Initially I was going to call this post “5-Minute Hair Hacks for Busy Mamas,” but you certainly don’t have to be a mom to have too much on your plate to deal with your hair!
That being said, on days when I’m sprinting after my three little ones, the last thing I have the time or energy for is making sure my hair is perfectly blown-out and smooth. Because of that, I’ve mastered a couple quick and easy hairstyles that not only give me one less thing to worry about but also look really cute too! I’ve also stocked up on some products (hello, dry shampoo) that make refreshing messy hair a breeze.
Check out my favorite 5-minute hair hacks on the vlog, and feel free to tell me some of yours! I’m always on the lookout for ways to feel more gorgeous with minimal effort.

You and Danneel could write a whole post about hair accessories, or fashion in general 🙂

I’m with you on the t3. I have the same curling iron. It’s a godsend! I also use Kevin Murphy products. My hair has never looked better.

Hi Gen. I find that I’m allergic to most dry shampoo, so I end up wearing a ponytail on day 2 and washing every other day. Both ponytails and washing too often aren’t good for your hair, but I’m stuck.
One other thing I’d like to mention… I’ve enjoyed your various social media postings, but notice that you do not seem to ever reply to people. People like to feel “seen” by the person they’re writing to. Obviously stay away from trolls, but it would be nice to see the occasional short reply from you. You always ask us to post in the comments – wouldn’t it be nice for us to see that you follow through? I definitely believe you’d get more followers that way. Thanks for (hopefully) thinking about what I’ve said. I’m obviously a fan if I’ve perused several of your social media platforms, and I’m wishing you and your beautiful family the best!

my go to hairstyle for dirty & messy hair is always a top knot or a tight bun but it breaks and splits my ends badly so i was looking for an alternative to that. thanks for these tips.

I have natural curl to my hair(thanks, Mom 😉 so, while some friends think I should grow it out I’m like NO! I’ve done that and it doesn’t work for me. I’m like you, Genevieve…minimum effort but still want great looking hair. I simply keep it short and clean. And when it’s the length I like best it takes about 5 minutes to dry & comb!

These hacks are so helpful. I’m not a mom, just bad at time management so these are going to be a stress saver. Also I love how the Klorans dry shampoo works.

Love that hat! I have the opposite problem…I LOVE hats, but have a big head, plus I have dreads, which adds even more volume to my already large dome, and makes finding hats that fit practically impossible. *sobbing* But hey, I guess I’m saving money because I’m not buying ALL THE HATS! HA!!

I love this!! ❤️

Hi Gen! Love your quick and easy hair hacks!! You mentioned a product by Kevin Murphy (I think), but it’s not listed under “Shop all products”. Can you please list the info for that product? I not only love the dry shampoos, but the curling of the hair ends instead of the whole head. And I really love hats, but cannot wear them cause I think I look goofy every time I try on a hat!!! ?
Many thanks! ?

I had never thought of just curling the sections of hair by my face on flat hair days. That would save so much time and effort! I’ll have to try that next time. Thanks for the great tips and product recommendations!
