Top unwashed hairstyles that scream effort

Life doesn’t always provide enough time (or energy) for freshly washed hair. Perhaps you’ve hit the snooze button too many times, dry shampoo is the only thing keeping your roots in check, or you’re just riding the wave of a really great blowout that’s hanging on for dear life.

The secret is that unwashed hair actually works for you if you know how to style it. The natural texture, the grip, and even the oiliness (yes, really) can be the ideal foundation for styles that appear purposefully effortless.

Changes Salon claims that unwashed hair looks fantastic in braided hairstyles. You’ll be braiding your own hair like a pro after you get the hang of it, though it may take some practice. Unwashed hair actually makes braiding a little simpler since the natural oils in it hydrate it and make it a little more obliging.

If you have a few go-to looks in your back pocket, you can transform lazy wash days into understated fashion moments. Take a look at the below hairstyles, find your favourite:
