Unsure of what's appropriate for work and what's not? Retro-tinged updos are a fail-safe style because they tend to have a formal finish. Just keep proportions in check and go easy on the hairspray. Shellacked hair isn't the goal.

Sleek Ponytail
Got straight hair? Prevent face grease from making hair look overly slick with a center-parted low ponytail. This easy ponytail is a good option for those who can't battle humidity but can't quite quit their straighteners.

Center Part Updo
One common summer beauty philosophy is to keep it simple. Save the YouTube tutorials and multiple styling tools for the weekend and ensure you get to work on time by parting hair down the center and knotting it into the look of your choice. It's quick, effortless and chic.

Undone Updo
This updo is the sort of summer hairstyle that gets better the longer it's worn, making it a good option on days you're trapped at work. Gently scoop hair to the back of the head so a bit of slack is left around the face. This is one time you don't want to restrict every single hair. If pieces fall out, leave them be.
