Forget about boho frizz, this year it's all about supersleek strands.

Slicked-Back Bob
If you've been searching for a super stylish, super simple way to style your strands on those mornings where you just don't have the time or energy for an intricate style, look no further than this glossy, slicked-back bob. The straight-back style will keep your hair out of your eyes while ensuring all eyes are on you.

To Get the Look: After hopping out of the shower and combing your hair, instead of plugging in your blow-dryer, reach for a bottle of R + Co Freeway Defining Spray Gel, $29. Designed to bring control to your mane, when paired with wet hair you can expect a frizz-free, locked-in look.

Long and Tucked
If the runways taught us one thing this year, it's that simple, straightforward strands are here to make a statement. Instead of twisting and turning your tresses in a million directions, simply iron them until they're pin-straight and tuck behind your ears for a boss babe hairstyle that's fit for everything from the office to after-work drinks.

To Get the Look: After you've straightened your hair, spritz your strands with the Ouai Rose Hair & Body Oil, $32. In an instant, your hair will look perfectly glossed from your roots all the way down to your ends.

Sleek Side Part
As much as we love a solid middle part, Sally LaPointe reminded us just how stunning a well-executed deep side part can be. The asymmetric design paired with next-level shine screams one thing: boss babe.

To Get the Look: To get the perfect part, use a rat-tail comb to trace a straight line from your hairline back to your crown. Separate the sides of your hair only once you've made it to the back, this will help keep your part crisp and neat.

Polished Low Teardrop Bun
For a slightly more casual, equally as polished look, let your hair fall over your ears while being smoothed back into a low teardrop bun. The low silhouette keeps things sophisticated while the smoothed, over-the-ear finish keeps your overall look simple and ready for whatever the day has in store.

To Get the Look: For the ultimate smooth look with minimal products, use a boar's bristle brush to smooth your hair back into a low ponytail before securing it into a low teardrop bun.

Sleek Accent Braids
Braids are having a serious moment here in 2017, and, like the wet-hair look, there's no sign of them slowing down. So, why not pair the two together? That's what Banana Republic decided to do in this year's SS18 show during NYFW. With a combination of ultra-sleek, pulled-back strands and a perfectly manicured mini accent braid, they introduced the beauty world to one of its new favorite looks.

To Get the Look: Keep a fine-tooth comb handy while weaving your accent braid. Since this look is characterized by a sleek finish, having a comb nearby will allow you to detangle as you go to prevent any unkempt stitches in your braid.
