Thse perky rag curls will put some pep in your step even before you start guzzling the coffee.

1. Create a side part in damp hair and spritz a curl-enhancing spray, like Tresemme Flawless Curls Spray Gel, $4.99, throughout.
2. Rip up 1-inch wide pieces of an old t-shirt or pillowcase, and roll a 1-inch section of your hair up around the paper towel toward your roots.
3. Once you reach your scalp, tie the ends of the paper towel together to secure the curl. Repeat this process until you've rolled your entire head.
4. Wake up and remove the paper towel pieces. Use your fingers to gently separate the curls as desired. Lift at the roots and finish with a mist of strong-hold hairspray.

It may be hard to believe, but a little frizz can look pretty. Crimped hair has reemerged on the beauty scene with a more modern spin on the 80s staple that is less prom and more runway chic.

1. Apply mousse, (Paul Mitchell Sculpting Foam, $23.49, is a top-rated pick) to damp hair, focusing more on the length and avoiding your roots.
2. Separate your hair into four sections, then braid one section, starting as high up as you want the crimps to fall, and secure the end with an elastic.
3. Repeat the process on the three remaining sections of your hair.
4. Tie your four braids together to keep them in place while you sleep, then hit the hay.
5. Wake up, and unbraid your hair. Then, use a paddle brush to brush through your hair and create small crimps.
6. Finish with a moveable hairspray.

Effortless beachy waves are the go-to look when you don't want to come off as trying too hard, and with this heat-free take on the hairstyle, you actually don't have to try that hard ... at all.

1. Spritz dry hair with a saltwater based spray, like Bumble and Bumble Surf Spray, $25, then slip on a stretchy headband and set it over your crown (think hippie-style).
2. Start by grabbing a 2-inch section at the front. Lift it up and loop it back toward your face, and tuck it into the headband.
3. Repeat this motion on the next piece of hair, grabbing overlapping sections of your hair and continue around the rest of your head until you reach the opposite side on the front. Then hit the hay.
4. Wake up and remove the headband. Brush through your hair for bigger waves, and finish with a mist of hairspray.
