Hairstyles radiate style, panache and even your skills. Creative outbursts and ingenious thinking sometime pays off big. Of course, if it’s paying off regularly and without breaks, maybe you should think of opening a salon. For all others, who strike off a goldmine only once a while, read on below for some quick and easy hairstyles.

1. Take out those headbands. Really a hairstyle can’t get any simpler than this. Pep up your normal look with a colorful band. Pick them up in vibrant colors and let them stand out. Choose from cloth or plastic ones. Thin ones look good with high buns while the normal ones can be synched with any style.

2. Braid it. Take equal parts from both sides of your head and loosely braid them, taking them back, where they will eventually meet. Use an elastic rubber band to secure them. Insert pins underneath hair to hold the loose braids.

3. Make your usual bun and stick two chopsticks in a cross, Instant pep! Pencils work too. Plus, it looks super fab.

4. Hair poof it. This style works especially well when hiding or growing out bangs. Take bangs from each side and pull them back. Make a slight bump or poof and secure with pins.

5. Part your hair to a side and then French braid it along the hairline. Secure with a clear rubber band. Leave rest of the hair flow-y.

6. Make a low ponytail. Pull out a strand from the tied hair which is the width and length of a pencil. Wrap this strand around the rubber band/elastic till the band is no more seen. Secure the end of the strand under the ponytail with pins.

7. Sweep hair on all one side. Secure the back with pins to keep hair on one side only. This hairstyle creates tingling drama and is a visual treat.

8. Part a little hair on one side. Pull this parted hair sideways above your ear and secure with pins. Drop top and middle hair over the pins to hide it.

9. Pull some hair on one side. Make a low ponytail but let the hair on side be loose. Take a handful of strands from the ponytail and toss them in front.

10. Make a messy bun. Pull your hair up and make a bun leaving some strands of hair out. Once done, pull out some hair from the bun for a striking look.
