of hair from the front. Secure them at the back with a clip. It keeps your hair off your face. Plus, it still shows off your hair’s length. A chic clip or a small elastic works perfectly. It’s an easy way to add detail.
9. The Bubble Ponytail
This one is fun and super quick! Start with a regular ponytail. Then, add elastics down the length. Gently pull sections apart to create the “bubble” effect. It adds a playful touch to your look. It’s a great way to make a simple ponytail more interesting.
