This is the ultimate no-effort, holy-s&@!-amazing hairstyle, and on textured, unwashed hair, it looks even better. Put on an elastic headband like the Kitsch Bow Headband, $24 for a pack of five; if you want to get even fancier, you can wear a bedazzled one like Henri Bendel Madison Headwrap, $98. You can position it hippie-style over your forehead or at the top of your head. The back of the headband should be level with the center of your ears. Working in medium-size sections, take the ends of your hair and pull them over the bottom of your headband, tucking them in; your hair should look as if it's rolled up to your scalp.

Pinch Twist
Jarman likes this funky, quasi-retro style, which works for almost any hair length. "Start at the front right side of the hairline and pinch twist inward," says Jarman. "Move along the hairline and bobby pin flat across on the sections that the hair falls out of." Jarman likes to use colorful bobby pins that contrast with the color of the hair; we think Ban.Do Model Bobbi Sets,$10, are adorbs. Repeat the steps on the left side of your head. You can leave the back half of your hair down and hide the bobbies underneath a layer of hair or end the twists at the nape of your neck and pin there. Twist the two tails into a single bun, pinning with bobbies again.

Twisted Chignon
This might appear too complicated for a morning routine, but if it takes you more than two minutes, you're doing it wrong (and wasting valuable coffee-guzzling time). Comb a palm-size amount of mousse through the bottom half of your hair to give it some grip. Divide your hair into two low pigtails. On one side of your head, twist the hair to the ends. Cross your twists at the back of your head; if you have short hair that can't be twisted anymore, pin it here. If your hair is longer, continue to pin the twists moving from one side of the head to the other, creating overlapping "Z" shapes. Continue pinning until all your hair is in a bun.

Bubble Tail
Stars like Olivia Wilde have sported this look at swanky events and, surprisingly, it couldn't be easier to do. Jarman says to gather your hair in a ponytail at the middle of the back of your head. (You get extra style points for using a cute ponytail holder like Henri Bendel Spike Chain Pony Set, $38.) Every two to three inches down your ponytail, slide on a clear elastic. When you're done, "poof" out each section of the ponytail by pinching each side with your fingers and pulling gently outward. Muss up your bangs or pull some hairs out in front so it doesn't look so precious and Princess Jasmine-y.

Braided Bun
K. Stew's kinda known for rocking the hair flip, but we think this 'do is her best yet. First, make a deep side part. Weave a loose French braid on the side of your head opposite the part, starting at the hairline moving toward the back of your head. Secure it with a clear elastic. On the other side of your head, make a small braid starting at the temple. Tie the end with another elastic. Take the ends of your hair, including the braids, and pin them into a messy bun at the nape of your neck. Let some small pieces near your ears and hairline hang out of the bun for maximum chicness.
It takes a special kind of gal to wake up in the morning, give her hair a quick fluff or twist and head out the door looking genuinely hot. Most of us would get a sympathetic look, an inquiry about our general health or possibly a request to undergo a drug test. That's because that just-rolled-out-of-bed hair usually translates to just-rolled-off-a-garbage-truck hair in real life. But what if you could make bedhead work for, not against you? What if you could take that natural-texture, cool-fuzziness thing you've got going on in the A.M. and make it look chic -- without a lot of fuss? Try these quick styles and little tweaks for making the most of your slept-in locks.
